Today we’re looking at information the Church has supplied to their youth who attend LDS Seminary. The kids involved (9th –12th grade) are basically 14-18 years old.
Check out what it says in their ‘Doctrine and Covenants, and Church History’ Manual.

“This Book” in Egyptian Hieratic Writings
In Smith’s estimation of the ungodly hieratic Egyptian writings we’ve learned just how uninspired this man really was but what’s the take away for us personally in our relationship with Jesus?
Was there ever a time you wanted something so badly that it’s all you could think of until you either went out and purchased it or made it happen? Was it because it’s what you wanted or what God had laid on your heart?

I changed my mind – it’s not because I’m female 😉 – we were going to plow through the rest of these hieroglyphics today – but WordPress keeps messing up the graphics so we’re stuck with one or two at a time. 🙁
I keep coming across the same phrase in my bible studies or on the radio lately and it’s prompted me to think upon it more – eternity in heaven. In Revelation 21:4 we read John’s words that our tears will be no more. In the song Amazing Grace the phrase “when we’ve been there 10,000 years…” makes an appearance and these got me to thinking about those things compared to what we’ve looking at here. Can you just imagine what it’d feel like day in and day out with this as your hope?

This is part 2 in our study of Facsimile 2 from the Book of Abraham! We’re looking at the translation of Joseph Smith’s hypocephalus and comparing it with the translations of Egyptologists.
We’ve listed Smith’s translation first in black font and our findings second with red font.

For the next couple of weeks we’re taking a look at Facsimile 2 from the Book of Abraham. In the summer of 1835 Joseph Smith told Michael Chandler, a traveling salesman, that he could interpret the papyri he was marketing through the eastern seaboard of the US.
As it turned out Smith’s interpretation of the papyri and hypocephalus (funerary disk) was ridiculed by Egyptologists who were able to show with definitive proof everything Smith said was a fraud. Chandler’s papyri were excerpts from Hor’s Book of Breathings and The Book of the Dead which were funerary instructions. The hypocephalus was a depiction of Egyptian gods and spells. The Church purchased his wares for $2,400 after Joseph told everyone the papyri were actually writings from the patriarch Abraham. In 1880 Smith’s translations were canonized in Mormon scripture and known today by members as the Book of Abraham.
