Preparatory Redemption: Reading Alma 12-13, Paperback

Descriere

Alma 12-13 is a theologically rich and often misunderstood text. This brief discourse given by Alma to the people of Ammonihah explores the nature of redemption and the establishment of God's holy order of priesthood. With this collection of essays, eight scholars examine Alma's words from a broad range of disciplines and analytical approaches, from literary criticism to philosophy to comparative religious history. Their experiments with new angles of approach open this text up to theological insights that inform devotion and prompt deep inquiry.
