The BOOK
[Stick] of
LEVI (BIBLICAL)
PREFACE
This record evaluates historical knowledge, as it relates to: ------
The BOOK [Stick] of LEVI
Information gleaned from social contexts, both secular and religious, are
reviewed, using
modern genealogical research specialist standards: to properly reconstruct and
correctly
portray real historical lives and family pedigrees. Cultural, religious
and family tradition,
(their stated facts and viewpoints), are surveyed within given ancient contexts
of
primary
and secondary record sources, as handed down for the benefit of our modern
generation.
Genealogy:
A Master Number beginning with three digits is given to the direct line
descending stem. All other descending lineages are ordered according to
where they connect into the direct line of descent as sons or daughters.
They have a dash (-) to show the connection. The Numbers are arranged
by time of birth in the family, where possible, with the direct descendant
being placed where he or she belongs by order of birth. In cases of long
and questionable pedigrees, the lineage is shown descending down, but
with no numbering system attached. Added commentary is author's opinion.

[Research Note:
The Gathering of Israel in the Last Days will require the restoration
of the
Brass Plates of Laban
to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
D&C 77: 11
reveals the massive scope of the gathering of Israel in this, the Latter-days.
It mentions: Q.
What are we to understand by sealing the one hundred and forty-four thousand,
out of all
the tribes of Israel--twelve thousand out of every tribe? A. We are to
understand that those
who are sealed are high priests, ordained unto the holy order of God, to
administer
the everlasting gospel; for they are they who are ordained out of every nation,
kindred,
tongue, and people, by the angels to whom is given power over the nations of the
earth,
to bring as many as will come to the church of the Firstborn. This suggests a
very direct
oversight by mighty angels, such as The Three Nephites and John the Revelator,
among
many others. See:
A Study of the History of the Office of High Priest :: ETD. This gathering
does require careful reconstruction of the records, to restore genealogical
foundations of
the original posterity of the Twelve Tribes; thus aiding Elijah the Prophet, who
holds keys
of administrative authority, on both sides of the veil; turning hearts of the
children, using
callings and elections made sure covenants, of those fully tested; made with
their fathers;
sealing faithful into the Church of the Firstborn; having callings and elections
made sure.
Pedigree fragments currently available, initiate this process, by using Biblical
references.

[Research Note: To assume ancestry of this House of Israel, was composed or
created,
later in generational time, by disingenuous scribes, transcends all rational
credulity.
It suggests an underlying, latent or hidden anti-Semitic, and / or, anti-Zionist
reasoning.]

The Midrash
(Midrash Rabba, Parasha 24) explains this term [Sefer Toldot Adam
(Book of the
history of man), Bereishit (Genesis) 5:1] to indicate that Adam,
the first man, was
given a preview of all the generations that were destined
to descend from
him. God revealed to Adam each generation with its scholars,
each generation and
its wise men, each generation and its writers, each generation
and its leaders.
Adam was the only one who saw the yikhus (or the lineage)
which descended
from him, until the end of all generations. (Yalkut
Shimoni)
The Midrash
incorrectly asserts that the Messiah (who has already come; was born,
lived, and died on
the cross, for the salvation of all mankind; namely, Jesus Christ),
will arrive only
when all those generations that were predestined to live have
in fact been born.
Literally taken, it would be a period of no physical conception.
Enoch, during his
lifetime, testified (Moses
6):
"For a book of remembrance we
have written among
us, according to the pattern given by the finger of God;
and it is given in
our own language." Also, (Moses
7): "And the Lord showed Enoch
all things, even
unto the end of the world; and he saw the day of the righteous,
the hour of their
redemption, and received a fulness of joy;"
Doctrine and Covenants 107 declares that three years previous to his
death, "Adam
stood up in the
midst of the congregation (made up of the residue of his posterity,
who were
righteous); and, notwithstanding he was bowed down with age, being
full of the Holy
Ghost, predicted whatsoever should befall his posterity
unto the latest
generation. These things were all written in the book of Enoch,
and are to be
testified of in due time." See:

- 1204, declaring
Antenor, to the designation of:
"Chief Prince Of Ephraim".
Genealogical Tables of the Sovereigns of the World,
identifies his 1. descending
child as Marcomir. The name, Marcomir, also shows
on the pedigree as a son of
Priamus, a P. in Gaul. Also, listed as 10. Marcomir.
Marcomir is noted four times,
at least, in the Dukes of the East Franks. X Marcomir,
is furthermore listed as a
lineage descendant. By a word comparison construction,
the Brother of Jared was
identified as Mahonri
Moriancumer, in the Book of Mormon.
This suggests that fragments of
Adamic words were preserved within Sicambrian
Kings, the Kings of the West
Franks, from whom the Kings of France are descended.]

D.
Ezekiel 37: 16-19
Moreover, thou son of man [Ezekiel], take thee one
stick,
and write
upon it, For Judah,
and for the children of Israel his companions:
then take another stick, and write upon it, For
Joseph, the
stick of
Ephraim,
and for all the house of Israel his companions: And join them one to another
into one stick; and they shall become
one in thine
hand. And when the children
of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou
meanest by these? Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I
will
take the stick of Joseph,
which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of
Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah,
and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.
1 Nephi 13: 37-42
And blessed
are they who shall seek to bring forth my
Zion at that
day, for
they shall have the gift
and the power
of the Holy Ghost; and if they
endure
unto the end they shall be lifted up at the last day, and shall be saved in the
everlasting kingdom
of the Lamb; and whoso shall publish peace, yea, tidings
of great joy, how beautiful upon the mountains shall they be. And it came
to
pass that I beheld the remnant of the seed of my brethren, and also the
book
of the Lamb of God, which had proceeded forth from the mouth of the Jew,
that it came forth from the Gentiles
unto the
remnant of the seed of my brethren.
And after it had come forth unto them I beheld
other books, which
came forth
by the power of the Lamb, from the Gentiles unto them, unto the
convincing
of the Gentiles and the remnant of the seed of my brethren, and also the Jews
who were scattered upon all the face of the earth, that the records of the
prophets
and of the twelve apostles of the Lamb are
true.
And the angel spake unto me,
saying: These last records, which thou hast seen among the Gentiles, shall
establish
the truth of the first,
which are of the twelve
apostles of the Lamb,
and shall make known the plain and precious things which have been taken
away from them; and shall make known to all kindreds, tongues, and people,
that the Lamb of God is the Son of the Eternal Father, and the
Savior of
the
world; and that all men must come unto him, or they cannot be saved. And
they must come according to the words which shall be established by the mouth
of the Lamb; and the words of the Lamb shall be made known in the records of
thy seed, as well as in the records of the twelve apostles of the Lamb; where-
fore they both shall be established in
one; for
there is one
God and one
Shepherd
over all the earth. And the time cometh that he shall manifest
himself unto all nations, both unto the
Jews and
also unto the Gentiles;
and after he has manifested himself unto the Jews and also unto the Gentiles,
then he shall manifest himself unto the Gentiles and also unto the Jews,
and the last
shall be first, and the first shall be last.
E. The ancient
Books of the Bible,
compared with
Mormon Archaeology,
invalidate the documentary hypothesis theories, traditionally known as:
J, E, P, and D; for the
Torah
and the Deuteronomy history, from Joshua
to Kings. Some modern historians incorrectly state that the Torah
was gradually recorded as the
Hebrew
Bible, between the 5th century
B.C. and the 2nd century B.C. Clearly, internal source evidence from
the
Pearl of Great Price, the
OT
-
NT and the
Book of Mormon, suggest
primary source documents, or
copies thereof, going back to the time of
Adam and (Eve - the Mother of all
Living),
were readily available to
Moses, who then wrote or copied them for himself and other
Israelites.
The
list of biblical figures identified in
extra-biblical sources is compelling.
Additional validation of the Bible, as a surviving
primary source document,
is made by the
Joseph Smith, Jr. Translation of the Bible.
Words added
and corrections made, restore the original formation
and sense of ancient
scribes and prophets, including technical details from
Genesis to Revelation.
Joseph Smith,
Jr. said, [I believe the Bible as it read when it came from the pen
of the original writers. Ignorant translators, careless
transcribers, or designing and
corrupt priests have committed many errors. As it read,
Gen. 6:6, "It repented the
Lord that he had made man on the earth"; also, Num.
23:19, "God is not a man,
that he should lie; neither the Son of man, that he
should repent"; which I do not
believe. But it ought to read, "It repented Noah that
God made man." This I believe,
and then the other quotation stands fair. If any man
will prove to me, by one passage
of Holy Writ, one item I believe to be false, I will
renounce and disclaim it as far as I
promulgated it.]

F. GENEALOGIES:
Genealogical Tables
of the Sovereigns of the World,
from the earliest to the present period; exhibiting in each table their
immediate
successors, collateral branches, and the duration of their respective reigns;
so constructed as to form a series of chronology; and including the genealogy
of many other personages and families distinguished in scared and profane
history;
particularly all the nobility of these kingdoms descended from princes.
[The editor would have gladly quoted the various authorities which have assisted
him
in the execution of his work, under the heads upon which they were consulted, if
it
could have been done without crouding (sic) the Tables, and thereby depriving
them
of their principal advantages--perspicuity, beauty, and uniformity. He must,
therefore,
content himself with mentioning those to whom he is most indebted, which are,
The Bible, The Universal History, with many particular histories of different
kingdoms,
the Classic authors, Anderson's Genealogies,

D"Herbelot,
in his Bibl. Orient. v. Sin, informs us, that the
Arabians make Sin, whom the Persians
and others call Tchin, the eldest son of Japheth,
and say, that from him Sin or CHINA
derives its name. In the same place the same
author further informs us, that the eldest
son of Sin was Matchin; part of the Islamic
tradition that Japheth's beautiful posterity
extended outward to Europe, and northeast CHINA;
through secure trade relationships;
those having been established prior to the
division of the Earth, in the days of Peleg.
Genealogical origins of Middle Eastern and
Asiatic peoples are copiously discussed.

History
of Christianity
[Research Note: Wikipedia incorrectly states that
"Christianity originated with
the ministry of Jesus, a Jewish teacher and
healer who proclaimed the imminent
Kingdom of God and was crucified . . ." It
started with
Adam,
re:
Joseph Smith, Jr.]
- See:
Discourse, 17 January 1843, as Reported by Wilford Woodruff, Page 2
Br Joseph spoke to some length on the kingdom of God & the Baptism of
John,
he said the kingdom of God was set
upon the earth in all ages from the days
of Adam to the presant (sic) time (1)
whenever there was a man on earth who had
authority to Administar (sic) the
ordinances of the gospel or a priest of God &
unto such a man God did reveal his
will Concerning the Baptism of John it was
the Baptism of repentance unto
remission of sins for the receiving of the Holy Ghost
& it was the gospel Baptism. These
were questions which had been in debate for
many years & in some degree among the
Saints. He also spoke upon the subject
of honor & dishonor &c [p. [2]] -
Footnotes - [1] JS consistently taught that people
who were alive before the
establishment of the early Christian church knew of
and worshipped Jesus Christ. Both the
Book of Mormon and JS's revision of the
Old Testament included teachings
about Christ and Christian worship predating
New Testament times. There were,
according to JS, "dispensations and keys and
powers and glories" that had been
"revealed from the days of Adam even to the
present time," Adam having been the
person to whom "Christ was first revealed."
. . . [2] JS elaborated on earlier
instruction, given in 1840, that "the keys of the
Kingdom of God" were on the earth "in
all ages of the world" and constituted
the means by which "all knowledge,
doctrine, the plan of salvation and every
important truth is revealed from
heaven." According to JS, this pattern of revealing
truth to humanity would continue "to
the end of time." . . . [3] JS's reference to the
church as the kingdom of God in this
sermon responded to various disputes in the
nineteenth century among American
Protestants regarding the original founding
date of Christ's church and earthly
kingdom. . . . to the day of Pentecost . . . etc.

Creation and Contingency | Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Religion
[Research Note:
A dispassionate evaluation of records of
beginnings of ancient societies indicates that
creation motifs of all societies, both ancient
and modern, without religious affiliation,
have no fundamental attachable physical reality,
outside of archaeological findings.
Physical determinism of mankind is only
established within Judao-Christian theology.
Faith in the
Messiah originates existence as always following from prior conditions.
An all knowing God eliminates all universal human
contingencies and indeterminism.
The Prophet, Seer, Revelator, and Translator,
Joseph Smith, Jr., High Priest President
of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
Saints, spoke, at the Temple in
Nauvoo.
Joseph spoke on the Spirit of Elias-- the Spirit
of Elijah and the Spirit of Messiah--
the Spirit of Elias is a forerunner same as John
the Baptist-- the Spirit of
Elijah is the
sealing power-- to seal the hearts of the Fathers
to the children-- and the children to
the Parents-- as Paul declared that the Saints of
the last days could not be perfect with-
out them-- neither can they be perfect without
us-- the Spirit of Messiah is all power in
Heaven and in Earth-- Enthroned in the Heavens as
King of Kings and Lord of Lords--
See:
Creation:
The Creation (The
Creation) and Doctrine
and Covenants 77.
Furthermore,
Doctrine and Covenants 101,
verses 32-34, validates
that current,
modern science, will never be able to comprehend or ascertain
the origins,
or destiny of this earth, the solar system, or the Universe;
except on the principle
of
valiant service and sacrifice in the cause of
our King Jesus Christ, who will reveal
all things at His coming in Glory.
Keys of the Universe are restricted to all worthy
Celestial administrators,
such as our Ancient of Days, Father
Adam.
When
Son Ahman
comes,
Adam delivers up his stewardship to Christ, that which was delivered
to him as
holding the keys of the Universe, but retains his standing
as head of the human family.

Rashi's piety and learning were so great, and his

by means of his expositions was so extraordinary,
that his comments are almost
looked upon as part of the Bible, and his
interpretations in the present day are
regarded by the most orthodox Jews as the
authoritative import of Holy Writ.

- SHEM: The Jerusalem Targum, and Jonathan ben Uziel
in his Targum, and several
other Jewish writers, suppose Melchizedek to be the same with
Shem, the son of Noah;
and this supposition has been ingeniously supported by the
editors of Calmet's Dict.
in their Enquiries and Discuss. Vol. III. . . . The Arabic
version, in Gen. xiv. 18, renders
. . . Malko Aladal, considering the word as an appellative
rather than a Proper name.
Probably the Arabic translator might be influenced by the
customary name given to
royalty in his country; for . . . many of the Mohammedan
princes were, as a token of
respect, distinguished by this appellation . . . Malck al
Afdhal. It may not be improper
here to observe, that the Salem above mentioned, was, most
probably, Jerusalem,
antiently (sic) known by the name of Salem--See Ps. lxxxvi.
2. And thus the writers
of the Targums call Melchizedek . . . King of Jerusalem. . .
. Porro Salem [read
Melchizedek] rex Hierusalem dicitur, quae prius Salem
appellabatur.

