Lesson 42: “I Will Write It in Their Hearts”
Jeremiah lived at the crossroads of troubled times and troubled places. He stood as a witness and a representative of an old covenant dying away with the promise of a new covenant emerging.
Lesson 41: “I Have Made Thee This Day… an Iron Pillar”
The prophet Jeremiah provides us with a remarkable study in steadfastness in the Lord. From his premortal performance to his mortal ministry we are given an often painful portrait of what a prophet goes through to serve God in correcting his own people.
Lesson 40: “Enlarge the Place of Thy Tent”
Isaiah was a prophet for many ages. He was first and foremost, however, a prophet for his own times. The first 39 chapters of his writings were primarily directed to the House of Israel in his own day as well as the surrounding nations. There are, however, scattered throughout these chapters prophesies regarding the future. Nephi urged his readers to apply these teachings to any time period in which Isaiah’s writings are read.
Lesson 39: “How Beautiful Upon the Mountains”
The book of Isaiah has been called a “fifth gospel” because it testifies in detail of the Christ who should come with power to save. Isaiah prophesied with remarkable precision how and why the Savior would bring about the Atonement; thus, the purpose of this lesson is to help us understand the meaning of His Atonement in our lives.
Lesson 38: “Beside Me There Is No Savior”
The question posed by this lesson is how does the book of Isaiah help bring us to Christ?
Lesson 37: “Thou Has Done Wonderful Things”
Isaiah, as well as the rest of the Lord’s prophets, used symbolism to both reveal and conceal the truth about the Lord and his gospel. The animated yet sometimes ambiguous language can be confusing and frustrating to readers, but dedicated Latter-day disciples can lay hold upon these inspired and inspiring images of Isaiah in such a way as to increase faith in the Lord and faithfulness in themselves.
