About this product
Product Information
Many existing books and articles discuss specific temple ordinances, but the historical development of all temple ordinances has never been included in a single volume ?-?- until now. Author Jennifer Mackley elucidates the doctrine's 60-year progression from Old Testament practices of washings and anointings in the 1830s, to the endowment, sealings, and priesthood adoptions in the 1840s, through all of the vicarious ordinances for the dead in the 1870s, to the sealing of multigenerational families in the 1890s. Mackley's narrative is enhanced by 120 archival images (some previously unpublished), as well as extensive footnotes and citations allowing for further study. The history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' ("Mormon") temple doctrine begins in 1823, when Joseph Smith is taught of the ancient prophecy regarding the mission of Elijah. The first temple ordinances were introduced in 1836 and additional ordinances and ceremonies were revealed between 1840 and 1844. After Smith's death in June 1844, Brigham Young refined the rituals according to Smith's instructions, administered new ordinances, and suspended others as the Church and circumstances evolved. The account unfolds in Wilford Woodruff's own words, drawn from primary sources including his journals, discourses, and letters. It follows Woodruff's experiences and perspectives on decisions made by his predecessors Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and John Taylor. Woodruff was a witness to and catalyst in the implementation of temple ordinances and practices, continuing the pattern of seeking revelation in order to clarify rites and effect changes based on practical experience. The revelation Wilford Woodruff received in 1894 resolved unsettled issues and established modern temple worship. The book conveys the depth of his sacrifices for his beliefs, the importance he placed on the redemption of his extended family on both sides of the veil, and the impact this level of focus had on his daily pursuits. Viewing the development of temple doctrine from Wilford Woodruff's perspective will provide new insight even to those who are very familiar with Mormon history. What Mackley discovered through her research may surprise you.

A pleasant overall experience! They had a rather hard-to-find book on Persian calligraphy for a good price and free shipping. The status said shipped before any tracking was uploaded so I messaged them the next day to ask them to provide a tracking number. They never responded, but tracking was added to my eBay details that night. It took about five days to get here to Los Angeles from LaVergne, Tennessee and came in a strong, secure envelope. The book was in good condition and as described.