LDS Studies: The Connection between Melchizedek and
Shem
Melchizedek received his priesthood through the
lineage of his fathers, even till Noah
[means my priesthood came down in time from Adam
to Noah, my father]; from Noah
till Enoch through the lineage of their fathers
[means my priesthood lineage descended
from Adam via Enoch to Noah, my father, through
the lineage of their fathers]; for this
priesthood was received from Enoch to Abel, who
received the priesthood by the hand
of his father Adam. The priesthood lineage is
very clearly recorded; it is a descending
pedigree lineage, anciently from the man Adam, to
the honorable Abel, his slain son
[who was a brother of Seth, another son of Adam:
the actual lineage ancestry of Noah].
[Research Note: Do not interpret ancient
genealogies from the standpoint, or viewpoint,
of modern, unlearned genealogists, who
concentrate on creating ascending research
pedigrees. Until the Patriarchal Priesthood
endowments and covenants were completely
broken, and records discontinued, or
intentionally destroyed; genealogies established,
in the Ancient Book of Remembrance, were recorded
as righteous descending posterity.
Our Father Abraham clearly states he received
handed down records from his fathers.
Apostle Bruce R. McConkie was incorrect in his
creation of gaps in the record source.]
Now Melchizedek was a man of faith, who wrought
righteousness; and when a child
he feared God, and stopped the mouths of lions,
and quenched the violence of fire.
And thus, having been approved of God, he was
ordained an high priest after the
order of the covenant which God made with Enoch.
Shem, the great pre/post flood
High Priest heir of Noah, was ordained an high
priest after the order of the covenant
which God made with the pre-flood High Priest
Enoch; for as a child, Shem feared
God. Shem stopped the mouths of lions, and
quenched the violence of fire, prior
to the Flood, since after the Flood there was no
general wickedness left and there
was only a minimal number of lions remaining upon
the earth. Additionally, according
to Alma, Chapter 13, of the Book of Mormon,
Melchizedek was a High Priest, and was
a king over the land of Salem . . . for he was
the king of Salem, and he did reign under
his father. Noah lived from 2944 B.C. to 1994
B.C. Shem, or Melchizedek, the High Priest
lived from 2452 B.C. to 1852 B.C. Abraham lived
in the time period between circa --
2062 B.C. to 1827 B.C.. Under the Patriarchal
Order, Terah practiced idolatry; unable
to receive tithing. Under the Patriarchal
Order, Nahor died in 2013 B.C.; Shem was alive.
[The Book of Jubilees suggests Nahor was taught
idolatry by his father.] Under the
Patriarchal Order, Serug died in 1961 B.C.; Shem
was alive. [The Book of Jubilees
suggests Serug worshipped idols.] Under the
Patriarchal Order, Reu died in 1984 B.C.;
Shem was alive. [The Chronicles of Jerahmeel
suggest he had the spirit of prophesy;
was righteous.] Under the Patriarchal Order,
Peleg died in 2014 B.C.; Shem was alive.
[The Chronicles of Jerahmeel suggest he was
righteous.] Under the Patriarchal Order,
Eber / Heber died in 1823 B.C. [Shem was alive
until 1852 B.C. and Abraham died
between 1887 / 1827 B.C. Abraham either died in
1887 B.C., before Shem died,
or outlived him by 25 years. Nevertheless, Eber
signifies "the region beyond";
unconnected to Salem.] Under the Patriarchal
Order, Salah / Shelah died in 1884 B.C.;
Shem was alive. Under the Patriarchal Order,
Arphaxad died in 1914 B.C.; Shem
was alive. Shem would have been King of Salem
after the time of the flood, a city
of righteousness, (after they were called to
repentance), under the direction of his father
Noah, who was also a King, for over a period of
350 years. . . . Finally, The Priesthood
was first given To Adam: he obtained to (crossed
out) the first Presidency & held the
Keys of it, from genration (sic) to Generation;
he obtained it in the creation before
the world was formed as in Gen. 1, 26:28, - he
had dominion given him over every living
Creature. He is Michael, the Archangel, spoken of
in the Scriptures, -- Then to Noah
who is Gabriel, he stands next in authority to
Adam in the Priesthood; he was called
of God to this office & was the Father of all
living in his day, & To him was Given the
Dominion. These men held keys, first on earth, &
then in Heaven. -- . . . Dan VII Speaks
of the Ancient of Days, he means the oldest man,
our Father Adam, Michael; he will
call his children together . . . Both Adam and
Noah also obtained the Priesthood Title
of "King"; or in other words, all three were
Prophets, Priests, and Kings, in their own
right; Adam holding furthermore, the very Keys of
the Universe, under the direct
jurisdiction of Jesus Christ. [Also known as the
Jehovah God of the Old Testament.]

Letter to James Arlington Bennet, 13 November 1843, Page 4b
Joseph Smith, Jr. says: Shall I, who hold the
keys of the last kingdom, in which is the
dispensation of the fulness of all things spoken
by the mouths of all the holy prophets
since the world began; under the sealing power of
the Melchizedek priesthood,
shall I stoop from the sublime authority of
Almighty God, to be handled as a monkey's
cat's paw, -- and pettify myself into a clown to
act the farce of political demagoguery?
No, no verily; no! . . . I solve mathematical
problems of Universities; with truth . . .

Since the Patriarchal Priesthood
was the former, and only Priesthood Order of the
ancient Church of Jesus Christ,
that was upon the earth, in the days of Abraham,
then it is necessarily self evident
that Melchizedek was one of the ancient ancestors
of our Father Abraham.] . . .

By October 1831 JS taught that "the order of the
High priesthood is that
they have power given them to seal up the Saints
unto eternal life."

Sigonio finds history to be the noblest

events cannot really be considered men; they are
rather like inexperienced boys

as quoted by Epiphanius Adv. Haer. B. i. p. 287, as noted in
record:
(Jubilees,
Book of – Encyclopedic Dictionary of Bible and Theology);
i.e., the small Genesis, compendium of Genesis, because it
only selects
certain portions of Genesis, although through its lengthy
comments upon
these points it is actually longer than this canonical book
(comp. Epiphanius,
Adv. Hoer. lib. 1, tom. 3, cap. 6, edit. Petav.; G. Syncellus,
p. 8); or, according
to Ewald's rendering of it, (subtillia, minuta) because it
divides the history
upon which it treats into very minute and small periods . . .

Old Testament Revision 2, Page 73; re: Deuteronomy, Ch. 34,
mentioning: "So Mosses (sic) the Servant of the Lord died

him unto his Fathers,

Note under the section
Moses, that he did not physically die; he was translated,
and taken out of the midst of the disobedient. rebellious
House of Israel;
which rebellion ultimately resulted in the crucifixion of our
Lord Jesus Christ,

[Research Note: The world and earth are not synonymous terms.
(The commentaries
by the Prophet Joseph Smith, Jr., are a complete repudiation
of modern science. . . .)
The world is the human family. This earth was organized or
formed out of other
planets which were broke up and remodelled (sic) and made
into the one on which
we live (i.e., unorganized, pulverized elements). The
elements are eternal. That which
has a beginning . . . will surely have an end. Take a ring,
it is without beginning or
end; cut it for a beginning place, and at the same time you
will have an ending place.
A key, every principle proceeding from God is eternal, and
any principle which is not
eternal is of the Devil. The sun has no beginning or end, the
rays which proceed from
himself (the Sun) have no bounds, consequently are eternal
(i.e., a Celestial Planet,
or glorified, eternal Star). So it is with God. If the soul
of man had a beginning it will
surely have an end. In the translation; "without form and
void" it should read "empty
and desolate" The word "created" should be formed or
organized. . . . Observations
on the Sectarian God. That which is without body or parts is
nothing. There is no other
God in heaven but that God who has flesh and bones (in a
Celestial state of being).
. . .
The great principle of happiness consists in
having a body. . . . All beings
who
have bodies have power over those who have not. . . . This
earth will be rolled back
into the presence of God and crowned with Celestial Glory
(i.e., become like our Sun).

Power to Seal on Earth and in Heaven
"The spirit, power, and calling
of Elijah is, that ye have power to hold the key of the
revelation, ordinances, oracles,
powers and endowments of the fullness of the Melchizedek
Priesthood and of the
kingdom of God on the earth; and to receive, obtain, and
perform all the ordinances
belonging to the kingdom of God, even unto the turning of the
hearts of the fathers
unto the children, and hearts of the children unto the
fathers, even those who are
in heaven" (History of the Church 6:251; spelling
modernized). . . . "This is
the spirit
of Elijah, that we redeem our dead (through properly
authorized Latter-day Saint
Temple ordinance work), and connect ourselves with our fathers which
are in heaven
(deceased), and seal up our dead to come forth in the first
resurrection; and here
we want the power of Elijah to seal those who dwell on earth
to those who dwell
in heaven" (History of the Church, 6:252).]

- Isaiah: Book
of Isaiah | Prophecy, Messianic Hope & Historical Context | Britannica
[Research Note: Britannica improperly divides the writings of
Isaiah into two areas
of authorship, ignoring other resources presenting findings
on
Understanding Isaiah.
As mentioned, Nephi taught that the words of Isaiah "are
plain unto all those that
are filled with the spirit of prophecy". The Book of Mormon
prophet Nephi further
stated concerning Joseph, son of Jacob, that "He truly
prophesied concerning all
his seed. And the prophecies which he wrote, there are not
many greater." So this
resolves all problems. The Book of Mormon is true, because it
is not restricted by
time considerations; meaning events going forward for
generations of time, are
known and can be spoken of, as if occurring within the
present generation, of living
prophets, seers, and revelators; such as Joseph of Egypt
speaking in future times,
of the restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, by his
descendants Joseph, father and
son, or Joseph Smith, Sr. and Joseph Smith, Jr.; which only
the faithful comprehend.
This same power of belief, founded upon a perfect faith in
Jesus Christ, grants a JST
Genesis 50 translation, to be valid, when ancient Joseph
prophesied the bondage of
his father's family in Egypt and their eventual deliverance
by Moses, and specifically
names him and his brother, Aaron. Moses was to deliver Israel
from Egypt, have
power over the Red Sea, receive commandments from God, and be
assisted by
Aaron as his spokesman. This belief system is grounded in the
spirit of prophecy.]
- Jablonski: and particularly the Glossarium P. E. Jablonskii Voc. AEgypt.
p. cclii. &c.,
[P. E. Jablonski, who stressed the fact that the Gnostics
liked to represent, Christ
as the Sun (god). From:
Three Elusive Amulets on JSTOR];
[The
risen Christ is our SUN - Wijngaards Institute for Catholic Research].
A Gnostic letter of around 200 AD states that resurrection is
real for us Christians,
because we 'possess' resurrection. "Resurrection of the
spirit", it says, "swallows
resurrection of the psyche and resurrection of the flesh". It
then describes resurrection
of the spirit as "being drawn upward by God as rays are drawn
by the sun". [Research
Note: A partial "resurrection" is described in the Book of
Mormon, in the distinct case
of Three Nephites. In the Book of Mormon, the
Three Nephites
(also known as the
Three Nephite Disciples)
are three Nephite disciples of Jesus who were blessed by
Jesus to remain alive on the earth, engaged in the ministry
and in their apostolic
callings until his Second Coming. As described in Third Nephi
chapter 28, this change
occurred when they were caught up into heaven. Similar to
Mormon beliefs about
John:
the Apostle.
Three Nephites were granted immortality in order to carry out their
ministering work on the earth . . . they can show themselves
unto whatsoever person
or people they choose. Wikipedia falsely denigrates these
facts as "Mormon folklore".]

with God face
to face was taken away; but that which brought the ministry
of angels (i.e.,
The Aaronic Priesthood) remained. All the Prophets had the

Genealogy versus Merit? On the Role of Lineage in Ancient Judaism.
Introduction in: Journal of Ancient Judaism
Volume 11 Issue 1 (2020)
The articles gathered in this
theme issue explore the dynamics of genealogy
and merit in Jewish texts from
the Hellenistic and Roman periods,
in relation to individual family, and
ethnic self-definitions, as well as individual
and group strategies meant to establish
legitimacy, prestige,
or control over other segments
of society.
Royal Genealogies : Or, the Genealogical Tables of Emperors, Kings and Princes,
From Adam to these Times.
James
Anderson (Freemason), D. D.
PART I. Begins with a Chronological History of the World,
from the Beginning of Time to the Christian Era, and then the Genealogies
of the earliest great Families and most ancient Sovereigns of Alia,
Europe,
Africa and America, down to Charlemain, and many of 'em down to these
Times.
PART II. Begins with the Grand Revolution of Charlemain, and
carries on the Royal
and Princely Genealogies of Europe down to these Times, concluding with
those
of the Britannic Isles. See a more particular Account in the Preface
and in the Contents of the Tables. [Research Note: The Royal Genealogies
by James Anderson can be best read by switching to view as plain text,
using the "More actions menu" at the top left side of the front book
page.
Genealogical Tables: Tab. II., or Table Two (2), mention is made of
Antediluvian
Patriarchs, according to Profane History. It should be clearly noted from
a Biblical
perspective, that after the Tower of Babel, naming patterns were
distorted globally,
when the Language of Adam was lost, in its purity, except in peculiar
cases; such
as the
Jaredites,
the greatest nation upon the earth; until destroyed by internal, open
civil warfare, waged across the
length and breadth
of the North American Continent.
Table III. shows Chaldean Kings before the Flood, from
Berosus.
Table IV. mentions
The Egyptians have also a Series of Kings, who, as they pretend, reigned
before
the Flood; and their Account begins the same Year with that of
Berossus. The naming
of the Gods, and Demigods, who are supposed to have reigned in Egypt,
clearly do
show the transliteration of God the Father, or Ahman, and Jesus Christ,
also known
as Son Ahman, into Hephsestion /
Hephaestus, or
Vulcan; as
well as
Helios, or
the Sun.
Ancient Patriarchs and their Priesthood powers were transmogrified into
planetary
designations; originally revealed by the words of Abraham, via Urim and
Thummim.]
The Plates within the Plates:
Ether [Research Note: What was the faith of the Brother
of Jared; also know as Mahonri Moriancumer? Answer:
"And when the Lord had said
these words, he showed unto the brother of Jared all
the inhabitants of the earth which
had been, and also all that would be; and he withheld
them not from his sight, even
unto the ends of the earth. For
he had said unto him in times before, that if he would
believe in him that he could show unto him all
things--it should be shown unto him;
therefore the Lord could not withhold anything from
him, for he knew that the Lord
could show him all things." . . . "They shall
not go forth unto the Gentiles until the day
that they shall repent of their iniquity, and become
clean before the Lord. And in that
day that they shall exercise faith in me, saith the
Lord, even as the brother of Jared did,
(also known as Mahonri Moriancumer), that they may
become sanctified in me, then will
I manifest unto them the things which the brother of
Jared (Mahonri Moriancumer) saw,
even to the unfolding unto them all my revelations,
saith Jesus Christ, the Son of God,
the Father of the heavens and of the earth, and all
things that in them are."]

The Book of Mormon As a Witness of the Old
Testament
Ether 1 . . . twenty and four plates . . . called the Book of Ether
. . . (I, Moroni) suppose that the first part of this
record, which speaks concerning
the creation of the world, and also of Adam, and an
account from that time even
to the great tower (Tower
of Babel), and whatsoever things
transpired among the
children of men until that time, is had among the
Jews-- Therefore I do not write
those things which transpired from the days of Adam
until that time; but they are
had upon the plates; and whoso findeth them, the same
will have power that he
may get the full account. But behold, I give not the
full account, but a part of the
account I give, from the tower down until they were
destroyed. . . .

Decades later,
David
Whitmer added, "We not only saw the plates of the B[ook]

the Book of ether, the Plates
containing the Record of the wickedness of the people
of the world, and many
other plates."

LEVI
(the son of JACOB - ISRAEL)
Family of Levi:
Biblical Genealogy: From Levi to Herod
Levi:
Chart /
House of Israel |
Marriage:
Levi's
wife is Melka, of the
daughters of Aram, of the seed of the sons of Terah;
(Jubilees
34: 20).
D&C 132: 38 David also received
many
wives and concubines,
and also Solomon
and Moses my servants, as also many others
of my servants, from the
beginning
of
Creation until this time;
and in nothing did they sin save in those things which they
received
not of me. [Research Note: This reference from God specifically implies that
Adam, who was at the beginning of Creation, received many wives and concubines,
which would have been given to Adam, by Eve; from some of their female
posterity.
This would be consistent with Mary, the Mother of Jesus Christ; she also being a
spirit
daughter of God, the Eternal Father;
betrothed to God
Ahman,
by
Angel Gabriel
(Noah).
This would have directly involved the full consent of
Heavenly Mother;
as the only means
provided, whereby she could obtain a future return to an eternal association
with all of her
righteous and glorified mortal children. Prophets have taught that our immortal,
celestial,
heavenly parents work together in a united manner, for the total comprehensive
salvation
of the human family; brought to fulfillment through the blood Atonement of Jesus
Christ.]
[Research Note:
Plural Marriage "was believed in and practiced by the ancients";
noted
Brigham Young:
Beneficial Effects of Polygamy (Journal of Discourses). As LDS
President,
Brigham Young also stated "that if you desire with all your hearts to
obtain the blessings
which Abraham obtained, you will be polygamists at least in your faith,
or you will come
short of enjoying the salvation and the glory which Abraham has
obtained. This is as true
as that God lives. . . . The only men who become Gods, even the Sons of
God, are those
who enter into polygamy. Others attain unto a glory and may even be
permitted to come
into the presence of the Father and the Son (in the Celestial Earth
Kingdom; single, or in
a monogamously Temple sealed marriage), but they cannot (fully) reign as
kings in glory,
because they had blessings offered unto them (to have power to save
their own posterity),
and they refused to accept them."
The
Power to Seal on Earth and in Heaven
remained
actively upon the earth until the days of Elijah the Prophet, one of
Messengers with Keys.
Therefore, according to President Brigham Young, Jesus Christ had to
have been married
to more than one wife, before he was exalted. Thus, the New Testament
does not contain
a complete record of the Saints family relationships. Furthermore,
Biblical society clearly
included plural marriage, as it was "believed in and practiced by the
ancients",
(as three
years previous to the death of Adam, he called Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared,
Enoch, and Methuselah; all just high priests, having the Holy Priesthood, after the Order
of the Son
of God, with the residue of his, Adam's righteous posterity, into the green valley
of
Adam-ondi-Ahman);
which society continued on through Shem, or Melchizedek, the son
of Noah; to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, or Israel; down into the later
Christian Gentile era.
This certainly indicates a tremendous disparity in surviving Biblical
records, when actually
compared mathematically, with the high number of global inhabitants, in
pre-flood times.
Section 138, Vision of the Redemption of the Dead (Doctrine
and Covenants 138): "Among
the great and mighty ones who were assembled in this vast congregation
of the righteous
were Father Adam, the Ancient of Days and father of all, And our
glorious Mother Eve,
with many of her faithful daughters who had lived through the (past Old
Testament) ages
and worshiped the true and living God." Adam, or Michael, as the Holy
Patriarchal Head
of the Human Family, by Right, has been delegated to hold the keys of
the resurrection
of the dead, from Jesus Christ, or Jehovah; having previously passed
through that order,
and continuously assists in bringing to pass the crowning of his
posterity with immortality,
and eternal lives, under the direction of Son Ahman, the Messiah, Lord
of Lords, and King
of Kings. President Joseph F. Smith validates tremendous disparity in
surviving Biblical
records,: "I saw the hosts of the dead, both small and great." -- "And
there were gathered
together in one place an innumerable company of the spirits of the just
who had been
faithful in the testimony of Jesus while they lived in mortality;" "They
were assembled
awaiting the advent of the Son of God into the spirit world, to declare
their redemption
from the bands of death." (Thus, this would have been an innumerable
company of spirits
having lived in Old Testament times, as "Their sleeping dust was to be
restored unto its
perfect frame . . .") "While this vast multitude waited and conversed,
rejoicing in the hour
of their deliverance from the chains of death, the Son of God appeared,
declaring liberty
to the captives who had been faithful," Also, this multitude did not
include all the wicked.
Specific mention is made of seeing and critically identifying additional
Old Testament
personalities: Abel, the first martyr; Seth, one of the mighty ones;
Noah, of the flood era;
Shem, the great high priest (Melchizedek); Abraham, the father of the
faithful; Isaac,
Jacob; Moses, the great law-giver of Israel; Isaiah, who spoke of the
Messiah; Ezekiel;
Daniel; Elias, who appeared on the Mount of Transfiguration; and the
prophet Malachi;
"All these and many more, even the prophets who dwelt among the Nephites
and testified
of the coming of the Son of God, mingled in the vast assembly"; waiting
for deliverance.
Furthermore, Jesus Christ mentions in
Matthew 19–23, when asked why Moses permitted
divorce; Jesus Christ declared: "Moses because of the hardness of your
hearts suffered
you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. And I
say unto you,
Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and
shall marry another,
committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth
commit adultery."
Isaiah 3 &
4 notes
Zion and her daughters will be redeemed and cleansed in the coming
millennial day, by the restoration of polygamy: "And in that day, seven
women shall
take hold of one man, saying: We will eat our own bread, and wear our
own apparel;
only let us be called by thy name to take away our reproach"; re:
2 Nephi Chapter 14, as
mentioned in the Book of Mormon;
indicating modern day Zion is yet filthy, beforehand.
Since there was no divorce in the beginning, under the ancient
patriarchal priesthood,
the unity of family associations would have greatly expanded the number
of the children
living upon the earth, down to the time of the period of the
administration of prophet Elijah.
Therefore, it is priesthood unrighteous dominion, in the cancellation of
Temple Sealings,
or civil divorces, and not genetic DNA, that promotes extreme mental
cruelty within lives
of separated posterity; that is the origination of adultery,
fornication; all perverted forms
of biological disorientation of the children; a diminished
World Population Since
Creation.]

