New research by PhD student Colby Townsend reveals striking connections between The Book of Mormon and Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary, a widely used biblical resource in Joseph Smith's time. In this episode, we explore how Smith engaged with Clarke's insights, made textual modifications, and reframed biblical passages to fit his theological vision.

We meet John Gilbert, Grandin, Howe and Martin Harris pays funds the $3k for the greatest book in history

Martin Harris faced enormous financial and personal sacrifice to fund the printing of the Book of Mormon. John talks about some of the lessons we can learn from Martin, how our understanding of the Atonement can change as we read the Savior's first-person account of His sacrifice and suffering, and discusses how "endless punishment" and torment might mean something different than you may think!

This episode talks about repentance and how much joy our Savior feels when we repent.  I share the “Parable of the Dairy.” This episode also talks about the sacrifices Martin Harris made to pay for the publishing of the first 5,000 copies of the Book of Mormon.

This week we learn that Joseph Smith needed to publish the Book of Mormon, and in order to do that Martin Harris needed to mortgage his farm: From saints:Joseph knew the Lord wanted him to publish the Book of Mormon and spread its message far and wide. Publishing a book as long as the Book of Mormon would also not be cheap. They went first to Egbert Grandin, a printer in Palmyra who was the same age as Joseph. he wanted to be paid $3,000 to print and bind five thousand copies before he even started work. To put this into perspective, Joseph had paid $200 for his entire home and farm in Harmony, so $3,000 was an enormous amount of money.Martin had already promised to help pay for the printing, but to come up with that kind of money, he realized he might need to mortgage his farm.He had one of the best farms in the area. If he mortgaged his land, he risked losing it. Martin told Joseph his concerns and asked him to seek a revelation for him. In response, the Savior spoke of His sacrifice to do His Father's will, Thou shalt not covet thine own property,” the Lord said, “but impart it freely to the printing of the Book of Mormon.” The book contained the true word of God, the Lord assured Martin, and it would help others believe the gospel.Should Martin use his farm to help get the Book of Mormon printed? give a thumbs up if you think he should and a thumbs down if you think he shouldn't.Although his neighbors would not understand his decision, Martin obeyed the Lord and mortgaged his farm to guarantee payment.Children will learn:Jesus Christ obeyed Heavenly Father, even when it was hard.God's blessings are greater than the treasures of the earth.Jesus Christ suffered so that I can repent and come unto Him.

This is the story of Martin Harris, a man who was converted to God and had amazing spiritual experiences.  How could such a man walk away from the church he believed in? And what brought him back? This is his story, the way I, his granddaughter, believe he would tell it if he were here to tell it himself.Connect with Shiree: Just Love Them Facebook groupimlivinginjoy@gmail.com

Martin Harris gets a bad rap for his big mistake, but his faith and sacrifice were incredible. He even introduced Joseph to E.B. Grandin, making the Book of Mormon possible. D&C 19 shows the Lord's take on sacrifice—something Martin knew well.If you'd like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

This week we are studying Doctrine and Covenants section 19. This section is a direct revelation from Joseph Smith to Martin Harris. Although the counsel was specifically for Martin, there are many truths which can help us as well. We'll talk about some of the characteristics of the Savior which enabled Him to complete His Atonement, including having a good understanding of identity and purpose, in addition to being persistent. We'll also talk about how as we develop these character traits in our lives, we'll be better equipped to deal with our own trials. There are free worksheets available for the invitations made in the weekly podcasts.

In this episode Kerry and Andrew Skinner explore the historical background of the revelation, which gives surprising added meaning to this profound section. They help us see how Martin Harris and his questions about financing the publication of the Book of Mormon draw forth this revelation, and how it is about consecrating, and how Christ uses His own consecration to the Father to help Martin, and by extension all of us, to give ourselves fully to God. They delve into the profound teachings about Christ's sufferings that are a part of Christ's teachings, one of the few places we hear Christ Himself describe the depth of His suffering for us.

