Few doctrines of the LDS Church are better known yet less understood than the Word of Wisdom. Steven C. Harper, Ph.D., authoritatively defines it as far more than a simple health code, answering questions about the circumstances that led to its revelation and how it addressed issues in Joseph Smith's day and ours. Harper tackles Joseph Smith's own adherence and traces both the consistent and changing ways the revelation has been taught and applied throughout LDS history.
- Answers the surprisingly complex question: Did Joseph Smith always observe the Word of Wisdom?
- Traces how a revelation given 'not by commandment' became a requirement for temple worthiness
- Written by respected LDS historian Steven C. Harper, Ph.D.
- Reveals the Word of Wisdom as far more than a simple list of prohibitions
Perfect for a curious Latter-day Saint or gospel teacher who wants historical depth and context on where the Word of Wisdom came from and how it evolved.