Aaronic Priesthood (Levitical):
Doctrine and Covenants 13
Although the Aaronic Priesthood is conferred in the Church today without
restriction
to the lineage of Aaron, the keys of this priesthood rightly belong to
the firstborn of
the seed of Aaron, and in the restoration of all things the office of
bishop (president
of the priests) will once again be conferred on one (or many) of that
lineage, as it
is designated by revelation to the President of The Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-
day Saints. (Doctrine

Consecration: An Everlasting Covenant
[Research Note:
John 8 mentions concerning Jesus Christ: "And early in the morning
he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat
down,
and taught them. And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken
in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, They say unto him, Master,
this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act." The
Sotah (Talmud)
historical reality
of this encounter is testified to within the Sotah, Tractate, as "The Mishnaic
Tractate
Soah deals with the trial by ordeal undergone in the Temple by a sotah, a woman
whose husband suspected her of adultery. In particular, the Mishnaic ritual is
closer
to the punishment of an adulteress . . . the laws of evidence transform the
sotah . . .
to one against whom there is solid evidence of immoral behavior." There is
unbinding
of the woman's hair, rending of the woman's garments (currently, LDS temple
garments,
or requirements forbidding their use or wearing in the future), and inviting
public witness;
or, subject her to buffetings of Satan; a repulsive open abuse; destruction in
naked flesh.]

The
Priesthood was first given to Adam. He obtained the First Presidency and
held
the Keys of it. He obtained it in the creation before the world was formed, and
they
remained on the earth until the Old Testament times of
Elijah the Prophet; the last
of those prophets to hold the Keys of the Sealing Power of the Melchizedek
Priesthood.
All the ancient prophets of the Old Testament times had the Melchizedek
Priesthood.
The Order of the Melchizedek Priesthood was formerly called the High Priesthood
of
the Holy Order of God, or the
Holy Priesthood, after the Order of the Son of God. It is
the
Church of the Firstborn, or glorified
Patriarchal Priesthood celestial heir members.
The sealed family is central to the Creator's plan for the eternal destiny of
His children.
Old Testament Biblical Records include statements concerning High Priests
presiding
in, or holding
Priesthood Keys in
the Melchizedek Priesthood, as well as Bishops, who
hold the mighty sacred keys over
The Aaronic Priesthood:

thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. For I say unto you, Among
those
that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but
he
that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. And all the people that
heard
him, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of dear
John.
Thus, we
carefully
listen to Andrea Bocelli -
Angels We Have Heard On High - YouTube™.
Also: Listen to the
Voice of Jesus Christ, your Lord, your God, and your Redeemer, whose
word is quick and powerful.
And also John the son of Zacharias, which Zacharias he (Elias,
to whom I have committed the keys of bringing to pass the restoration of all
things spoken
by the mouth of all the holy prophets since the world began, concerning the last
days),
visited and gave promise that he should have a son, and his name should be John,
and he should be filled with the spirit of Elias; Which John I have have sent
unto you,
my servants, Joseph Smith, Jun., and Oliver Cowdery, to ordain you unto the
first priest-
hood, which you have received, that you might be called and ordained even as
Aaron.

What Truths Do 1 Nephi and 2 Nephi Teach Us about Jesus Christ?

The Internal Consistency and Historical Reliability of the Biblical Genealogies.
Scott Ray Woodward (biologist)]
extracted and typed DNA going back millions of years.
Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and His
EASTER
resurrection, validated by LDS (D&C
138),
suggest serious reconsiderations on the actual value of DNA studies,
extrapolated back
in temporal time. Foremost of all,
What are resurrected bodies like?, declares they are
physical; and thus, no physical bodies upon the earth for molecular science to
evaluate.
Moroni, who lived in the fifth century AD, additionally is a physically
resurrected being.
So what is left of the ancient molecular past, to scientifically evaluate, are
remains from
wicked societies, and social environments, destined for a future Telestial or
Terrestrial
eternal existence. All these societies, except for Noah and his family
relationships, had
disruptive global flood experiences, degrading and altering their molecular body
purity
(as well as a stated corruption of all flesh, intermingled between animals and
humans).
Additionally, all spirit is matter, but it is more refined and pure, such that
it is infinitely
incapable of being measured by modern technological instruments; nor by DNA
data.
God of course knows all of His spirit children, and knows from the beginnings of
their
spiritual birth in heaven; thus He knows the past, present and future of the
Universe,
knowing beforehand, the beginnings and ends of all the works of His own
Creations.
In conclusion then,
What Truths Do 1 Nephi and 2 Nephi Teach Us about Jesus Christ?
The Book of Mormon
is the greatest primary witness on the face of the earth to validate
the authenticity of the Ancient Biblical Record, with Moroni as the greatest key
witness.
The Prophet Moroni testifies emphatically that the Theory of Evolution is so
completely
false, as noted in
Line upon Line: Moroni 10:3–5. Behold, I would exhort you, that when
ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them,
that ye would
remember how merciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the
creation
of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and ponder
it in your
hearts. . . . And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all
things. . . .
The key element of this witness testimony concerning the real mortal existence
of Adam,
and the factual evidence of the creation of the earth, and all the subsequent related things
thereto, is clearly stated within
The Book of Ether. Moroni specifically abridged the record
of the Jaredites. Therefore, from a professional genealogical research
specialist standpoint,
he is an intimate, personally involved, eye-witness to this account of those
twenty and four
plates which were found by the people of Limhi, which is called the Book of
Ether. Moroni
mentions: "And as I suppose that the first part of this record, which speaks
concerning the
creation of the world, and also of Adam, and an account from that time even to
the great
tower, and whatsoever things transpired among the children of men until that
time, is had
among the Jews-- Therefore I do not write those things which transpired from the
days of
Adam until that time; but they are had upon the plates; and whoso findeth them,
the same
will have power that he may get the full account" (as they are written in Adamic
language).
Additionally
Legal Records,
the Brass Plates,
held in the originating possession of
Laban,
contained not only the Jewish scriptures, but also Lehi's own genealogy back to
Joseph
in Egypt. From a dispassionate, professional genealogical research
specialist standpoint,
this directly relates to the genealogical Truths taught in 1 Nephi and 2
Nephi, Moroni had
access to the Brass Plates of Laban and knew that those records came
forth out of the City
of Jerusalem; and were handed down intact by the seed of originating
Nephite father Lehi.
Nevertheless, the very false theory, or secular doctrine of Evolution is
currently, and very
openly, and proudly; blatantly expounded upon, by open-minded
"scientific" leadership,
from the sacred halls of learning, at
Brigham Young University.
Yet, Nephi, son of Lehi,
had a vision of great significance, recorded in
1 Nephi 13:20–42: Plain and Precious Truths.
In particular, from a genealogical research standpoint,
1 Nephi 13: 23, the Gentiles, or us,
today, had a book, which an angel from the Throne of God in Heaven
declared, stating:
Behold it proceedeth out of the mouth of a Jew (collectively, the
ancestry of the Jews).
"The book that thou beholdest is a record of the Jews, which contains
the covenants
of the Lord, which he hath made unto the house of Israel (from Old
Testament times);
and it also containeth many of the prophecies of the holy prophets; and
it is a record
like unto the engravings which are upon the plates of brass, save there
are not so many;
nevertheless, they contain the covenants of the Lord, which he hath made
unto the house
of Israel; wherefore, they are of great worth unto the Gentiles."
Organic Evolution
is false.

Understanding Historical Dates And Calendars For Genealogical Research
[Research Note: Calendars are part of record keeping. There is no real
physical science
in existence without accurate record keeping, to determine what has
transpired in past
events, or real experiments, to determine what is going on in the
present, or knowing
what calculated future outcomes will be. True and perfect science is
based upon written
testimony, and the testimony of Jesus Christ is the
The Spirit of Prophecy:
true science.
There are the massive amounts of witnesses verifying the origination of
calendar record

Revelation, 27–28 December 1832, Broadsheet [D&C 88:1–126], Page 1
mentions two great
concepts: (1) All kingdoms have a law given; and there are many
kingdoms; for there is no
space in the which there is no kingdom; & there is no kingdom in which
there is no space,
either a greater or lesser kingdom. And unto every kingdom is given a
law; and unto every
law there are certain bounds, also, and conditions. (2) . . . for
intelligence cleaveth unto
intelligence . . . judgment goeth before the face of him who sitteth
upon the throne,
and governeth and executeth all things; he comprehendeth all things, and
all things
are before him, and all things are round about him; and he is above all
things, and in
all things, and is through all things, and is round about all things:
and all things are
by him, and of him; even God, for ever, and ever. From a viewpoint of
heavenly
physics
and
astronomy: there is no vacuum in the Universe; forever having matter
and energy
existing in an intertwined state of being. Furthermore, the Universe is
forever in control,
magnifying the Glory of God, within all its elements; condensing
disparate intelligences.]

Chronology of the Bible: The chronology
of the Bible is an elaborate system
of lifespans, 'generations', and other means by which the Masoretic Hebrew
Bible (the text of the Bible most commonly in use today) measures the passage
of events from the creation to . . . (the year of the re-dedication of the
Second
Temple). . . . The passage of time is measured initially by adding the ages of
the Patriarchs at the birth of their firstborn sons, later through express
statements,
and later still by the synchronized reigns of the kings of Israel and Judah.
Later,
The Great Order of the World, or
Seder Olam Rabbah,
detailed all the dates of
biblical events from creation to
Alexander the Great's
conquest of Persia. Thus,
Traditional Jewish Chronology has long preserved a record of dates and time
sequences of important historical events related to the Jewish nation.
Josephus
painstakingly listed the complete panoply of Jewish high priests
who served
during the
Second Temple
period and which, by comparison of his dates when
each man officiated as high priest, can be used as a time indicator to determine
the span of time in which the Second Temple had its existence. In Early Jewish
Writings,
Flavius
Josephus Against Apion. Book I, expounds upon the historical
accuracy and applications of official Ancient handed down record compilations.
Josephus Rejected the Rebellion Against Rome, Why Did He Celebrate
Chanukah?
. . . "But now as to our forefathers, that they took no less care about writing
such
records, (for I will not say they took greater care than the others I spoke of),
and
that they committed that matter to their (Aaronic) high priests and to their
prophets,
(Ancient Patriarchal High Priests), and that these records have been written all
along down to our own times with the utmost accuracy, nay, if it be not too bold
for me to say it, our history will be so written hereafter, - I shall endeavor
briefly
to inform you. 7. For our forefathers did not only appoint the best of these
(Aaronic)
priests, and those that attended upon the Divine worship, for that design from
the beginning, (or, from the time of Adam and Eve), but made provision that the
stock of the (Aaronic) priests should continue unmixed and pure; for he who is
partaker of the priesthood must propagate of a wife of the same nation, without
having any regard to money, or any other dignities, but he is to make a
scrutiny,
and take his wife's genealogy from the ancient (Bible) tables, and procure
many
witnesses to it. (7) Of this accuracy of the Jews before and in our Savior's
time, in
carefully preserving their genealogies all along, particularly those of the
priests,
see Josephus's Life, sect. 1. This accuracy seems to have ended at the
destruction
of Jerusalem by Titus, or, however, at that by Adrian." [Further relevant

Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away
The Key of Knowledge, the fulness
of
the scriptures; . . . (Indication by Jesus Christ that holy
family records,
genealogies and related family data, were being destroyed by the lawyers.)
Sextus Julius
Africanus wrote a history of the world (Chronografiai) and Kestoi
("Embroiderings"),
the latter work includes a "Letter to Aristides" on the genealogies
of
Christ, of which only fragments are preserved. "But since the Hebrew
families
and those traceable to proselytes, such as Achior the Ammonite . . .
, and Ruth the
Moabitess, and the mixed families which had come out of
Egypt, had until then been
enrolled . . . in the archives . . . ,
Herod, because
the family of the Israelites contributed
nothing to him, and because he was goaded
by his own consciousness of his base birth,
burned the records . . . of
their families, thinking to appear noble if no one else was able
by public documents
. . . to trace his family to the patriarchs or proselytes, to the so--called
gers
. . . of mixed descent." -
Jude and the Relatives of Jesus in the Early Church
(pdf),
by
Richard Bauckham, page 358; from the Translation of Eusebius - footnote #135.
"The Lukan Genealogy of Jesus" further mentions: "We know that Herod was
sensitive
about his Idumaean and therefore only half-Jewish origins, which
many Jews regarded
as disqualifying him from legitimate rule over Israel . . . ,
that his court historian Nicolaus
of Damascus gave him a pure Jewish ancestry .
. . presumably as part of an attempt
by Herod himself to conceal his origins,
and that his fear of rivals to his throne led
to decimation of the leading Jewish
aristocratic families . . ." -
Titus 1: 14
Not giving heed to Jewish fables,
and commandments
of men, that
turn from the truth.]
Continuing, "And this is our practice not only in Judea, but wheresoever any
body of men
of our nation do live, and even there an exact catalogue of our priests'
marriages is kept,
I mean at Egypt and at Babylon, or in any other place of the rest of the
habitable earth,
whithersoever our priests are scattered, for they send to Jerusalem the ancient
names of
their parents in writing, as well as those of their remoter ancestors, and
signify who are
the witnesses also." [Research Note:
Asenath: Bible | Jewish Women's Archive
definitely
appears to be an absolute fictional novel. In
Volume 02 Journal of Discourses, page 269,
Brigham Young notes: "The Book of Mormon came to Ephraim, for Joseph Smith was a
pure Ephraimite, and the Book of Mormon was revealed to him, and while he lived
he
made it his business to search for those who believed the Gospel." Joseph Smith,
Jr.,
as a direct descendant of the ancient Joseph in Egypt, and according to the
patriarchal
law of the Holy Priesthood, after the Order of the Son of God; it would have
been contrary
to family standards to marry out of the pure descendants of the House of
Abraham. This
clearly suggests that when Pharaoh honored Joseph. by giving him as a wife,
Asenath,
"the daughter of Potiphera, priest from the city of On"; she was a relative of
Abraham.
Asenath: Midrash and Aggadah | Jewish Women's Archive addresses this
conundrum.
Accordingly, Ephraim and Manasseh are worthy descendents, who continue Jacob's
way.

