Commentaries on Isaiah in the Book of Mormon

K. Douglas Bassett, American Fork, Utah: Covenant Communications, 2003, 8.5x11" hardbound, 368 pages. ISBN: 1591562929

And now, behold, I say unto you, that ye ought to search these things. Yea, a commandment I give unto you that ye search these things diligently; for great are the words of Isaiah (3 Nephi 23:1).

The Savior said to the Nephites, "Great are the words of Isaiah." But for many, the Isaiah sections of the Book of Mormon can seem daunting. Brother Douglas Bassett, however, has made these great words easier to understand by compiling thousands of statements made by prophets, General Authorities, and scriptural scholars to clearly explain the often-formidable words of one of the greatest prophets. Dr. Bassett relies on the words of the Brethren to illuminate doctrine and emphasize IsaiahÆs testimony of Jesus Christ. He uses the research of scholars to clarify the ancient prophetÆs symbolism and literary imagery in the context of culture, language, and history.

A valuable resource for gospel teachers, students, and family study, Commentaries on Isaiah in the Book of Mormon can help each of us more fully comprehend the teachings and prophecies of Isaiah.

K. Douglas Bassett is a graduate of Brigham Young University and received his doctoral degree from the University of New Mexico. He has taught seminary, religion classes at BYU, and is currently an instructor at the Orem Institute of Religion.