Our Mothers Knew It with Maria EckersleyA Creative Study of Come, Follow MeD&C [D&C 19]““Learn of Me”March 3 – March 9, 2025WEEK 10 SUMMARY=================In Doctrine and Covenants 19, the Lord speaks to Martin Harris through revelation, emphasizing the importance of repentance and obedience to God's will. The Lord explains that He is Alpha and Omega, and He warns of "endless" and "eternal punishment," clarifying that these terms signify God's punishment, not an infinite duration of suffering. The revelation urges repentance to avoid suffering and highlights the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who has suffered for all. Additionally, the Lord instructs Harris to be humble, avoid coveting, and contribute freely to the printing of the Book of Mormon, thereby sharing its truths with the world. The revelation ends by emphasizing prayer, the preaching of repentance, and living a life guided by the Spirit.SPARK 1: The Hollow Taste of Suffering================OBJECT LESSON: That They Might Not Suffer”: Unsinkable Silver EggSPARK 2: The Lord's Weight Loss Strategy ===================================OBJECT LESSON: “Covet Not Thine Own Property”: Water Bridge ExperimentEtsy Printable Link: [COMING SOON]SPARK 3: Roots & Branches=============================OBJECT LESSON: “They Cannot Bear Meat Now”: Core Beliefs Milk CartonsEtsy Printable Link: [COMING SOON]CHAPTERS=========00:00:14 INTRO00:04:37 QUICK GLANCE00:09:34 SPARK 1 INSIGHTS00:19:51 SPARK 1 OBJECT LESSON00:25:00 SPARK 1 QUESTIONS00:26:59 SPARK 2 INSIGHTS00:37:16 SPARK 2 OBJECT LESSON00:42:42 SPARK 2 QUESTIONS00:45:33 SPARK 3 INSIGHTS00:55:24 SPARK 3 OBJECT LESSON00:59:11 SPARK 3 QUESTIONS01:00:57 WRAP UPLINKS=====WEB: https://www.gather.meckmom.comETSY: https://www.etsy.com/shop/meckmomINSTAGRAM: Instagram @meckmomlifePODCAST: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST DISCLAIMER=================================This podcast represents my own thoughts and opinions.

Send us a textFrom Come Follow Me:        "It took Martin and Lucy Harris years to acquire one of the finest farms in Palmyra, New York. But in 1829 it became clear that the Book of Mormon could be published only if Martin mortgaged his farm to pay the printer. Martin had a testimony of the Book of Mormon, but Lucy did not. If Martin went forward with the mortgage and the Book of Mormon did not sell well, he would lose his farm, put his marriage at risk, and damage his reputation in the community. Although our circumstances are different from Martin's, at some time or another we all face difficult questions like those he faced: What is the gospel of Jesus Christ worth to me? What am I willing to sacrifice to help build God's kingdom? Martin Harris ultimately decided that he would mortgage his farm so the first 5,000 copies of the Book of Mormon could be printed. But even this sacrifice—and any sacrifice we might make—is small compared to the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, “the greatest of all” (Doctrine and Covenants 19:18), who bled from every pore to save the repentant."Support the Show!www.patreon.com/SaintsintheSouth(The thoughts, ideas, and beliefs we express on this channel do not officially represent The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  For additional information or official statements, please visit the website below.  The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/?lang=eng)#biblestudy #oldtestament #religion #churchofJesusChrist #ldspodcast #christianpodcast #missionary #lds #biblestories #christ #faith #faithinchrist #scriptures #bookofmormon #doctrineandcovenants #pearlofgreatprice #temples #houseofthelord #mormon #mormonbeliefs #christiansandmormons #god #endure #ironrod #faithineveryfootstep #generalconference #prophets #followtheprophet #commandments #love #service #charity #keepstriving #keeponstriving #gospelgrowthandgoodtimes #become #newtestamentSupport the show