Israel in Egypt | The Evidence for the Authenticity of the Exodus Tradition]
"But if any war falls out, such as have fallen out a great many of them already,
. . .
those priests that survive them compose new tables of genealogy out of the old
records,
and examine the circumstances of the women that remain, for still they do not
admit
of those that have been captives, as suspecting that they had conversation with
some
foreigners. But what is the strongest argument of our exact management in this
matter
is what I am now going to say, that we have the names of our (Aaronic) high
priests
from father to son set down in our records for the interval of two thousand
years, and
if any of these have been transgressors of these rules, they are prohibited to
present
themselves at the altar, or to be partakers of any other of our purifications,
and this
is justly, or rather necessarily done, because every one is not permitted of his
own
accord to be a writer, nor is there any disagreement in what is written, they
being
only prophets that have written the original and earliest accounts of things as
they
learned them of God himself by inspiration, and others have written what
happened
in their own times, and that in a very distinct manner also. . . . It is true,
our history
hath been written since
Artaxerxes
very particularly, but hath not been esteemed
of the like authority with the former by our forefathers, because there hath not
been
an exact succession of prophets since that time; and how firmly we have given
credit
to these books of our own nation is evident by what we do, for during so many
ages
as have already passed, no one has been so bold as either to add any thing to
them,
to take any thing from them, or to make any change in them; but it is become
natural
to all Jews immediately, and from their very birth, to esteem these books to
contain
Divine doctrines, and to persist in them, and if occasion be willingly to die
for them.
For it is no new thing for our captives, many of them in number, and frequently
in time,
to be seen to endure racks and deaths of all kinds upon the theatres, that they
may
not be obliged to say one word against our laws and the records that contain
them,
whereas there are none at all among the Greeks who would undergo the least harm
on that account, no, nor in case all the writings that are among them were to be
destroyed, for they take them to be such discourses as are framed agreeably to
the
inclinations of those that write them; and they have justly the same opinion of
the
ancient writers, since they see some of the present generation bold enough to
write
about such affairs, wherein they were not present, nor had concern enough to
inform
themselves about them from those that knew them, examples of which may be had
in this late war of ours, where some persons have written histories, and
published
them, without having been in the places concerned, or having been near them
when the actions were done; but these men put a few things together by hearsay,
and insolently abuse the world, and call these writings by the name of
Histories. . . .
I shall begin with the writings of the Egyptians; not indeed of those that have
written
in the Egyptian language, which it is impossible for me to do. But
Manetho was a man
who by birth an Egyptian, yet had he made himself master of the Greek learning,
as is very evident, for he wrote the history of his own country in the Greek
tongue,
by translating it, as he saith himself, out of their sacred records; he also
finds great
fault with Herodotus for his ignorance and false relations of Egyptian affairs.
Now
this Manetho, in the second book of his Egyptian History, writes concerning us
(Jews)
in the following manner. I will set down his very words, as if I were to bring
the very
man himself into a court for a witness. . . . This whole nation was styled
HYCSOS,
that is, Shepherd-kings: for the first syllable HYC, according to the
sacred dialect,
denotes a king, as is SOS a shepherd; . . . in another copy it is
said that this word
does not denote Kings, but on the contrary, denotes Captive Shepherds,
. . . they built
a city in that country which is now called Judea, and that large enough to
contain
this great number of men, (their whole families and effects, not fewer in number
than
two hundred and forty thousand), and called it Jerusalem. (9) Now Manetho, in
another
book of his, says, "That this nation thus called Shepherds, were also called
Captives,
in their sacred books." And this account of his is the truth, for feeding of
sheep was
the employment of our forefathers in the most ancient ages (10) and as they led
such
a wandering life in feeding sheep, they were called Shepherds. Nor was it
without
reason that they were called Captives by the Egyptians, since one of our
ancestors,
Joseph, told the king of Egypt that he was a captive, and afterward sent for his
brethren
into Egypt by the king's permission. But as for these matters, I shall make a
more exact
inquiry about them elsewhere. [Research Note:
Abel, one of the sons of Adam and Eve,
is recorded as a
keeper of sheep.
The
Contents of the Plates of Brass further validates

Jews.

The Book of Mormon mentions the history of the Jews, further confirming the
words
of Flavius Josephus, including specifically the prophet Lehi genealogy, to circa
600 B. C.;
indicating from this primary source, that Lehi descended from Joseph's son
Manasseh.

many
wives and concubines,
and also Solomon
and Moses my servants, as also many others
of my servants, from the
beginning
of
Creation until this time;
and in nothing did they sin save in those things which they
received
not of me. [Research Note: This reference from God specifically implies that
Adam, who was at the beginning of Creation, received many wives and concubines,
which would have been given to Adam, by Eve; from some of their female
posterity.
This would be consistent with Mary, the Mother of Jesus Christ; she also being a
spirit
daughter of God, the Eternal Father;
betrothed to God
Ahman,
by
Angel Gabriel
(Noah).
This would have directly involved the full consent of
Heavenly Mother;
as the only means
provided, whereby she could obtain a future return to an eternal association
with all of her
righteous and glorified mortal children. Prophets have taught that our immortal,
celestial,
heavenly parents work together in a united manner, for the total comprehensive
salvation
of the human family; brought to fulfillment through the blood Atonement of Jesus
Christ.]
[Research Note:
Plural Marriage "was believed in and practiced by the ancients";
noted
Brigham Young:
Beneficial Effects of Polygamy (Journal of Discourses). As LDS
President,
Brigham Young also stated "that if you desire with all your hearts to
obtain the blessings
which Abraham obtained, you will be polygamists at least in your faith,
or you will come
short of enjoying the salvation and the glory which Abraham has
obtained. This is as true
as that God lives. . . . The only men who become Gods, even the Sons of
God, are those
who enter into polygamy. Others attain unto a glory and may even be
permitted to come
into the presence of the Father and the Son (in the Celestial Earth
Kingdom; single, or in
a monogamously Temple sealed marriage), but they cannot (fully) reign as
kings in glory,
because they had blessings offered unto them (to have power to save
their own posterity),
and they refused to accept them."
The
Power to Seal on Earth and in Heaven
remained
actively upon the earth until the days of Elijah the Prophet, one of
Messengers with Keys.
Therefore, according to President Brigham Young, Jesus Christ had to
have been married
to more than one wife, before he was exalted. Thus, the New Testament
does not contain
a complete record of the Saints family relationships. Furthermore,
Biblical society clearly
included plural marriage, as it was "believed in and practiced by the
ancients",
(as three
years previous to the death of Adam, he called Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared,
Enoch, and Methuselah; all just high priests, having the Holy Priesthood, after the Order
of the Son
of God, with the residue of his, Adam's righteous posterity, into the green valley
of
Adam-ondi-Ahman);
which society continued on through Shem, or Melchizedek, the son
of Noah; to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, or Israel; down into the later
Christian Gentile era.
This certainly indicates a tremendous disparity in surviving Biblical
records, when actually
compared mathematically, with the high number of global inhabitants, in
pre-flood times.
Section 138, Vision of the Redemption of the Dead (Doctrine
and Covenants 138): "Among
the great and mighty ones who were assembled in this vast congregation
of the righteous
were Father Adam, the Ancient of Days and father of all, And our
glorious Mother Eve,
with many of her faithful daughters who had lived through the (past Old
Testament) ages
and worshiped the true and living God." Adam, or Michael, as the Holy
Patriarchal Head
of the Human Family, by Right, has been delegated to hold the keys of
the resurrection
of the dead, from Jesus Christ, or Jehovah; having previously passed
through that order,
and continuously assists in bringing to pass the crowning of his
posterity with immortality,
and eternal lives, under the direction of Son Ahman, the Messiah, Lord
of Lords, and King
of Kings. President Joseph F. Smith validates tremendous disparity in
surviving Biblical
records,: "I saw the hosts of the dead, both small and great." -- "And
there were gathered
together in one place an innumerable company of the spirits of the just
who had been
faithful in the testimony of Jesus while they lived in mortality;" "They
were assembled
awaiting the advent of the Son of God into the spirit world, to declare
their redemption
from the bands of death." (Thus, this would have been an innumerable
company of spirits
having lived in Old Testament times, as "Their sleeping dust was to be
restored unto its
perfect frame . . .") "While this vast multitude waited and conversed,
rejoicing in the hour
of their deliverance from the chains of death, the Son of God appeared,
declaring liberty
to the captives who had been faithful," Also, this multitude did not
include all the wicked.
Specific mention is made of seeing and critically identifying additional
Old Testament
personalities: Abel, the first martyr; Seth, one of the mighty ones;
Noah, of the flood era;
Shem, the great high priest (Melchizedek); Abraham, the father of the
faithful; Isaac,
Jacob; Moses, the great law-giver of Israel; Isaiah, who spoke of the
Messiah; Ezekiel;
Daniel; Elias, who appeared on the Mount of Transfiguration; and the
prophet Malachi;
"All these and many more, even the prophets who dwelt among the Nephites
and testified
of the coming of the Son of God, mingled in the vast assembly"; waiting
for deliverance.
Furthermore, Jesus Christ mentions in
Matthew 19–23, when asked why Moses permitted
divorce; Jesus Christ declared: "Moses because of the hardness of your
hearts suffered
you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. And I
say unto you,
Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and
shall marry another,
committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth
commit adultery."
Isaiah 3 &
4 notes
Zion and her daughters will be redeemed and cleansed in the coming
millennial day, by the restoration of polygamy: "And in that day, seven
women shall
take hold of one man, saying: We will eat our own bread, and wear our
own apparel;
only let us be called by thy name to take away our reproach"; re:
2 Nephi Chapter 14, as
mentioned in the Book of Mormon;
indicating modern day Zion is yet filthy, beforehand.
Since there was no divorce in the beginning, under the ancient
patriarchal priesthood,
the unity of family associations would have greatly expanded the number
of the children
living upon the earth, down to the time of the period of the
administration of prophet Elijah.
Therefore, it is priesthood unrighteous dominion, in the cancellation of
Temple Sealings,
or civil divorces, and not genetic DNA, that promotes extreme mental
cruelty within lives
of separated posterity; that is the origination of adultery,
fornication; all perverted forms
of biological disorientation of the children; a diminished

The
Priesthood was first given to Adam. He obtained the First Presidency and
held
the Keys of it. He obtained it in the creation before the world was formed, and
they
remained on the earth until the Old Testament times of
Elijah the Prophet; the last
of those prophets to hold the Keys of the Sealing Power of the Melchizedek
Priesthood.
All the ancient prophets of the Old Testament times had the Melchizedek
Priesthood.
The Order of the Melchizedek Priesthood was formerly called the High Priesthood
of
the Holy Order of God, or the
Holy Priesthood, after the Order of the Son of God. It is
the
Church of the Firstborn, or glorified
Patriarchal Priesthood celestial heir members.
The sealed family is central to the Creator's plan for the eternal destiny of
His children.
Old Testament Biblical Records include statements concerning High Priests
presiding
in, or holding
Priesthood Keys in
the Melchizedek Priesthood, as well as Bishops, who
hold the mighty sacred keys over
The Aaronic Priesthood:
The Ministering
of Angels.
Priesthood of Aaron restoration was performed by John the Baptist. The
testimony of
Jesus Christ was: This is he, of whom it is written, behold, I send my messenger
before
thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. For I say unto you, Among
those
that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but
he
that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. And all the people that
heard
him, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of dear
John.

resurrection, validated by LDS (D&C
138),
suggest serious reconsiderations on the actual value of DNA studies,
extrapolated back
in temporal time. Foremost of all,
What are resurrected bodies like?, declares they are
physical; and thus, no physical bodies upon the earth for molecular science to
evaluate.
Moroni, who lived in the fifth century AD, additionally is a physically
resurrected being.
So what is left of the ancient molecular past, to scientifically evaluate, are
remains from
wicked societies, and social environments, destined for a future Telestial or
Terrestrial
eternal existence. All these societies, except for Noah and his family
relationships, had
disruptive global flood experiences, degrading and altering their molecular body
purity
(as well as a stated corruption of all flesh, intermingled between animals and
humans).
Additionally, all spirit is matter, but it is more refined and pure, such that
it is infinitely
incapable of being measured by modern technological instruments; nor by DNA
data.
God of course knows all of His spirit children, and knows from the beginnings of
their
spiritual birth in heaven; thus He knows the past, present and future of the
Universe,
knowing beforehand, the beginnings and ends of all the works of His own
Creations.
In conclusion then,
What Truths Do 1 Nephi and 2 Nephi Teach Us about Jesus Christ?
The Book of Mormon
is the greatest primary witness on the face of the earth to validate
the authenticity of the Ancient Biblical Record, with Moroni as the greatest key
witness.
The Prophet Moroni testifies emphatically that the Theory of Evolution is so
completely
false, as noted in
Line upon Line: Moroni 10:3–5. Behold, I would exhort you, that when
ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them,
that ye would
remember how merciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the
creation
of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and ponder
it in your
hearts. . . . And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all
things. . . .
The key element of this witness testimony concerning the real mortal existence
of Adam,
and the factual evidence of the creation of the earth, and all the subsequent related things
thereto, is clearly stated within
The Book of Ether. Moroni specifically abridged the record
of the Jaredites. Therefore, from a professional genealogical research
specialist standpoint,
he is an intimate, personally involved, eye-witness to this account of those
twenty and four
plates which were found by the people of Limhi, which is called the Book of
Ether. Moroni
mentions: "And as I suppose that the first part of this record, which speaks
concerning the
creation of the world, and also of Adam, and an account from that time even to
the great
tower, and whatsoever things transpired among the children of men until that
time, is had
among the Jews-- Therefore I do not write those things which transpired from the
days of
Adam until that time; but they are had upon the plates; and whoso findeth them,
the same
will have power that he may get the full account" (as they are written in Adamic
language).
Additionally
Legal Records,
the Brass Plates,
held in the originating possession of
Laban,
contained not only the Jewish scriptures, but also Lehi's own genealogy back to
Joseph
in Egypt. From a dispassionate, professional genealogical research
specialist standpoint,
this directly relates to the genealogical Truths taught in 1 Nephi and 2
Nephi, Moroni had
access to the Brass Plates of Laban and knew that those records came
forth out of the City
of Jerusalem; and were handed down intact by the seed of originating
Nephite father Lehi.
Nevertheless, the very false theory, or secular doctrine of Evolution is
currently, and very
openly, and proudly; blatantly expounded upon, by open-minded
"scientific" leadership,
from the sacred halls of learning, at
Brigham Young University.
Yet, Nephi, son of Lehi,
had a vision of great significance, recorded in
1 Nephi 13:20–42: Plain and Precious Truths.
In particular, from a genealogical research standpoint,
1 Nephi 13: 23, the Gentiles, or us,
today, had a book, which an angel from the Throne of God in Heaven
declared, stating:
Behold it proceedeth out of the mouth of a Jew (collectively, the
ancestry of the Jews).
"The book that thou beholdest is a record of the Jews, which contains
the covenants
of the Lord, which he hath made unto the house of Israel (from Old
Testament times);
and it also containeth many of the prophecies of the holy prophets; and
it is a record
like unto the engravings which are upon the plates of brass, save there
are not so many;
nevertheless, they contain the covenants of the Lord, which he hath made
unto the house
of Israel; wherefore, they are of great worth unto the Gentiles."
Organic Evolution
is false.

concepts: (1) All kingdoms have a law given; and there are many
kingdoms; for there is no
space in the which there is no kingdom; & there is no kingdom in which
there is no space,
either a greater or lesser kingdom. And unto every kingdom is given a
law; and unto every
law there are certain bounds, also, and conditions. (2) . . . for

intelligence . . . judgment goeth before the face of him who sitteth
upon the throne,
and governeth and executeth all things; he comprehendeth all things, and
all things

things, and in
all things, and is through all things, and is round about all things:
and all things are
by him, and of him; even God, for ever, and ever. From a viewpoint of
heavenly
physics
and
astronomy: there is no vacuum in the Universe; forever having matter
and energy
existing in an intertwined state of being. Furthermore, the Universe is
forever in control,
magnifying the Glory of God, within all its elements; condensing
disparate intelligences.]

