Description:

Full color images on every spread provide unprecedented access to Joseph Smith's revelation texts.

This volume features two manuscript books into which scores of Joseph Smith's revelations, dated from 1828 to 1834, were copied by early church scribes. The revelations copied into these two books became the primary basis for the canonized books of Joseph Smith's revelations: the Book of Commandments, published in 1833, and the first edition of the Doctrine and Covenants (1835). These revelation books rank among the most important documents in the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

In this oversize, full-color volume, the handwritten revelations are reproduced on the left-hand pages, with the corresponding transcriptions (including annotations) on the right-hand pages. This landmark work provides easy access to accurate and complete texts of these foundational documents.