Section 19 - Historical Background: After the completion of the translation of the gold plates, Joseph returned to Palmyra to hire a publisher to print the manuscript, but was rejected by publishers in both Palmyra and Rochester. However, in August, 1829, Martin Harris was able to convince Grandin to publish the book but only after Martin securred the printing with one of his farms. Joseph instructed Oliver Cowdery to make 2 copies of the manuscript, one to hold under security and the other to be presented to the publisher. Oliver gradually brought only 26 pages each day for the printer to typeset. Meanwhile, Joseph returned to Harmony to be with Emma. However, in the midst of the printing process in Palmyra, everything came to a sudden stop when Grandin became frightened. He discovered the people of Palmyra had made a pact among themselves to boycott purchasing the book altogether. Without sales, Grandin would not get paid. Under these dire circumstances, Hyrum pleaded with Joseph to return to Palmyra and seek direction from the Lord. This revelation is the result, directed most particularly to Martin Harris. Recap: Every person must repent or suffer, which suffering is endless. The Lord then explains the meaning of “endless suffering” and “eternal punishment.” He then describes how terrible the suffering will be unless they repent, in which case they need not suffer at all because Christ has already suffered for the repentant. The Lord then directs Martin Harris to teach repentance and not the deeper doctrines as of yet; do not covet, pray vocally and remain humble. He then directs Martin to pay the printer's debt of $3,000 so the Book of Mormon can be published, and finally to rejoice and sing Hosanna, for the Lord has come!

Martin y Lucy Harris tardaron años en adquirir una de las mejores granjas de Palmyra, Nueva York, pero en 1829 quedó claro que el Libro de Mormón solo se podría publicar si Martin hipotecaba su granja para pagar al impresor. Martin tenía un testimonio del Libro de Mormón, pero Lucy no. Si Martin proseguía con la hipoteca y el Libro de Mormón no se vendía bien, perdería su granja, pondría en riesgo su matrimonio y dañaría su reputación en la comunidad. Aunque nuestras circunstancias son diferentes a las de Martin, en algún momento u otro, todos hacemos frente a preguntas difíciles como las que él afrontó: ¿Cuánto vale el Evangelio de Jesucristo para mí? ¿Qué estoy dispuesto a sacrificar para ayudar a edificar el Reino de Dios? Martin Harris finalmente decidió hipotecar su granja para poder imprimir los primeros 5000 ejemplares del Libro de Mormón. Sin embargo, incluso ese sacrificio —y cualquier sacrificio que podamos hacer— es pequeño en comparación con el sacrificio de Jesucristo, “el mayor de todos” (Doctrina y Convenios 19:18), quien sangró por cada poro para salvar a los arrepentidos.Si deseas más información en cuanto a la publicación del Libro de Mormón, véase Santos, tomo I, págs. 76–84.Título: “Aprende de mí”Categoría: Doctrina y ConveniosPrograma: Estudio de las Escrituras con Pepe y ArielReferencias: Doctrina y Convenios 19Autor: Pepe Valle y Ariel Cuadra_____________________Únete al Grupo de Whatsapp: https://chat.whatsapp.com/JfCIDbnOXfnJzOlMChyShE

Section 12 - Historical Background: Joseph Knight, a successful farmer living in Fayette, New York, was a loyal friend and former employer of Joseph Smith. Knowing Joseph Smith was translating the gold plates while in Harmony, Pennsylvania, Knight brought down a wagon of supplies to help Joseph and Emma. While there, he asked for a personal revelation, probably through the Urim and Thummim. Recap: The Lord confirms His divinity. Those who labor in His vineyard will be blessed and find salvation. Joseph Knight is counselled to be humble, loving, faithful and charitable.  Section 13 – Historical Background: While translating the plates, Joseph and Oliver were impressed with the subject of baptism which was frequently discussed in the record. Wondering what to do about their own baptism, they asked upon the Lord. As a result, a Heavenly manifestation opened before them as John the Baptist appeared and conferred the Aaronic priesthood upon Joseph and Oliver. Having this new authority, Joseph and Oliver baptized one another. Recap: John the Baptist confers the Aaronic Priesthood upon Joseph and Oliver, giving them authority to baptize into Christ's church. Sections 14-16 – Historical Background: After receiving the Melchizedek Priesthood from Peter, James and John, believed to have occurred in early June, 1829, the persecution in Harmony became severe. Joseph was instructed by the Lord to flee with Emma to Fayette, New York where the Whitmer family offered to share their small and modest home with them. Three of the Whitmer sons, David, John and Peter Jr, asked for personal revelations from Joseph. Recap: The Lord declares the divinity of these blessings, coming from God and not from Joseph. Counsel given to labor in the vineyard, keep God's commandments and preach repentance. All were asked to endure to the end. Unfortunately, Peter was the only one who remained loyal to the Lord. Section 17 – Historical Background: During the translation of the plates, it was learned that the Lord would establish the truthfulness of the record by three witnesses (see 2 Nephi 27:12 and Ether 5:4). Oliver Cowdery, David Whitmer and Martin Harris all desired to be given the privilege of seeing the Gold Plates. Joseph inquired of the Lord concerning this, through the Urim and Thummim. Recap: Oliver Cowdery, David Whitmer and Martin Harris are promised that if they have adequate faith, they will be allowed to not only see the Gold Plates, but also the breastplate, the sword of Laban, the Urim and Thummim, and the Liahona. They are commanded to use this witness to testify to the world of the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon and its translation by the gift and power of God.