and also Solomon
and Moses my servants, as also many others
of my servants, from the
beginning
of
Creation until this time;
and in nothing did they sin save in those things which they
received
not of me. [Research Note: This reference from God specifically implies that
Adam, who was at the beginning of Creation, received many wives and concubines,
which would have been given to Adam, by Eve; from some of their female
posterity.
This would be consistent with Mary, the Mother of Jesus Christ; she also being a
spirit
daughter of God, the Eternal Father;
betrothed to God
Ahman,
by
Angel Gabriel
(Noah).
This would have directly involved the full consent of
Heavenly Mother;
as the only means
provided, whereby she could obtain a future return to an eternal association
with all of her
righteous and glorified mortal children. Prophets have taught that our immortal,
celestial,
heavenly parents work together in a united manner, for the total comprehensive
salvation
of the human family; brought to fulfillment through the blood Atonement of Jesus
Christ.]
[Research Note:
Plural Marriage "was believed in and practiced by the ancients";
noted
Brigham Young:
Beneficial Effects of Polygamy (Journal of Discourses). As LDS
President,
Brigham Young also stated "that if you desire with all your hearts to
obtain the blessings
which Abraham obtained, you will be polygamists at least in your faith,
or you will come
short of enjoying the salvation and the glory which Abraham has
obtained. This is as true
as that God lives. . . . The only men who become Gods, even the Sons of
God, are those
who enter into polygamy. Others attain unto a glory and may even be
permitted to come
into the presence of the Father and the Son (in the Celestial Earth
Kingdom; single, or in
a monogamously Temple sealed marriage), but they cannot (fully) reign as
kings in glory,
because they had blessings offered unto them (to have power to save
their own posterity),
and they refused to accept them."
The
Power to Seal on Earth and in Heaven
remained
actively upon the earth until the days of Elijah the Prophet, one of
Messengers with Keys.
Therefore, according to President Brigham Young, Jesus Christ had to
have been married
to more than one wife, before he was exalted. Thus, the New Testament
does not contain
a complete record of the Saints family relationships. Furthermore,
Biblical society clearly
included plural marriage, as it was "believed in and practiced by the
ancients",
(as three
years previous to the death of Adam, he called Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared,
Enoch, and Methuselah; all just high priests, having the Holy Priesthood, after the Order
of the Son
of God, with the residue of his, Adam's righteous posterity, into the green valley
of
Adam-ondi-Ahman);
which society continued on through Shem, or Melchizedek, the son
of Noah; to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, or Israel; down into the later
Christian Gentile era.
This certainly indicates a tremendous disparity in surviving Biblical
records, when actually
compared mathematically, with the high number of global inhabitants, in
pre-flood times.
Section 138, Vision of the Redemption of the Dead (Doctrine
and Covenants 138): "Among
the great and mighty ones who were assembled in this vast congregation
of the righteous
were Father Adam, the Ancient of Days and father of all, And our
glorious Mother Eve,
with many of her faithful daughters who had lived through the (past Old
Testament) ages
and worshiped the true and living God." Adam, or Michael, as the Holy
Patriarchal Head
of the Human Family, by Right, has been delegated to hold the keys of
the resurrection
of the dead, from Jesus Christ, or Jehovah; having previously passed
through that order,
and continuously assists in bringing to pass the crowning of his
posterity with immortality,
and eternal lives, under the direction of Son Ahman, the Messiah, Lord
of Lords, and King
of Kings. President Joseph F. Smith validates tremendous disparity in
surviving Biblical
records,: "I saw the hosts of the dead, both small and great." -- "And
there were gathered
together in one place an innumerable company of the spirits of the just
who had been
faithful in the testimony of Jesus while they lived in mortality;" "They
were assembled
awaiting the advent of the Son of God into the spirit world, to declare
their redemption
from the bands of death." (Thus, this would have been an innumerable
company of spirits
having lived in Old Testament times, as "Their sleeping dust was to be
restored unto its
perfect frame . . .") "While this vast multitude waited and conversed,
rejoicing in the hour
of their deliverance from the chains of death, the Son of God appeared,
declaring liberty
to the captives who had been faithful," Also, this multitude did not
include all the wicked.
Specific mention is made of seeing and critically identifying additional
Old Testament
personalities: Abel, the first martyr; Seth, one of the mighty ones;
Noah, of the flood era;
Shem, the great high priest (Melchizedek); Abraham, the father of the
faithful; Isaac,
Jacob; Moses, the great law-giver of Israel; Isaiah, who spoke of the
Messiah; Ezekiel;
Daniel; Elias, who appeared on the Mount of Transfiguration; and the
prophet Malachi;
"All these and many more, even the prophets who dwelt among the Nephites
and testified
of the coming of the Son of God, mingled in the vast assembly"; waiting
for deliverance.
Furthermore, Jesus Christ mentions in
Matthew 19–23, when asked why Moses permitted
divorce; Jesus Christ declared: "Moses because of the hardness of your
hearts suffered
you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. And I
say unto you,
Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and
shall marry another,
committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth
commit adultery."
Isaiah 3 &
4 notes
Zion and her daughters will be redeemed and cleansed in the coming
millennial day, by the restoration of polygamy: "And in that day, seven
women shall
take hold of one man, saying: We will eat our own bread, and wear our
own apparel;
only let us be called by thy name to take away our reproach"; re:
2 Nephi Chapter 14, as
mentioned in the Book of Mormon;
indicating modern day Zion is yet filthy, beforehand.
Since there was no divorce in the beginning, under the ancient
patriarchal priesthood,
the unity of family associations would have greatly expanded the number
of the children
living upon the earth, down to the time of the period of the
administration of prophet Elijah.
Therefore, it is priesthood unrighteous dominion, in the cancellation of
Temple Sealings,
or civil divorces, and not genetic DNA, that promotes extreme mental
cruelty within lives
of separated posterity; that is the origination of adultery,
fornication; all perverted forms
of biological disorientation of the children; a diminished

The
Priesthood was first given to Adam. He obtained the First Presidency and
held
the Keys of it. He obtained it in the creation before the world was formed, and
they
remained on the earth until the Old Testament times of
Elijah the Prophet; the last
of those prophets to hold the Keys of the Sealing Power of the Melchizedek
Priesthood.
All the ancient prophets of the Old Testament times had the Melchizedek
Priesthood.
The Order of the Melchizedek Priesthood was formerly called the High Priesthood
of
the Holy Order of God, or the
Holy Priesthood, after the Order of the Son of God. It is
the
Church of the Firstborn, or glorified
Patriarchal Priesthood celestial heir members.
The sealed family is central to the Creator's plan for the eternal destiny of
His children.
Old Testament Biblical Records include statements concerning High Priests
presiding
in, or holding
Priesthood Keys in
the Melchizedek Priesthood, as well as Bishops, who
hold the mighty sacred keys over
The Aaronic Priesthood:
The Ministering
of Angels.
Priesthood of Aaron restoration was performed by John the Baptist. The
testimony of
Jesus Christ was: This is he, of whom it is written, behold, I send my messenger
before
thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. For I say unto you, Among
those
that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but
he
that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. And all the people that
heard
him, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of dear
John.
Thus, we
carefully
listen to Andrea Bocelli -

Also: Listen to the
Voice of Jesus Christ, your Lord, your God, and your Redeemer, whose
word is quick and powerful.
And also John the son of Zacharias, which Zacharias he (Elias,
to whom I have committed the keys of bringing to pass the restoration of all
things spoken
by the mouth of all the holy prophets since the world began, concerning the last
days),
visited and gave promise that he should have a son, and his name should be John,
and he should be filled with the spirit of Elias; Which John I have have sent
unto you,
my servants, Joseph Smith, Jun., and Oliver Cowdery, to ordain you unto the
first priest-
hood, which you have received, that you might be called and ordained even as
Aaron.

extracted and typed DNA going back millions of years.
Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and His
EASTER
resurrection, validated by LDS (D&C
138),
suggest serious reconsiderations on the actual value of DNA studies,
extrapolated back
in temporal time. Foremost of all,
What are resurrected bodies like?, declares they are
physical; and thus, no physical bodies upon the earth for molecular science to
evaluate.
Moroni, who lived in the fifth century AD, additionally is a physically
resurrected being.
So what is left of the ancient molecular past, to scientifically evaluate, are
remains from
wicked societies, and social environments, destined for a future Telestial or
Terrestrial
eternal existence. All these societies, except for Noah and his family
relationships, had
disruptive global flood experiences, degrading and altering their molecular body
purity
(as well as a stated corruption of all flesh, intermingled between animals and
humans).
Additionally, all spirit is matter, but it is more refined and pure, such that
it is infinitely
incapable of being measured by modern technological instruments; nor by DNA
data.
God of course knows all of His spirit children, and knows from the beginnings of
their
spiritual birth in heaven; thus He knows the past, present and future of the
Universe,
knowing beforehand, the beginnings and ends of all the works of His own
Creations.
In conclusion then,
What Truths Do 1 Nephi and 2 Nephi Teach Us about Jesus Christ?
The Book of Mormon
is the greatest primary witness on the face of the earth to validate
the authenticity of the Ancient Biblical Record, with Moroni as the greatest key
witness.
The Prophet Moroni testifies emphatically that the Theory of Evolution is so
completely
false, as noted in
Line upon Line: Moroni 10:3–5. Behold, I would exhort you, that when
ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them,
that ye would
remember how merciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the
creation
of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and ponder
it in your
hearts. . . . And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all
things. . . .
The key element of this witness testimony concerning the real mortal existence
of Adam,
and the factual evidence of the creation of the earth, and all the subsequent related things
thereto, is clearly stated within
The Book of Ether. Moroni specifically abridged the record
of the Jaredites. Therefore, from a professional genealogical research
specialist standpoint,
he is an intimate, personally involved, eye-witness to this account of those
twenty and four
plates which were found by the people of Limhi, which is called the Book of
Ether. Moroni
mentions: "And as I suppose that the first part of this record, which speaks
concerning the
creation of the world, and also of Adam, and an account from that time even to
the great
tower, and whatsoever things transpired among the children of men until that
time, is had
among the Jews-- Therefore I do not write those things which transpired from the
days of
Adam until that time; but they are had upon the plates; and whoso findeth them,
the same
will have power that he may get the full account" (as they are written in Adamic
language).
Additionally
Legal Records,
the Brass Plates,
held in the originating possession of
Laban,
contained not only the Jewish scriptures, but also Lehi's own genealogy back to
Joseph
in Egypt. From a dispassionate, professional genealogical research
specialist standpoint,
this directly relates to the genealogical Truths taught in 1 Nephi and 2
Nephi, Moroni had
access to the Brass Plates of Laban and knew that those records came
forth out of the City
of Jerusalem; and were handed down intact by the seed of originating
Nephite father Lehi.
Nevertheless, the very false theory, or secular doctrine of Evolution is
currently, and very
openly, and proudly; blatantly expounded upon, by open-minded
"scientific" leadership,
from the sacred halls of learning, at
Brigham Young University.
Yet, Nephi, son of Lehi,
had a vision of great significance, recorded in
1 Nephi 13:20–42: Plain and Precious Truths.
In particular, from a genealogical research standpoint,
1 Nephi 13: 23, the Gentiles, or us,
today, had a book, which an angel from the Throne of God in Heaven
declared, stating:
Behold it proceedeth out of the mouth of a Jew (collectively, the
ancestry of the Jews).
"The book that thou beholdest is a record of the Jews, which contains
the covenants
of the Lord, which he hath made unto the house of Israel (from Old
Testament times);
and it also containeth many of the prophecies of the holy prophets; and
it is a record
like unto the engravings which are upon the plates of brass, save there
are not so many;
nevertheless, they contain the covenants of the Lord, which he hath made
unto the house
of Israel; wherefore, they are of great worth unto the Gentiles."
Organic Evolution
is false.

mentions two great
concepts: (1) All kingdoms have a law given; and there are many
kingdoms; for there is no
space in the which there is no kingdom; & there is no kingdom in which
there is no space,
either a greater or lesser kingdom. And unto every kingdom is given a
law; and unto every
law there are certain bounds, also, and conditions. (2) . . . for

all things

things, and in
all things, and is through all things, and is round about all things:
and all things are
by him, and of him; even God, for ever, and ever. From a viewpoint of
heavenly
physics
and
astronomy: there is no vacuum in the Universe; forever having matter
and energy
existing in an intertwined state of being. Furthermore, the Universe is
forever in control,
magnifying the Glory of God, within all its elements; condensing
disparate intelligences.]

Aaronic Priesthood.
And if they be literal descendants of
Aaron
they have a legal right to the bishopric, if they are the
firstborn
among the sons of Aaron; For the firstborn holds the right of the
presidency over this priesthood, and the
keys or
authority of the
same. No man has a legal right to this office, to hold the keys of
this priesthood, except he be a
literal
descendant and the firstborn
of Aaron. . . . And a literal descendant of Aaron, also, must be
designated by this Presidency, and found worthy, and
anointed,
and ordained under the hands of this Presidency, otherwise they
are not legally authorized to officiate in their priesthood. But, by
virtue of the decree concerning their right of the priesthood descending
from father to son, they may claim their
anointing if
at any time
they can prove their lineage, or do ascertain it by revelation from
the Lord under the hands
of the above named Presidency.

Who are the Kohanim: The Story of the Jewish
Priests - Breaking Matzo
C.
In the days of Herod, the King of
Judaea, a certain priest
named Zacharias,
of the course of Abia,
had a wife named
Elisabeth, who was of the daughters of Aaron.
They were the
parents of a special son,
known as
John the Baptist. Zacharias,
according to
the custom of the priest’s
office, burnt incense when
he went into the temple of the Lord. The
course of Abia,
descended
from Abijah
or Abiah, meaning "My father is
Yahweh", in
Hebrew.
Abijah was the name of the head of the eighth of the
twenty-four courses,
a descendant of
Eleazar, the
son of Aaron,
into which King David
had
divided the priests, living in his day.
Later, in Jerusalem, there was
at the Temple Mount, the
Avtinus
Chamber Room,
where incense was
compounded for use in the offerings upon the Golden
Altar.
Beth Ab was the name for the Father's House, the Temple
at Jerusalem.
This holy chamber [Av (father) + tinus; Ab is a variant
of Av, part of Aramaic
abba, father], was named after the Jewish aristocratic
Avtinus family,
merchants and spice makers. According to
The Babylonian Talmud, [Talmud]
Vol. 12, Seder Mo'ed, (Vol. IV), Shekalim, Chapter V,
page 19:
the House of Abtinas [was] over the preparing of the
frankincense.
The
wise men from the east who came into the house where Jesus Christ
lived as a young child (St. Matthew,
2:1-11), saw Him with Mary his mother,
and fell down, and worshipped Him: and when they had
opened their treasures,
they presented unto Him gifts; gold, and frankincense,
and myrrh. Gold was sent
annually to the Temple at Jerusalem, from communal
contributions, suggesting
the wise men
from the east came as legal and lawful representatives from Syria,
Arabia, India or beyond. The presentation of the gift
of frankincense, used as part
of the exclusive Jewish priesthood Temple rite of
sacrifice, at Jerusalem, was a
symbolic recognition of the holy priesthood authority
of Jesus Christ, as Lord
and Royal Master, even as a little child.
The
sayings of Jesus Christ concerning the destruction of the House of the Lord,
were known within the Abtinas family, as noted by
statements of their posterity,
recorded in
The Babylonian Talmud.
[See also: the
Holy Temple Revisited, (1993)].
The righteous tannaim were living libraries of
knowledge, having memorized
tannaitic statements. They were wells of living
water, as in the Temple Teni priests,
even baskets full of books, centered in the supreme
sacrifice of the Chosen One of
Israel, the Messiah Jesus
Christ. It is mentioned in The Babylonian Talmud, Vol. 6,
Seder Nashim, (Vol. II), Kethuboth, Chapter XIII, pages
681-682, that "the house
of Abtinas" (a priestly family) [who were in charge] of
the preparation of the
incense, received their wages from the Temple funds.
The Babylonian Talmud, Vol. 11, Seder Mo'ed, (Vol.
III), Yoma, Chapter III,
pages 176-178, mentions "They of the House of Abtinas"
would not teach
anything about the preparation of the incense, of which
they were expert.
Their smoke ascended [as straight] as a stick. When
the Sages asked why
they, the House of Abtinas, would not teach their art,
the reply was "They
knew in our father's house that this House is going to
be destroyed and
they said: Perhaps an unworthy man will learn [this
art] and will serve an
idol therewith. --- And for the following reason was
their memory kept in
honour: Never did a bride of their house go forth
perfumed, and when they
married a woman from elsewhere they expressly forbade
her to do so lest
people say: From [the preparation of] the incense they
are perfuming
themselves. [They did so] to fulfill the command: 'Ye
shall be clear
before the Lord and
before Israel.' "

