New Book of Mormon posts

I have a couple more posts on my Book of Mormon blog which I haven't linked here yet, so here they are:

"The Nephites knew nothing of an 'Aaronic priesthood'" makes the case that the Aaronic/Levitical priesthood as described in the Torah as we have it today did not yet exist in Lehi's time (i.e. just before the Babylonian captivity) and is thus not a genuinely Mosaic institution.

"Running into the fountain of all righteousness" tries to make sense of Lehi's confusing metaphor of a river flowing into a fountain.

Sabbatical notice

I'm taking a break from blogging for a bit, exact timetable undetermined. In the meantime, feel free to contact me by email.
