Okay, so I didn't *love* all of the chapters this week. I explain why, and point out some stuff I do love in the reading. Also we talk about sea monsters and why Jesus Christ is the perfect valentine.

Also I really wanted to put a sea monster on the episode cover art, but I felt like it didn't strike the right tone.

So here's the alternative cover art, where you can kind of see my twisted sense of humor, ha ha!



Yeah, I know...I'm a mess.

Anyways, here's some of the sources I talk about in this week's episode;

When Did Lehi Leave Jerusalem? From Book of Mormon Central:

Info about the Siege of Jerusalem in 586 BC:

About Rahab the Sea Monster:

About the word Reconciliation: "Reconciliation comes from Latin roots re, meaning “again”; con, meaning “with”; and sella, meaning “seat.” Reconciliation, therefore, literally means “to sit again with.” - Russell M. Nelson, The Atonement October 1996

This week we talk about the law of opposition, Adam and Eve in the Garden, Nephi's a poet, and the curse of the Lamanites. The Come Follow Me print manual is different from the online version of the manual for the section 2 Nephi 5:20-21 "What was the curse that came upon the Lamanites". I recommend that you read the online version as the most up to date commentary on this section.

Listen to Episode 5, Part B here. I loved Episode 5 SO MUCH, but I just couldn't go on without talking about John the Baptist, Jesus' Baptism, the Pharisees, and Vipers.  So here it is- a rushed rundown of Christ's baptism and an outtake from the original Episode 5 wherein I describe the various sects of Ancient Israel and fun with snakes. (Photo "Joy" from Reflections of Christ https://reflectionsofchrist.myshopify.com/ ) John the Baptist, Bible Dictionary: Son of Zacharias and Elisabeth, being of priestly descent through both parents. This lineage was essential, since John was the embodiment of the law of Moses, designed to prepare the way for the Messiah and make ready a people to receive Him. He was the outstanding bearer of the Aaronic Priesthood in all history and was entrusted with its most noble mission.
