Doctrinal Commentary on the Pearl Great Price

Hyrum Leslie Andrus, Salt Lake City, Utah: Deseret Book, 2002, Revised Edition, 6.5x9" hardbound, 600 pages. ISBN: 1573456330

The contributions of the Pearl of Great Price to our understanding of the gospel of Jesus Christ are vital but perhaps not well known. The shortest of the standard works, it covers a broad range of doctrine and includes insights that are both clear and profound.

Deseret Book is pleased to bring back into print the Doctrinal Commentary on the Pearl of Great Price (first published in 1967). Hyrum L. Andrus, who taught Pearl of Great Price classes at Brigham Young University, has undertaken a careful and thorough revision of this landmark work. Among the many doctrinal subjects treated in this volume are the nature of God, man's premortal existence, the creation of the earth, the fall of Adam, the atonement of Christ, and the establishment of Zion in Enoch's day and its relationship to the last days. This volume is a wonderful resource for all who seek a fuller understanding of the gospel through the ages.