Doctrine & Covenants 132
- "Verily, thus saith the Lord unto you my servant Joseph, that
inasmuch
as you have inquired of my hand to know and understand wherein I, the
Lord,
justified my servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as also Moses, David
and Solomon,
my servants, as touching the principle and doctrine of their having many
wives and
concubines---
. . .." Thus it is self evident that Biblical Family Records are
incomplete,
especially in the case of the multitude of wives and concubines of King
Solomon;
since the Old Testament records primarily are concentrated on
"firstborn" posterity.
Jehovah declares Moses did none other things than that which he was
commanded,
which indicates Jesus Christ approves the increase of a righteous man's
posterity;
and Moses has entered into his exaltation, and sits upon his throne, as
a royal God.
D&C 132: 38 David also received
many
wives and concubines,
and also Solomon
and Moses my servants, as also many others
of my servants, from the
beginning
of
Creation until this time;
and in nothing did they sin save in those things which they
received
not of me. [Research Note: This reference from God specifically implies that
Adam, who was at the beginning of Creation, received many wives and concubines,
which would have been given to Adam, by Eve; from some of their female
posterity.
This would be consistent with Mary, the Mother of Jesus Christ; she also being a
spirit
daughter of God, the Eternal Father;
betrothed to God
Ahman,
by
Angel Gabriel
(Noah).
This would have directly involved the full consent of
Heavenly Mother;
as the only means
provided, whereby she could obtain a future return to an eternal association
with all of her
righteous and glorified mortal children. Prophets have taught that our immortal,
celestial,
heavenly parents work together in a united manner, for the total comprehensive
salvation
of the human family; brought to fulfillment through the blood Atonement of Jesus
Christ.]

or you will come
short of enjoying the salvation and the glory which Abraham has
obtained. This is as true
as that God lives. . . . The only men who become Gods, even the Sons of
God, are those
who enter into polygamy. Others attain unto a glory and may even be
permitted to come
into the presence of the Father and the Son (in the Celestial Earth
Kingdom; single, or in
a monogamously Temple sealed marriage), but they cannot (fully) reign as
kings in glory,
because they had blessings offered unto them (to have power to save
their own posterity),
and they refused to accept them."
The
Power to Seal on Earth and in Heaven
remained
actively upon the earth until the days of Elijah the Prophet, one of
Messengers with Keys.
Therefore, according to President Brigham Young, Jesus Christ had to
have been married
to more than one wife, before he was exalted. Thus, the New Testament
does not contain
a complete record of the Saints family relationships. Furthermore,
Biblical society clearly
included plural marriage, as it was "believed in and practiced by the
ancients",
(as three
years previous to the death of Adam, he called Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared,
Enoch, and Methuselah; all just high priests, having the Holy Priesthood, after the Order
of the Son
of God, with the residue of his, Adam's righteous posterity, into the green valley
of
Adam-ondi-Ahman);
which society continued on through Shem, or Melchizedek, the son
of Noah; to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, or Israel; down into the later
Christian Gentile era.
This certainly indicates a tremendous disparity in surviving Biblical
records, when actually
compared mathematically, with the high number of global inhabitants, in
pre-flood times.
Section 138, Vision of the Redemption of the Dead (Doctrine
and Covenants 138): "Among
the great and mighty ones who were assembled in this vast congregation
of the righteous
were Father Adam, the Ancient of Days and father of all, And our
glorious Mother Eve,
with many of her faithful daughters who had lived through the (past Old
Testament) ages
and worshiped the true and living God." Adam, or Michael, as the Holy
Patriarchal Head
of the Human Family, by Right, has been delegated to hold the keys of
the resurrection
of the dead, from Jesus Christ, or Jehovah; having previously passed
through that order,
and continuously assists in bringing to pass the crowning of his
posterity with immortality,
and eternal lives, under the direction of Son Ahman, the Messiah, Lord
of Lords, and King
of Kings. President Joseph F. Smith validates tremendous disparity in
surviving Biblical
records,: "I saw the hosts of the dead, both small and great." -- "And
there were gathered
together in one place an innumerable company of the spirits of the just
who had been
faithful in the testimony of Jesus while they lived in mortality;" "They
were assembled
awaiting the advent of the Son of God into the spirit world, to declare
their redemption
from the bands of death." (Thus, this would have been an innumerable
company of spirits
having lived in Old Testament times, as "Their sleeping dust was to be
restored unto its
perfect frame . . .") "While this vast multitude waited and conversed,
rejoicing in the hour
of their deliverance from the chains of death, the Son of God appeared,
declaring liberty
to the captives who had been faithful," Also, this multitude did not
include all the wicked.
Specific mention is made of seeing and critically identifying additional
Old Testament
personalities: Abel, the first martyr; Seth, one of the mighty ones;
Noah, of the flood era;
Shem, the great high priest (Melchizedek); Abraham, the father of the
faithful; Isaac,
Jacob; Moses, the great law-giver of Israel; Isaiah, who spoke of the
Messiah; Ezekiel;
Daniel; Elias, who appeared on the Mount of Transfiguration; and the
prophet Malachi;
"All these and many more, even the prophets who dwelt among the Nephites
and testified
of the coming of the Son of God, mingled in the vast assembly"; waiting
for deliverance.
Furthermore, Jesus Christ mentions in
Matthew 19–23, when asked why Moses permitted
divorce; Jesus Christ declared: "Moses because of the hardness of your
hearts suffered
you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. And I
say unto you,
Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and
shall marry another,
committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth
commit adultery."
Isaiah 3 &
4 notes
Zion and her daughters will be redeemed and cleansed in the coming
millennial day, by the restoration of polygamy: "And in that day, seven
women shall
take hold of one man, saying: We will eat our own bread, and wear our
own apparel;
only let us be called by thy name to take away our reproach"; re:
2 Nephi Chapter 14, as
mentioned in the Book of Mormon;
indicating modern day Zion is yet filthy, beforehand.
Since there was no divorce in the beginning, under the ancient
patriarchal priesthood,
the unity of family associations would have greatly expanded the number
of the children
living upon the earth, down to the time of the period of the
administration of prophet Elijah.
Therefore, it is priesthood unrighteous dominion, in the cancellation of
Temple Sealings,
or civil divorces, and not genetic DNA, that promotes extreme mental
cruelty within lives
of separated posterity; that is the origination of adultery,
fornication; all perverted forms
of biological disorientation of the children; a diminished

Moses wrote
the
Book of Moses,
part of the
Pearl of
Great Price.
Moses obtained two sets of
tablets (tables of stone), written upon
by JEHOVAH (Jesus Christ): the first being the laws of His Holy
Order (and the ordinances thereof); the second tables being the
set of lesser laws, known
as the Ten Commandments. Jesus Christ
wrote records in heaven, as well
as upon earth, showing by His wise
example, the way back to the presence of His Father: the great Eloheim.
Moses received the Melchizedek Priesthood under the hand of his
father-in-law Jethro.
D&C 84: 6-14 And Jethro received it under
the hand of Caleb;
And Caleb received it under the hand of Elihu;
And Elihu under the hand of Jeremy; And Jeremy under the hand
of Gad; And Gad under the hand of Esaias; And Esaias received it
under the hand of God.
JST Genesis 14: 25-40 And this Melchizedek,
having thus established righteousness, was called the King of Heaven;
a God Title, by his people, or, in other words, the King of Peace; a
God.
Esaias
also lived in the days of Abraham, and was blessed of him--
Which Abraham
[also] received the priesthood from Melchizedek,
who was 013: The great High Priest
Shem, the son of Noah.
The
Priesthood was first given to Adam. He obtained the First Presidency and
held
the Keys of it. He obtained it in the creation before the world was formed, and
they
remained on the earth until the Old Testament times of
Elijah the Prophet; the last
of those prophets to hold the Keys of the Sealing Power of the Melchizedek
Priesthood.
All the ancient prophets of the Old Testament times had the Melchizedek
Priesthood.
The Order of the Melchizedek Priesthood was formerly called the High Priesthood
of
the Holy Order of God, or the
Holy Priesthood, after the Order of the Son of God. It is
the
Church of the Firstborn, or glorified
Patriarchal Priesthood celestial heir members.
The sealed family is central to the Creator's plan for the eternal destiny of
His children.
Old Testament Biblical Records include statements concerning High Priests
presiding
in, or holding
Priesthood Keys in
the Melchizedek Priesthood, as well as Bishops, who
hold the mighty sacred keys over
The Aaronic Priesthood:
The Ministering
of Angels.
Priesthood of Aaron restoration was performed by John the Baptist. The
testimony of
Jesus Christ was: This is he, of whom it is written, behold, I send my messenger
before
thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. For I say unto you, Among
those
that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but
he
that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. And all the people that
heard
him, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of dear
John.
Thus, we
carefully
listen to Andrea Bocelli -
Angels We Have Heard On High - YouTube™.
Also: Listen to the
Voice of Jesus Christ, your Lord, your God, and your Redeemer, whose
word is quick and powerful.
And also John the son of Zacharias, which Zacharias he (Elias,
to whom I have committed the keys of bringing to pass the restoration of all
things spoken
by the mouth of all the holy prophets since the world began, concerning the last
days),
visited and gave promise that he should have a son, and his name should be John,
and he should be filled with the spirit of Elias; Which John I have have sent
unto you,
my servants, Joseph Smith, Jun., and Oliver Cowdery, to ordain you unto the
first priest-
hood, which you have received, that you might be called and ordained even as
Aaron.

What Truths Do 1 Nephi and 2 Nephi Teach Us about Jesus Christ?

The Internal Consistency and Historical Reliability of the Biblical Genealogies.
Scott Ray Woodward (biologist)]
extracted and typed DNA going back millions of years.
Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and His
EASTER
resurrection, validated by LDS (D&C
138),
suggest serious reconsiderations on the actual value of DNA studies,
extrapolated back
in temporal time. Foremost of all,
What are resurrected bodies like?, declares they are
physical; and thus, no physical bodies upon the earth for molecular science to
evaluate.
Moroni, who lived in the fifth century AD, additionally is a physically
resurrected being.
So what is left of the ancient molecular past, to scientifically evaluate, are
remains from
wicked societies, and social environments, destined for a future Telestial or
Terrestrial
eternal existence. All these societies, except for Noah and his family
relationships, had
disruptive global flood experiences, degrading and altering their molecular body
purity
(as well as a stated corruption of all flesh, intermingled between animals and
humans).
Additionally, all spirit is matter, but it is more refined and pure, such that
it is infinitely
incapable of being measured by modern technological instruments; nor by DNA
data.
God of course knows all of His spirit children, and knows from the beginnings of
their
spiritual birth in heaven; thus He knows the past, present and future of the
Universe,
knowing beforehand, the beginnings and ends of all the works of His own
Creations.
In conclusion then,
What Truths Do 1 Nephi and 2 Nephi Teach Us about Jesus Christ?
The Book of Mormon
is the greatest primary witness on the face of the earth to validate
the authenticity of the Ancient Biblical Record, with Moroni as the greatest key
witness.
The Prophet Moroni testifies emphatically that the Theory of Evolution is so
completely
false, as noted in
Line upon Line: Moroni 10:3–5. Behold, I would exhort you, that when
ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them,
that ye would
remember how merciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the
creation
of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and ponder
it in your
hearts. . . . And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all
things. . . .
The key element of this witness testimony concerning the real mortal existence
of Adam,
and the factual evidence of the creation of the earth, and all the subsequent related things
thereto, is clearly stated within
The Book of Ether. Moroni specifically abridged the record
of the Jaredites. Therefore, from a professional genealogical research
specialist standpoint,
he is an intimate, personally involved, eye-witness to this account of those
twenty and four
plates which were found by the people of Limhi, which is called the Book of
Ether. Moroni
mentions: "And as I suppose that the first part of this record, which speaks
concerning the
creation of the world, and also of Adam, and an account from that time even to
the great
tower, and whatsoever things transpired among the children of men until that
time, is had
among the Jews-- Therefore I do not write those things which transpired from the
days of
Adam until that time; but they are had upon the plates; and whoso findeth them,
the same
will have power that he may get the full account" (as they are written in Adamic
language).
Additionally
Legal Records,
the Brass Plates,
held in the originating possession of
Laban,
contained not only the Jewish scriptures, but also Lehi's own genealogy back to
Joseph
in Egypt. From a dispassionate, professional genealogical research
specialist standpoint,
this directly relates to the genealogical Truths taught in 1 Nephi and 2
Nephi, Moroni had
access to the Brass Plates of Laban and knew that those records came
forth out of the City
of Jerusalem; and were handed down intact by the seed of originating
Nephite father Lehi.
Nevertheless, the very false theory, or secular doctrine of Evolution is
currently, and very
openly, and proudly; blatantly expounded upon, by open-minded
"scientific" leadership,
from the sacred halls of learning, at
Brigham Young University.
Yet, Nephi, son of Lehi,
had a vision of great significance, recorded in
1 Nephi 13:20–42: Plain and Precious Truths.
In particular, from a genealogical research standpoint,
1 Nephi 13: 23, the Gentiles, or us,
today, had a book, which an angel from the Throne of God in Heaven
declared, stating:
Behold it proceedeth out of the mouth of a Jew (collectively, the
ancestry of the Jews).
"The book that thou beholdest is a record of the Jews, which contains
the covenants
of the Lord, which he hath made unto the house of Israel (from Old
Testament times);
and it also containeth many of the prophecies of the holy prophets; and
it is a record
like unto the engravings which are upon the plates of brass, save there
are not so many;
nevertheless, they contain the covenants of the Lord, which he hath made
unto the house
of Israel; wherefore, they are of great worth unto the Gentiles."
Organic Evolution
is false.

Understanding Historical Dates And Calendars For Genealogical Research
[Research Note: Calendars are part of record keeping. There is no real
physical science
in existence without accurate record keeping, to determine what has
transpired in past
events, or real experiments, to determine what is going on in the
present, or knowing
what calculated future outcomes will be. True and perfect science is
based upon written
testimony, and the testimony of Jesus Christ is the

Revelation, 27–28 December 1832, Broadsheet [D&C 88:1–126], Page 1
mentions two great
concepts: (1) All kingdoms have a law given; and there are many
kingdoms; for there is no
space in the which there is no kingdom; & there is no kingdom in which
there is no space,
either a greater or lesser kingdom. And unto every kingdom is given a
law; and unto every
law there are certain bounds, also, and conditions. (2) . . . for
intelligence cleaveth unto
intelligence . . . judgment goeth before the face of him who sitteth
upon the throne,
and governeth and executeth all things; he comprehendeth all things, and
all things
are before him, and all things are round about him; and he is above all
things, and in
all things, and is through all things, and is round about all things:
and all things are
by him, and of him; even God, for ever, and ever. From a viewpoint of
heavenly
physics
and
astronomy: there is no vacuum in the Universe; forever having matter
and energy
existing in an intertwined state of being. Furthermore, the Universe is
forever in control,
magnifying the Glory of God, within all its elements; condensing
disparate intelligences.]

Chronology of the Bible: The chronology
of the Bible is an elaborate system
of lifespans, 'generations', and other means by which the Masoretic Hebrew
Bible (the text of the Bible most commonly in use today) measures the passage
of events from the creation to . . . (the year of the re-dedication of the
Second
Temple). . . . The passage of time is measured initially by adding the ages of
the Patriarchs at the birth of their firstborn sons, later through express
statements,
and later still by the synchronized reigns of the kings of Israel and Judah.
Later,
The Great Order of the World, or
Seder Olam Rabbah,
detailed all the dates of
biblical events from creation to
Alexander the Great's
conquest of Persia. Thus,
Traditional Jewish Chronology has long preserved a record of dates and time
sequences of important historical events related to the Jewish nation.
Josephus
painstakingly listed the complete panoply of Jewish high priests
who served
during the
Second Temple
period and which, by comparison of his dates when
each man officiated as high priest, can be used as a time indicator to determine
the span of time in which the Second Temple had its existence. In Early Jewish
Writings,
Flavius
Josephus Against Apion. Book I, expounds upon the historical
accuracy and applications of official Ancient handed down record compilations.
Josephus Rejected the Rebellion Against Rome, Why Did He Celebrate
Chanukah?
. . . "But now as to our forefathers, that they took no less care about writing
such
records, (for I will not say they took greater care than the others I spoke of),
and
that they committed that matter to their (Aaronic) high priests and to their
prophets,
(Ancient Patriarchal High Priests), and that these records have been written all
along down to our own times with the utmost accuracy, nay, if it be not too bold
for me to say it, our history will be so written hereafter, - I shall endeavor
briefly
to inform you. 7. For our forefathers did not only appoint the best of these
(Aaronic)
priests, and those that attended upon the Divine worship, for that design from
the beginning, (or, from the time of Adam and Eve), but made provision that the
stock of the (Aaronic) priests should continue unmixed and pure; for he who is
partaker of the priesthood must propagate of a wife of the same nation, without
having any regard to money, or any other dignities, but he is to make a
scrutiny,
and take his wife's genealogy from the ancient (Bible) tables, and procure
many
witnesses to it. (7) Of this accuracy of the Jews before and in our Savior's
time, in
carefully preserving their genealogies all along, particularly those of the
priests,
see Josephus's Life, sect. 1. This accuracy seems to have ended at the
destruction
of Jerusalem by Titus, or, however, at that by Adrian." [Further relevant

Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away

family records,
genealogies and related family data, were being destroyed by the lawyers.)
Sextus Julius
Africanus wrote a history of the world (Chronografiai) and Kestoi
("Embroiderings"),
the latter work includes a "Letter to Aristides" on the genealogies
of
Christ, of which only fragments are preserved. "But since the Hebrew
families
and those traceable to proselytes, such as Achior the Ammonite . . .
, and Ruth the
Moabitess, and the mixed families which had come out of
Egypt, had until then been

Herod, because
the family of the Israelites contributed
nothing to him, and because he was goaded
by his own consciousness of his base birth,
burned the records . . . of
their families, thinking to appear noble if no one else was able

. . . to trace his family to the patriarchs or proselytes, to the so--called
gers
. . . of mixed descent." -

Richard Bauckham, page 358; from the Translation of Eusebius - footnote #135.
"The Lukan Genealogy of Jesus" further mentions: "We know that Herod was
sensitive
about his Idumaean and therefore only half-Jewish origins, which
many Jews regarded
as disqualifying him from legitimate rule over Israel . . . ,
that his court historian Nicolaus
of Damascus gave him a pure Jewish ancestry .
. . presumably as part of an attempt
by Herod himself to conceal his origins,
and that his fear of rivals to his throne led
to decimation of the leading Jewish
aristocratic families . . ." -
Titus 1: 14
Not giving heed to Jewish fables,
and commandments
of men, that
turn from the truth.]
Continuing, "And this is our practice not only in Judea, but wheresoever any
body of men
of our nation do live, and even there an exact catalogue of our priests'
marriages is kept,
I mean at Egypt and at Babylon, or in any other place of the rest of the
habitable earth,
whithersoever our priests are scattered, for they send to Jerusalem the ancient
names of
their parents in writing, as well as those of their remoter ancestors, and
signify who are
the witnesses also." [Research Note:
Asenath: Bible | Jewish Women's Archive
definitely
appears to be an absolute fictional novel. In
Volume 02 Journal of Discourses, page 269,
Brigham Young notes: "The Book of Mormon came to Ephraim, for Joseph Smith was a
pure Ephraimite, and the Book of Mormon was revealed to him, and while he lived
he
made it his business to search for those who believed the Gospel." Joseph Smith,
Jr.,
as a direct descendant of the ancient Joseph in Egypt, and according to the
patriarchal
law of the Holy Priesthood, after the Order of the Son of God; it would have
been contrary
to family standards to marry out of the pure descendants of the House of
Abraham. This
clearly suggests that when Pharaoh honored Joseph. by giving him as a wife,
Asenath,
"the daughter of Potiphera, priest from the city of On"; she was a relative of
Abraham.
Asenath: Midrash and Aggadah | Jewish Women's Archive addresses this
conundrum.
Accordingly, Ephraim and Manasseh are worthy descendents, who continue Jacob's
way.

