Hugh Nibley was the first to discover in the\u00a0<\/em>BG<em>\u00a0a rare personal name that corresponds to the only named character in the Book of Moses besides Enoch himself, a finding that some non-Latter-day Saint Enoch scholars considered significant. Since Nibley\u2019s passing, the growth of new scholarship on ancient Enoch texts has continued unabated. While Nibley\u2019s pioneering research compared the names and roles of one character in Moses 6\u20137 and\u00a0<\/em>BG<em>, scholars have now been able to examine the names and roles of nearly all of the prominent figures in the two books and analyze their respective accounts in more detail. Not only are the overall storylines of the two independent accounts more similar than could have imagined a few years ago, a series of recent studies have added substance to the claim that the specific resemblances of the Book of Giants to Moses 6\u20137\u2014resemblances that are rare or absent elsewhere in Jewish tradition\u2014are more numerous and significant than the resemblances of any other single ancient Enoch text\u2014or, for that matter, to all of the most significant extant Enoch texts combined. Of particular note is new evidence in\u00a0<\/em>BG<em>\u00a0that relates to the Book of Moses account of Enoch\u2019s gathering of Zion to divinely prepared cities and the ascent of his people to the presence of God.<\/em><\/span><br>\n<span id=\"more-49227\" style=\"color: #003300;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #003300;\">[<strong>Editor\u2019s Note:\u00a0<\/strong>Part of our book chapter reprint series, this article is reprinted here as a service to the Latter-day Saint community.

The racial interpretation of a\u00a0few Book\u00a0of\u00a0Mormon verses has contributed to these attitudes and conflicts, yet hundreds of inclusive messages are found in more than half of the book\u2019s verses. God\u2019s message, love, mercy, and justice are for all people. Righteous people did not think themselves above others, nor did they persecute others or start wars. War is tragic and is caused by wickedness. Conspiracies are a\u00a0great evil. Righteous people were kind in their attitudes and actions, regardless of others\u2019 social status or ethnicity. Some Book\u00a0of\u00a0Mormon people even gave their lives or put their lives at risk to act kindly, and some of these went from hating others to giving up their lives on behalf of others. The inclusive messages in the Book\u00a0of\u00a0Mormon are consistent with the position advocated by current Latter-day Saint leaders condemning all racism and disavowing racist hypotheses such as those derived from a\u00a0few Book\u00a0of\u00a0Mormon verses (i.e., that skin color is related to righteousness). The inclusive messages also are consistent with the view that skin color in the Book\u00a0of\u00a0Mormon is not literal but is metaphorical. The Book\u00a0of\u00a0Mormon instructs us that the right way to interact is with love and respect, through examples of people respecting and reaching out to others, promises to all people, condemnation of unkindness and anti-Semitism, calls to all people to repent, and emphasizing the flaws of one\u2019s own group and not those of others.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/journal.interpreterfoundation.org\/the-book-of-mormon-as-a-resurrected-book-and-a-type-of-christ\/\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span style=\"color: #003300;\">George L.

The onomastic rhetoric involving the meaning of\u00a0<\/em>y\u0101rad<em>\u00a0first surfaces in Helaman 6 where Mormon also employs wordplay on the name Cain in terms of\u00a0<\/em>q\u0101n\u00e2 or\u00a0<em>\u201cgetting gain.\u201d The first wordplay occurs in the negative purpose clause \u201clest they should be a\u00a0means of\u00a0<u>bringing down<\/u>\u00a0[cf.\u00a0<\/em>l\u0115h\u00f4r\u00eed<em>] the people unto destruction\u201d (Helaman\u00a06:25) and the second in the prepositional phrase \u201cuntil they had\u00a0<u>come down<\/u>\u00a0[cf.\u00a0<\/em>y\u0101r\u0115d\u00fb\/yord\u00fb<em>] to believe in their works\u201d (Helaman\u00a06:38). Mormon uses these pejorative wordplays as a\u00a0means of emphasizing the genetic link that he sees between Jareditic secret combinations and the derivative Gadianton robbers. Moroni reflects upon his father\u2019s earlier use of this type of pejorative wordplay on \u201cJaredites\u201d and\u00a0<\/em>y\u0101rad<em>\u00a0when he directly informs latter-day Gentiles regarding the \u201cdecrees of God\u201d upon the land of promise \u201cthat ye may repent and not continue in your iniquities until the fullness be come, that ye may not\u00a0<u>bring down<\/u>\u00a0[cf.\u00a0<\/em>*t\u00f4r\u00eed\u00fb\/h\u00f4radtem<em>] the fullness of the wrath of God upon you as the inhabitants of the land hath hitherto done\u201d (Ether\u00a02:11). All three of these onomastic allusions constitute an urgent and timely warning to latter-day Gentiles living upon the land of promise. They warn the Gentiles against \u201ccoming down\u201d to believe in and partake of the works and spoils of secret combinations like the Jaredites and the Nephites did, and thus \u201cbringing down\u201d their own people to destruction and \u201cbringing down\u201d the \u201cfullness of the wrath of God\u201d upon themselves, as the Jaredites and the Nephites both did.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Posted from Elko, Nevada<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 *** \u00a0 Posted earlier today on the website of the Interpreter Foundation: \u00a0 Jeffrey M.