February 10-16As you read the Doctrine and Covenants, section 10 seems out of place chronologically. Since it talks about Martin Harris and the translation of the 116 pages, shouldn't it come after Section 3?  What happened? We'll tell you in this episode.

Discussing Dr. D. Todd Harrison's Teachings on the Doctrine and Covenants 3-5 Dr. Harrison's lesson focuses on Doctrine and Covenants sections 3-5, discussing revelations to Joseph Smith and Martin Harris. Section 3 highlights God's plan despite human errors, using Martin Harris's loss of the Book of Lehi manuscript as an example. Section 4 emphasizes serving God with dedication, and the qualities needed for missionary work. Section 5 recounts Martin Harris's desire for a witness of the Book of Mormon's authenticity, with God affirming Joseph Smith's prophetic role and foreseeing Harris's potential transgressions. The lesson underscores themes of repentance, obedience, and the divine origin of the Latter-day Saint faith. Dr. D. Todd Harrison is the most followed religious leader in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on the leading social media platform-Facebook. With more than 1.4 million followers, he is one of the top 10 most followed Christian leaders as well. As an Ambassador and Witness of Jesus Christ, it is estimated that he has now testified of Jesus to more than 100,000,000 people around the world. Thousands have become baptized members of the Church, and many have and are currently serving as full-time missionaries.

This episode is part 6 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.2 Nephi chapters 26-27 continue Nephi's prophecies. After the ascension, Jesus would show Himself to the Nephites. However, after four generations of a righteous remnant, the Nephites would forsake God. Gentiles will destroy them. The record of their history and prophecies will be sealed until the latter days.2 Nephi chapter 27 is like Isaiah chapter 29 but expanded for commentary about how God would give His book to an unlearned man and three witnesses will see it before it's released to the public. God will open some sealed content later in due time.We briefly look at these "three witnesses" to the Book of Mormon and how they all apostatized from the LDS Church over the same issue with Joseph Smith. They were Oliver Cowdery, David Whitmer, and Martin Harris.Further research:Book of Mormon in videoJoseph Smith: The Prophet of the RestorationThe Book of Mormon online: 2 Nephi [chapters 26, 27]*** Please contribute to the Hurricane relief fund for A.M.

In this episode of Religion Today, host Martin Tanner describes from the original, primary sources, how Joseph Smith likely translated the Book of Mormon.  Oliver Cowdery, Martin Harris, David Whitmer and others speculated that Joseph Smith saw words or letters in his seer stone or in the Nephite Interpreters.  This cannot be true, because Joseph Smith made revisions to the completed manuscript, which he would never have done if the words were God's alone.  Joseph Smith told Joseph Knight that he "could see anything" in the Nephite Interpreters.  This implies Joseph Smith could literally see the events in the Book of Mormon text, along with emotions, untranslated words, clothing, animals, buildings, way of life, and other details of Nephite life in the Nephite Interpreters.

An in-depth study of the visitation of D&C 3-5 - a revelation to Joseph Smith and Martin Harris about the loss of the 116 pages, a revelation to Joseph Smith Sr. about being called to the work, and a revelation to Martin Harris about gaining a testimony through faith rather than sight.

