In this episode Stephen Smoot and Kerry teach about the ways in which Nephi intertwines his writings with Isaiah's. They provide some of the Isaiah context that allows us to get more out of what Nephi was saying. They explore the real meaning of being spoken to out of the dust and what that should mean to us in our day. They flesh out the ways the Bible and the Book of Mormon are designed to work together, according to Nephi's prophecies. They talk about the Gathering of Israel, and the role of the Book of Mormon in that, and the way Nephi uses biblical poetic patterns (like Isaiah) to teach about how universally available God's salvation is. They point out that the Book of Mormon, and especially this part of Nephi's writings, are aimed primarily at the descendants of the Lamanites, and how they and we are all gathered together as we use all of God's writings together.

Rabbi Joe Charnes and Kerry delve into some of the prophecies of Isaiah that are contained in the Book of Mormon. To begin with we discuss what it means to be a prophet in terms of Judaism and Latter-day Saints, and how that ties into our understanding of Isaiah's prophecies. We delve into the meaning of the words used for prophets, and how prophets convey God's word, whether the world likes the message or not. We also explore how seeing prophecies of justice coming upon people should be painful for us in some ways. We discuss Isaiah's teachings about ending oppression. We investigate how we can find hope in the times that God cuts us down. This discussion stems from the Messianic prophecy in Isaiah 11 (2 Nephi 21) and how the Assyrias of life can cut us down, but new life and Messianic hope can sprout from there.

They show how Jacob teaches about how to take advantage of Christ's atoning sacrifice and what makes it difficult for us to do so.

In this episode we talked about the journey of Lehi’s family, and lessons we can learn from that.

We illustrate some scripture study skills, and discuss Nephi’s powerful testimony and how he draws on the Exodus story to help us learn those lessons. We talk about how covenant is reflected in the story and what it teaches us about God’s love for us, and the special kind of love and relationship available within the covenant and how that relates to our lives now. We speak of likening the scriptures to ourselves and what that really means in Nephi’s context and how that all helps us understand the Isaiah passages in this part of the Book of Mormon, and what those passages teach us of Christ and Joseph Smith as well as ourselves.

In this shortcast, Kerry explores the interrelation between God’s love for us, our love for God, and the notion of being born again. He discusses the covenant connection with truly becoming God’s children, or children of Christ. He talks about how God’s love is manifest in covenant, in sending Christ to fulfill the covenant, and in changing us when we have made and kept covenant, and in the power of that change. That change really results in new beings, begotten by Christ. He touches on how this is tied up into thinking Celestial, becoming godly, and the glory that awaits us.

A message from Rabbi Charnes: Shalom, friends. In the podcast, I quoted a General Authority’s words speaking of the need for less judgment, and more love. Sadly, I was unable to remember his name. Here is the General Conference quote from Elder Alan T. Phillips that truly would, if followed, transform our world: “We can heed President Nelson’s counsel to judge, less, love more…” Thank you Elder Phillips. Thank you for both hearing and heeding the wise words of wisdom from President Nelson’s heart. I wish you grace and peace.