Israel in Egypt | The Evidence for the Authenticity of the Exodus Tradition]
"But if any war falls out, such as have fallen out a great many of them already,
. . .
those priests that survive them compose new tables of genealogy out of the old
records,
and examine the circumstances of the women that remain, for still they do not
admit
of those that have been captives, as suspecting that they had conversation with
some
foreigners. But what is the strongest argument of our exact management in this
matter
is what I am now going to say, that we have the names of our (Aaronic) high
priests
from father to son set down in our records for the interval of two thousand
years, and
if any of these have been transgressors of these rules, they are prohibited to
present
themselves at the altar, or to be partakers of any other of our purifications,
and this
is justly, or rather necessarily done, because every one is not permitted of his
own
accord to be a writer, nor is there any disagreement in what is written, they
being
only prophets that have written the original and earliest accounts of things as
they
learned them of God himself by inspiration, and others have written what
happened
in their own times, and that in a very distinct manner also. . . . It is true,
our history
hath been written since
Artaxerxes
very particularly, but hath not been esteemed
of the like authority with the former by our forefathers, because there hath not
been
an exact succession of prophets since that time; and how firmly we have given
credit
to these books of our own nation is evident by what we do, for during so many
ages
as have already passed, no one has been so bold as either to add any thing to
them,
to take any thing from them, or to make any change in them; but it is become
natural
to all Jews immediately, and from their very birth, to esteem these books to
contain
Divine doctrines, and to persist in them, and if occasion be willingly to die
for them.
For it is no new thing for our captives, many of them in number, and frequently
in time,
to be seen to endure racks and deaths of all kinds upon the theatres, that they
may
not be obliged to say one word against our laws and the records that contain
them,
whereas there are none at all among the Greeks who would undergo the least harm
on that account, no, nor in case all the writings that are among them were to be
destroyed, for they take them to be such discourses as are framed agreeably to
the
inclinations of those that write them; and they have justly the same opinion of
the
ancient writers, since they see some of the present generation bold enough to
write
about such affairs, wherein they were not present, nor had concern enough to
inform
themselves about them from those that knew them, examples of which may be had
in this late war of ours, where some persons have written histories, and
published
them, without having been in the places concerned, or having been near them
when the actions were done; but these men put a few things together by hearsay,
and insolently abuse the world, and call these writings by the name of
Histories. . . .
I shall begin with the writings of the Egyptians; not indeed of those that have
written
in the Egyptian language, which it is impossible for me to do. But
Manetho was a man
who by birth an Egyptian, yet had he made himself master of the Greek learning,
as is very evident, for he wrote the history of his own country in the Greek
tongue,
by translating it, as he saith himself, out of their sacred records; he also
finds great
fault with Herodotus for his ignorance and false relations of Egyptian affairs.
Now
this Manetho, in the second book of his Egyptian History, writes concerning us
(Jews)
in the following manner. I will set down his very words, as if I were to bring
the very
man himself into a court for a witness. . . . This whole nation was styled
HYCSOS,
that is, Shepherd-kings: for the first syllable HYC, according to the
sacred dialect,
denotes a king, as is SOS a shepherd; . . . in another copy it is
said that this word
does not denote Kings, but on the contrary, denotes Captive Shepherds,
. . . they built
a city in that country which is now called Judea, and that large enough to
contain
this great number of men, (their whole families and effects, not fewer in number
than
two hundred and forty thousand), and called it Jerusalem. (9) Now Manetho, in
another
book of his, says, "That this nation thus called Shepherds, were also called
Captives,
in their sacred books." And this account of his is the truth, for feeding of
sheep was
the employment of our forefathers in the most ancient ages (10) and as they led
such
a wandering life in feeding sheep, they were called Shepherds. Nor was it
without
reason that they were called Captives by the Egyptians, since one of our
ancestors,
Joseph, told the king of Egypt that he was a captive, and afterward sent for his
brethren
into Egypt by the king's permission. But as for these matters, I shall make a
more exact
inquiry about them elsewhere. [Research Note:
Abel, one of the sons of Adam and Eve,
is recorded as a
keeper of sheep.

The Book of Mormon mentions the history of the Jews, further confirming the
words
of Flavius Josephus, including specifically the prophet Lehi genealogy, to circa
600 B. C.;
indicating from this primary source, that Lehi descended from Joseph's son
Manasseh.

the whole faith of the world, from that time down to the present (now to the

D&C 85: 3-11 . . . And it shall come to pass that I, the Lord
God, will send one mighty and strong, holding the scepter of power in his hand,
clothed with light for a covering, whose mouth shall utter words, eternal words;
while his bowels shall be a fountain of truth, to set in
order the house
of God,
and to arrange by lot
the inheritances
of the saints whose names are found,
and the names of their fathers, and of their children, enrolled in the book of
the law of God . . .
D&C 103: 15-20 Behold, I say unto you, the
redemption
of Zion must needs come by power; Therefore, I will raise up unto my people
a man, who shall lead
them like as Moses led the children of Israel. For ye
are the children of Israel, and of the
seed of
Abraham, and ye must needs
be led out of
bondage by
power, and with a stretched-out arm. And as your
fathers were led
at the first, even so shall the redemption of Zion be. There-
fore, let not your hearts faint, for I say not unto you as I said unto your

Both of these references, written by Editors, David O.
McKay and Richard L. Evans,
incorrectly, erroneously suggest that: "The fact that
Joseph Smith, Jun., was declared
to be 'a pure Ephraimite' cannot mean, in the light of
other scripture, that he was
descended solely from Ephraimite ancestors and no
others. For in Section 113
of the Doctrine and Covenants is a description of the
great Prophet of the latter-days
who should hold the keys of the gathering of Israel.
Those keys were delivered
to Joseph Smith in the Kirtland Temple by Moses."

HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION:
Roman Empire 125 - Vistula Veneti
The Roman empire under Hadrian (117–138 AD), showing the location of the Veneti
(Venedi) east of the upper Vistula region (south-eastern Poland and western
Ukraine).
From a professional genealogical research specialist standpoint, a most
important point
in relation to this group of people, that "populated the land with scattered
settlements",
is found in the fact that their God, named Perun, [acted as the patron saint of
ruling
army units]. The Mokoš — Veles — Perun triangle is a staple of Early Slavic
mythology.
Perun as the god of thunder (Perun derives from Proto–Slavic per–, “to strike”;
so Perun is “the one that strikes”) . . . that “Perun” is not actually a name of
a deity,
but of one of his functions, namely throwing the thunder (lightningbolt).
This comes from evaluation of [Some intriguing petroglyphs (that) were
discovered
in the so-called Cave of Iapodes northeast of Ilirska Bistrica, Slovenia]. Now
it must be
clearly remembered, that when Elijah the Prophet flees to Horeb, [he arose, and
did eat
and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights
unto Horeb
the mount of God. And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and,
behold,
the word of the Lord came to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here,
Elijah?]
Slavic tradition matches Biblical history, in going to a cave. [Perun was also
related
to an archaic form of astronomy – the Pole star was called Perun's eye and
countless
Slavic and Hungarian astronomers continued this tradition – most known ones are
Nicolaus Copernicus, and Franz Xaver von Zach.]
What Does the Bible Say About North Star?
Compare
Israel Tribal Symbols
with
Perun Symbols
[Gromoviti znaci or thunder marks are considered by some scholars
as "ancient symbols of Perun", which are often engraved upon roof beams
or over entries of village houses, to protect them from lightning bolts.]
This is similar to an Israelite putting blood on the doorposts and lintel.
Finally, the land populated with scattered settlements, comports
to the initial combat formations, combined together, to protect
the various fighting independent Tribes of Israel, beginning
with the encampment at Sinai, as noted in
The Military History of Ancient Israel.
Thus, the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel, were [10 of the original 12 Hebrew tribes,
which,
under the leadership of Joshua, took possession of Canaan, the Promised Land,
after the death of Moses. They were named Asher, Dan, Ephraim, Gad, Issachar,
Manasseh, Naphtali, Reuben, Simeon, and Zebulun]. Their original military
formations
and residential living separateness, reappear in Slavic history, especially in
the symbols
for lightning, that are coded graphic military formations, used to gather
together
military units in times of crisis and grave emergency. [And he said, Go forth,
and stand upon the mount before the Lord. And, behold, the Lord passed by,
and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks
before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind: and after the wind an
earthquake;
but the Lord was not in the earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire; but the
Lord
was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice. And it was so, when
Elijah
heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the
entering
in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said,
What doest thou here, Elijah?]

Egyptian Links in
Strabo on the Land of the Jews (22 ce).
(AD 22) Strabo,
living from
63/64 BC to circa AD 24, was a
Greek historian,
geographer
and philosopher.
Looking at Jerusalem from a
"gentile"
perspective, he says:
These districts (of Jerusalem and Joppa) lie towards the north; they
are inhabited generally, and each place in particular, by mixed tribes
of Egyptians, Arabians, and Phoenicians. Of this description are the
inhabitants of Galilee, of the plain of Jericho, and of the territories
of Philadelphia and Samaria, surnamed Sebaste by Herod; but though
there is such a mixture of inhabitants, the report most credited, among
many things believed respecting the temple and the inhabitants of
Jerusalem, is that the Egyptians were the ancestors of the present Jews.
[Paulus or Paullus; (Saul
of Tarsus), circa 5 BC to circa 67 AD, a Hellenistic
Jew, is a genealogical primary source validation of Strabo's report, when
Paul himself, is confused in Jerusalem as being of the race of Egyptians.
]
An Egyptian priest named Moses, who possessed a portion of the country
called Lower Egypt, being dissatisfied with the established institutions
there, left it and came to Judea with a large body of people who worshiped
the Divinity. From
the Biblical standpoint, Moses had a problem with handling
snakes in Egypt (staff of
Moses
transformed into a snake and then back into a staff)
and later Nehushtan.

Phoenicia: Byblos Priests Write Spells to

"The passages, inscribed on the subterranean walls of the pyramid of King
Unas
at Saqqara, reveal that the Egyptians enlisted the magical assistance of
Semitic
Canaanites from the ancient city of Byblos; [Egyptians imported timber and
resin
for
building and mummification (cedar sawdust for mummification and the resin,
known
as Cedria, for embalming.)] "This is a discovery of utmost
importance,"
Bar-Asher said.
"Almost all the words found [in these texts] are also found
in the Bible."
"It's not as
different from biblical Hebrew as some people might
have expected," Yeshiva
University's
Steiner added. "A lot of the characteristics
of Hebrew that we know
from the Bible are
already present in these texts." Continuing,
[The language of the
newly deciphered spells
is so similar to biblical Hebrew, in fact,
that Steiner was able to solve a
long-standing
dispute over the meaning of the word
"pot." Isaiah 3:17 reads, in regard to
the daughters
of Zion, "the Lord will uncover
their pot." By the Middle Ages there
was already a dispute
among biblical scholars
over whether the word referred to the females'
genitalia or to a
part
of their heads,
Steiner said in his lecture. But the use of this rare word
in one of
the Canaanite
spells
appears to settle the question. "From this text it is now clear
the Hebrew term used
by
Isaiah
refers to the female genitalia,"
Bar-Asher, of the Hebrew University, said.]
He [Moses] declared and taught
that the Egyptians and Africans entertained
erroneous sentiments, in representing, the Divinity under the likeness
of wild beasts and cattle of the field; that the Greeks also were error
in making images of their gods after the human form. For God, said he,
may be this one thing which encompasses us all, land and sea, which we
call heaven, or the universe, or the nature of things. Who, then, of
any
understanding would venture to form an image of this Deity, resembling
anything with which we are conversant? On the contrary, we ought not
to carve any images, but to set apart some sacred ground as a shrine
worthy of the Deity, and to worship Him without any similitude. He
taught
that those who made fortunate dreams were to be permitted to sleep in the
temple, where they might dream both for themselves and others; that those
who practiced temperance and justice, and none else, might expect good,
or some gift or sign from the God, from time to time. By such doctrine
Moses persuaded a large body of right-minded persons to accompany
him to the place where Jerusalem now stands. He easily obtained
possession
of it as the spot was not such as to excite jealousy, nor for which there
could
be any fierce contention; for it is rocky, and, although well supplied with
water,
it is surrounded by a barren and waterless territory. The space within
the city is
60 stadia in circumference, with rock underneath the surface. Instead
of arms,
he taught that their defense was in their sacred things and the Divinity,
for whom
he was desirous of finding a settled place, promising to the people to
deliver
such a kind of worship and religion as should not burden those who adopted
it with great expense, nor molest them with so-called divine possessions,
nor
other absurd practices. Moses thus obtained their good opinion, and
established
no ordinary kind of government. All the nations around willingly
united themselves
to him, allured by his discourses and promises. [In the time of
Joshua, Jerusalem
was in territory allocated to the
tribe of Benjamin (Joshua
18:28) but it continued
to be under the independent control of the
Jebusites
until it was conquered
by
David
and made into the capital of the united
Kingdom of Israel (circa 1000 BC).
Recent
excavations of a
Large Stone Structure (Jerusalem) are interpreted
by some archaeologists
as lending credence to the biblical narrative.]
[The Bible states that “Moses the servant of the Lord died” and was buried
by the Lord
(Deuteronomy 34:5-6). But from the evidence of Alma 45, cited above,
there seems to
have been a tradition that
he had been translated or taken away;
it may be suggested
in Doctrine & Covenants 84:25, where we read the Lord “took Moses out of their midst.”
Only one text
known in Joseph Smith’s day suggested that Moses had not died. It is
found
in Josephus,
Antiquities of the Jews 4.8.48. Josephus is not the only Jewish source
for the translation
of Moses. The Babylonian Talmud (Sotah 13b) indicates that some
said
Moses had never
died but was alive and serving on high -- an idea repeated
in other texts
such as Midrash
ha-Gadol, Zot habberakhah 4:5, Sifre to Deuteronomy
357, Memar Marqah, and
Midrash
Leqah Tob. The medieval Zohar reflects the same
tradition.]
His successors continued
for some time to observe the same conduct,
doing
justly,
and worshipping God with
sincerity. Afterwards superstitious persons
were
appointed to the priesthood, and then
tyrants. From superstition arose
abstinence
from flesh, from the eating of which it is now
the custom to refrain,
circumcision,
cliterodectomy, and other practices which the people
observe. The
tyrannical
government produced robbery; for the rebels plundered both their
own and the
neighboring countries. Those also who shared in the government seized
upon
the property of others, and ravaged a large part of Syria and of Phoenicia.
Respect,
however, was paid to the Acropolis [Zion, or the Temple Mount in Jerusalem];
it was
not abhorred as the seat of tyranny, but honoured and venerated as a temple.
. . .
Such was Moses and his successors; their beginning was good, but they
degenerated.
This is also further reinforced by the
Petition
to
Authorize Elephantine Temple
Reconstruction. Mentioned: Darius II, Persian emperor from 425/4 to
405/4 BC,
"To our lord, Bagohi, governor of Yehud,"
(1) Bagohi is one of the names in the lists of Judahites who returned
from Babylon (Return
to Zion, see, e.g., Ezra 2:2; Neh 7:7). In the
Bible
the name is spelled "Bigvai," or in Greek "Bagoas" (e.g., Judith
12:11).
Jews returned to the Land of Israel from the Babylonian exile following
the decree by the Persian King Cyrus, the conqueror of the Babylonian
empire in 538 BC, also known as Cyrus's Declaration.
(2) The name Yehud was used for Judah while it was a Persian province.
[Yebamoth: (יבמות, "Levirate marriage"); (or Yebamot or Yevamot), referring
to the mandated marriage of a widow to her brother-in-law, deals with the
Jewish law of levirate marriage (Deut. 25:5-10) and other topics, such as
the
status of minors. It consists of 16 chapters.] . . . Now, our ancestors
built this
temple in the fortress of Yeb in the days of the kingdom of Egypt; and when
Cambyses II came to Egypt he found it (already) constructed. Cambyses invaded
Egypt in 525 BC. "According to Herodotus (484-425 B.C.), Cambyses, the
son of
Cyrus the Great, sent 50,000 soldiers from Thebes to attack the Oasis of
Siwa
and destroy the oracle at the Temple of Amun after the priests there refused
to legitimize his claim to Egypt." . . . Now, our ancestors built this
temple in
the fortress of Yeb in the days of the kingdom of Egypt; and when Cambyses
came to Egypt he found it (already) constructed. That means that much
before
525 BC, there was an affluent Hebrew community, that had both military and
government status, dealing in trade relations that could amass sufficient
wealth
to build a local temple to the true god [Yahu is one form of the divine name
of
Yahweh, the Israelite god (also: Yo and Yah, as in the names "Yonatan" [1
Sam 14:1]
and "Hodiyah" [1 Chron 4:19]).]. . . . "they entered the temple and burned
it to
the ground. They smashed the stone pillars that were there. They
demolished
five great gateways constructed of hewn blocks of stone which were in the
temple;
but their doors (are still standing), and the hinges of those doors are made
of bronze.
And the roof of cedar in its entirety, with the . . . and whatever else was
there, were
all burned with fire. As for the basins of gold and silver and other
articles that were
in the temple, they carried all of them off and took them as personal
possessions."

