Publisher's Summary
And this cometh unto you, O ye Gentiles, that ye may know the decrees of God that ye may repent. Following the destruction of the Nephite people, Moroni works in solitude to complete a long-promised translation of an ancient record: the Jaredite plates. Discovered amid the ruins of a lost civilization, this record has captivated Nephites imaginations for centuries. Now Moroni sees foreshadowed therein the spiritual wonders and historical tragedies of his own people. In this brief theological introduction, literary scholar Rosalynde Frandsen Welch explores the book of Ether, a sweeping history in which Moroni, absorbed in the past, turns his heart to future readers whose spiritual fate will be at stake. According to Welch, Moroni's work as translator-prophet brilliantly reframes the nature of scripture itself. Like the brother of Jared's luminous stones, Moroni's offering glows with his powerful testimony of Christ. In faith, his record extends the promise of Christ's saving power to people in every place and time.