In the thrilling conclusion of D&C 3 Gerrit begins with a story of Joseph's stagecoach ride from Harmony to Palmyra. Gerrit paints the picture of the despair in the Smith home when Martin comes to tell share the news about the stolen 116 pages. No matter what you have done in your life reflect upon the state of Joseph Smith after the 116 pages we stolen and read D&C 3 verse 10: “But remember, God is merciful; therefore, repent of that which thou hast done which is contrary to the commandment which I gave you, and thou art still chosen, and art again called to the work” The Smith family waits six and a half hours for Martin Harris to show up for breakfast which leads to an obvious discussion about the commercialization of microwaves 147 years later.   Standard of Truth Tour dates for the summer of 2025: ⁠https://standardoftruth.com/tours/⁠ Missouri/Nauvoo – June 22nd through June 28th (10 spots available)   Sign up for our free monthly (that doesn't go out monthly) email: ⁠ ⁠https://standardoftruthpodcast.substack.com⁠   If you have any questions or possible topics of discussion for upcoming podcasts, please email us at: ⁠⁠questions@standardoftruthpodcast.com

As Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon in 1829, Martin Harris was entrusted with the 116 page manuscript, but lost the 116 pages. Scott and Casey discuss the context and controversies surrounding the losing of the Book of Mormon manuscript, a revelation to Joseph Smith Sr., and the first foreshadowing of the role of the Three Witnesses. Today's controversy surrounds prophetic infallibility and how God could have allowed Joseph Smith to lose the 116 pages of the Book of Mormon manuscript.

Our Mothers Knew It with Maria EckersleyA Creative Study of Come, Follow MeD&C [D&C 2; JSH 1:27-65]“The Hearts of the Children Shall Turn to Their Fathers”January 20 – January 26, 2025WEEK 04 SUMMARY=================Lesson Summary:Doctrine and Covenants 2 reveals the prophecy that Elijah will return before the great day of the Lord to restore priesthood authority, turning the hearts of the fathers to the children and vice versa. In "Joseph Smith—History" 1:27–65, Joseph Smith details his experiences from receiving the First Vision, his persecutions, youthful mistakes, and the visitations of the angel Moroni, who instructs him about the Book of Mormon plates. Moroni repeatedly visits Joseph, explaining the importance of the plates and the role Joseph is to play. Joseph faces persecution and challenges as he prepares to fulfill his divine calling and eventually gains possession of the plates, beginning the translation process with the help of others like Martin Harris, who confirms the authenticity of the characters with scholars. The narrative highlights Joseph's faith, trials, and the miraculous support he receives in his prophetic mission. SPARK 1:THE HEART OF HAGRID================OBJECT LESSON: “He Replied to Me That It Was of God”: Sustain Chain RelayEtsy Printable Link: [LINK SOON]QUESTIONS: - When have you felt truly sustained by someone else? - At first, Joseph fears Moroni, but it fades quickly. What happened to facilitate that change? How does it compare to other experiences with holy messengers, such as Mary with Gabriel or the Shepherds with the Angels in the field? - Joseph said Moroni was a resurrected being. What data points can you gather about resurrected bodies from his experience with Moroni?SPARK 2: TEMPLE PREP PLATES===================================OBJECT LESSON: “By the Wisdom of God They Remained Safe”: Strategem & Seek Golden Plates GameEtsy Printable Link: [LINK SOON]QUESTIONS: - What experiences in your early life prepared you for the temple? - Are there things you have learned in the temple that you could not have learned from a book, class, or other source? - In April 2020, Elder Soares taught that Joseph's marriage to Emma was part of his spiritual preparation to receive the plates. Do you think it was significant that she was with him when he finally received the plates? - If God had promised to protect the plates, why was it necessary for Joseph to use so many different hiding techniques? Do you think that experience was a teaching tool of some kind? What might he have gained from it? What might Emma have gained?SPARK 3: PLANTED PROMISES=============================OBJECT LESSON: “The Hearts of the Children Shall Turn”: Spirit of Elijah SpinnersEtsy Printable Link: [LINK HERE]QUESTIONS: - When have you felt your heart turn towards your “fathers” or “children” significantly? Have you ever felt it turn towards relatives you have not known or children/grandchildren who have not been born yet? - Why do you think Elijah is chosen to be the messenger of the keys? What is significant about his life or teachings that makes him particularly effective in this role? - In 2021, Elder Bednar connected these teachings about Elijah to Savior's invitation to “Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”9 How are sealing keys and temple covenants being connected to that invitation?CHAPTERS=========00:00:14 INTRO00:03:25 QUICK GLANCE00:06:55 SPARK 1 INSIGHTS00:14:39 SPARK 1 OBJECT...