"During the Twenty-Sixth Dynasty, mercenaries and foreign soldiers served
as
combatants
in the Egyptian army. They were first attested during the reign
of Psammetichus I and their
presence increased constantly. They came from
mainland Greece, the Aegean
Islands, Caria,
Lydia, Libya, Kush, Phoenicia,
Aram, Israel, and Judah. They are mentioned
on private stelae,
and in
administrative and legal papyri, biblical books, classical sources,
Egyptian
and Assyrian
royal inscriptions, and their presence is also demonstrated
by archaeological finds."
The Semitic Influence in Ancient Egypt:
"Daphnae
was supposed to have been built
in the time of the 26th dynasty
in about 664 BC and existed until about 565
BC."
When King Psammetichus
(ie. Psamtik II) came to Elephantine, this was
written
by those who sailed
with Psammetichus the son of Theocles, and they came
beyond Kerkis
as far as the river permits. Those who spoke foreign tongues
(Greek and Carians who also scratched their names on the monument) were
led by Potasimto, the Egyptians by Amasis. Later, in 591 BC,
during the fourth
year of his reign,
Psamtik II launched an expedition into Palestine "to foment a
general Levantine revolt against the Babylonians" that involved, among
other,
Zedekiah of the Kingdom of Judah.
"The treaty's provision dealt with an actual
situation. It casts additional light on the story of martyrdom as told
in the Bible:
the story of mutilated prisoners, slaughtered children, and deportations;
and the
story of these few who escaped from the horrors of torture, of their flight
to Egypt,
and of the long arm that reached out for the refugees into the land of their
asylum.

GERSHOM
(the son of MOSES)
Family of Gershom:

Marriage:
D&C 132: 38 David also received
many
wives and concubines,
and also Solomon
and Moses my servants, as also many others
of my servants, from the
beginning
of
Creation until this time;
and in nothing did they sin save in those things which they
received
not of me. [Research Note: This reference from God specifically implies that
Adam, who was at the beginning of Creation, received many wives and concubines,
which would have been given to Adam, by Eve; from some of their female
posterity.
This would be consistent with Mary, the Mother of Jesus Christ; she also being a
spirit
daughter of God, the Eternal Father;
betrothed to God
Ahman,
by
Angel Gabriel
(Noah).
This would have directly involved the full consent of
Heavenly Mother;
as the only means
provided, whereby she could obtain a future return to an eternal association
with all of her
righteous and glorified mortal children. Prophets have taught that our immortal,
celestial,
heavenly parents work together in a united manner, for the total comprehensive
salvation
of the human family; brought to fulfillment through the blood Atonement of Jesus
Christ.]
[Research Note:
Plural Marriage "was believed in and practiced by the ancients";
noted
Brigham Young:
Beneficial Effects of Polygamy (Journal of Discourses). As LDS
President,
Brigham Young also stated "that if you desire with all your hearts to
obtain the blessings
which Abraham obtained, you will be polygamists at least in your faith,
or you will come
short of enjoying the salvation and the glory which Abraham has
obtained. This is as true
as that God lives. . . . The only men who become Gods, even the Sons of
God, are those
who enter into polygamy. Others attain unto a glory and may even be
permitted to come
into the presence of the Father and the Son (in the Celestial Earth
Kingdom; single, or in
a monogamously Temple sealed marriage), but they cannot (fully) reign as
kings in glory,
because they had blessings offered unto them (to have power to save
their own posterity),
and they refused to accept them."
The
Power to Seal on Earth and in Heaven
remained
actively upon the earth until the days of Elijah the Prophet, one of
Messengers with Keys.
Therefore, according to President Brigham Young, Jesus Christ had to
have been married
to more than one wife, before he was exalted. Thus, the New Testament
does not contain
a complete record of the Saints family relationships. Furthermore,
Biblical society clearly
included plural marriage, as it was "believed in and practiced by the
ancients",
(as three
years previous to the death of Adam, he called Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared,
Enoch, and Methuselah; all just high priests, having the Holy Priesthood, after the Order
of the Son
of God, with the residue of his, Adam's righteous posterity, into the green valley
of
Adam-ondi-Ahman);
which society continued on through Shem, or Melchizedek, the son
of Noah; to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, or Israel; down into the later
Christian Gentile era.
This certainly indicates a tremendous disparity in surviving Biblical
records, when actually
compared mathematically, with the high number of global inhabitants, in
pre-flood times.
Section 138, Vision of the Redemption of the Dead (Doctrine
and Covenants 138): "Among
the great and mighty ones who were assembled in this vast congregation
of the righteous
were Father Adam, the Ancient of Days and father of all, And our
glorious Mother Eve,
with many of her faithful daughters who had lived through the (past Old
Testament) ages
and worshiped the true and living God." Adam, or Michael, as the Holy
Patriarchal Head
of the Human Family, by Right, has been delegated to hold the keys of
the resurrection
of the dead, from Jesus Christ, or Jehovah; having previously passed
through that order,
and continuously assists in bringing to pass the crowning of his
posterity with immortality,
and eternal lives, under the direction of Son Ahman, the Messiah, Lord
of Lords, and King
of Kings. President Joseph F. Smith validates tremendous disparity in
surviving Biblical
records,: "I saw the hosts of the dead, both small and great." -- "And
there were gathered
together in one place an innumerable company of the spirits of the just
who had been
faithful in the testimony of Jesus while they lived in mortality;" "They
were assembled
awaiting the advent of the Son of God into the spirit world, to declare
their redemption
from the bands of death." (Thus, this would have been an innumerable
company of spirits
having lived in Old Testament times, as "Their sleeping dust was to be
restored unto its
perfect frame . . .") "While this vast multitude waited and conversed,
rejoicing in the hour
of their deliverance from the chains of death, the Son of God appeared,
declaring liberty
to the captives who had been faithful," Also, this multitude did not
include all the wicked.
Specific mention is made of seeing and critically identifying additional
Old Testament
personalities: Abel, the first martyr; Seth, one of the mighty ones;
Noah, of the flood era;
Shem, the great high priest (Melchizedek); Abraham, the father of the
faithful; Isaac,
Jacob; Moses, the great law-giver of Israel; Isaiah, who spoke of the
Messiah; Ezekiel;
Daniel; Elias, who appeared on the Mount of Transfiguration; and the
prophet Malachi;
"All these and many more, even the prophets who dwelt among the Nephites
and testified
of the coming of the Son of God, mingled in the vast assembly"; waiting
for deliverance.
Furthermore, Jesus Christ mentions in
Matthew 19–23, when asked why Moses permitted
divorce; Jesus Christ declared: "Moses because of the hardness of your
hearts suffered
you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. And I
say unto you,
Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and
shall marry another,
committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth
commit adultery."
Isaiah 3 &
4 notes
Zion and her daughters will be redeemed and cleansed in the coming
millennial day, by the restoration of polygamy: "And in that day, seven
women shall
take hold of one man, saying: We will eat our own bread, and wear our
own apparel;
only let us be called by thy name to take away our reproach"; re:
2 Nephi Chapter 14, as
mentioned in the Book of Mormon;
indicating modern day Zion is yet filthy, beforehand.
Since there was no divorce in the beginning, under the ancient
patriarchal priesthood,
the unity of family associations would have greatly expanded the number
of the children
living upon the earth, down to the time of the period of the
administration of prophet Elijah.
Therefore, it is priesthood unrighteous dominion, in the cancellation of
Temple Sealings,
or civil divorces, and not genetic DNA, that promotes extreme mental
cruelty within lives
of separated posterity; that is the origination of adultery,
fornication; all perverted forms
of biological disorientation of the children; a diminished

The
Priesthood was first given to Adam. He obtained the First Presidency and
held
the Keys of it. He obtained it in the creation before the world was formed, and
they
remained on the earth until the Old Testament times of
Elijah the Prophet; the last
of those prophets to hold the Keys of the Sealing Power of the Melchizedek
Priesthood.
All the ancient prophets of the Old Testament times had the Melchizedek
Priesthood.
The Order of the Melchizedek Priesthood was formerly called the High Priesthood
of
the Holy Order of God, or the
Holy Priesthood, after the Order of the Son of God. It is
the
Church of the Firstborn, or glorified
Patriarchal Priesthood celestial heir members.
The sealed family is central to the Creator's plan for the eternal destiny of
His children.
Old Testament Biblical Records include statements concerning High Priests
presiding
in, or holding
Priesthood Keys in
the Melchizedek Priesthood, as well as Bishops, who
hold the mighty sacred keys over
The Aaronic Priesthood:
The Ministering
of Angels.
Priesthood of Aaron restoration was performed by John the Baptist. The
testimony of
Jesus Christ was: This is he, of whom it is written, behold, I send my messenger
before
thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. For I say unto you, Among
those
that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but
he
that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. And all the people that
heard
him, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of dear
John.
Thus, we
carefully
listen to Andrea Bocelli -
Angels We Have Heard On High - YouTube™.
Also: Listen to the
Voice of Jesus Christ, your Lord, your God, and your Redeemer, whose
word is quick and powerful.
And also John the son of Zacharias, which Zacharias he (Elias,
to whom I have committed the keys of bringing to pass the restoration of all
things spoken
by the mouth of all the holy prophets since the world began, concerning the last
days),
visited and gave promise that he should have a son, and his name should be John,
and he should be filled with the spirit of Elias; Which John I have have sent
unto you,
my servants, Joseph Smith, Jun., and Oliver Cowdery, to ordain you unto the
first priest-
hood, which you have received, that you might be called and ordained even as
Aaron.

resurrection, validated by LDS (D&C
138),
suggest serious reconsiderations on the actual value of DNA studies,
extrapolated back
in temporal time. Foremost of all,
What are resurrected bodies like?, declares they are
physical; and thus, no physical bodies upon the earth for molecular science to
evaluate.
Moroni, who lived in the fifth century AD, additionally is a physically
resurrected being.
So what is left of the ancient molecular past, to scientifically evaluate, are
remains from
wicked societies, and social environments, destined for a future Telestial or
Terrestrial
eternal existence. All these societies, except for Noah and his family
relationships, had
disruptive global flood experiences, degrading and altering their molecular body
purity
(as well as a stated corruption of all flesh, intermingled between animals and
humans).
Additionally, all spirit is matter, but it is more refined and pure, such that
it is infinitely
incapable of being measured by modern technological instruments; nor by DNA
data.
God of course knows all of His spirit children, and knows from the beginnings of
their
spiritual birth in heaven; thus He knows the past, present and future of the
Universe,
knowing beforehand, the beginnings and ends of all the works of His own
Creations.
In conclusion then,
What Truths Do 1 Nephi and 2 Nephi Teach Us about Jesus Christ?
The Book of Mormon
is the greatest primary witness on the face of the earth to validate
the authenticity of the Ancient Biblical Record, with Moroni as the greatest key
witness.
The Prophet Moroni testifies emphatically that the Theory of Evolution is so
completely
false, as noted in
Line upon Line: Moroni 10:3–5. Behold, I would exhort you, that when
ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them,
that ye would
remember how merciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the
creation
of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and ponder
it in your
hearts. . . . And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all
things. . . .
The key element of this witness testimony concerning the real mortal existence
of Adam,
and the factual evidence of the creation of the earth, and all the subsequent related things
thereto, is clearly stated within
The Book of Ether. Moroni specifically abridged the record
of the Jaredites. Therefore, from a professional genealogical research
specialist standpoint,
he is an intimate, personally involved, eye-witness to this account of those
twenty and four
plates which were found by the people of Limhi, which is called the Book of
Ether. Moroni
mentions: "And as I suppose that the first part of this record, which speaks
concerning the
creation of the world, and also of Adam, and an account from that time even to
the great
tower, and whatsoever things transpired among the children of men until that
time, is had
among the Jews-- Therefore I do not write those things which transpired from the
days of
Adam until that time; but they are had upon the plates; and whoso findeth them,
the same
will have power that he may get the full account" (as they are written in Adamic
language).
Additionally
Legal Records,
the Brass Plates,
held in the originating possession of
Laban,
contained not only the Jewish scriptures, but also Lehi's own genealogy back to
Joseph
in Egypt. From a dispassionate, professional genealogical research
specialist standpoint,
this directly relates to the genealogical Truths taught in 1 Nephi and 2
Nephi, Moroni had
access to the Brass Plates of Laban and knew that those records came
forth out of the City
of Jerusalem; and were handed down intact by the seed of originating
Nephite father Lehi.
Nevertheless, the very false theory, or secular doctrine of Evolution is
currently, and very
openly, and proudly; blatantly expounded upon, by open-minded
"scientific" leadership,
from the sacred halls of learning, at
Brigham Young University.
Yet, Nephi, son of Lehi,
had a vision of great significance, recorded in
1 Nephi 13:20–42: Plain and Precious Truths.
In particular, from a genealogical research standpoint,
1 Nephi 13: 23, the Gentiles, or us,
today, had a book, which an angel from the Throne of God in Heaven
declared, stating:
Behold it proceedeth out of the mouth of a Jew (collectively, the
ancestry of the Jews).
"The book that thou beholdest is a record of the Jews, which contains
the covenants
of the Lord, which he hath made unto the house of Israel (from Old
Testament times);
and it also containeth many of the prophecies of the holy prophets; and
it is a record
like unto the engravings which are upon the plates of brass, save there
are not so many;
nevertheless, they contain the covenants of the Lord, which he hath made
unto the house
of Israel; wherefore, they are of great worth unto the Gentiles."
Organic Evolution
is false.

in existence without accurate record keeping, to determine what has

mentions two great
concepts: (1) All kingdoms have a law given; and there are many
kingdoms; for there is no
space in the which there is no kingdom; & there is no kingdom in which
there is no space,
either a greater or lesser kingdom. And unto every kingdom is given a
law; and unto every
law there are certain bounds, also, and conditions. (2) . . . for
intelligence cleaveth unto
intelligence . . . judgment goeth before the face of him who sitteth
upon the throne,
and governeth and executeth all things; he comprehendeth all things, and
all things
are before him, and all things are round about him; and he is above all
things, and in
all things, and is through all things, and is round about all things:
and all things are
by him, and of him; even God, for ever, and ever. From a viewpoint of
heavenly
physics
and
astronomy: there is no vacuum in the Universe; forever having matter
and energy
existing in an intertwined state of being. Furthermore, the Universe is
forever in control,
magnifying the Glory of God, within all its elements; condensing
disparate intelligences.]
