Reading again LXX Exodus 4 catching up to the #ComeFollowMe readings, and immediately remembered this upon recognizing the language here again. I just think it's neat.

"No-one had rights or a
Vote but the king
In fact you might say
He was fairly right-wing"

Important doctrinal distinction in #ComeFollowMe that should be obvious, but clearly for many is not. "In the Church today, you may hear about Israel in expressions like 'the gathering of Israel.' ... In these cases, we aren’t talking or singing about . . . the modern nation called Israel."
"So long as unrighteous acts are suffered in the Church, it cannot be sanctified, neither can Zion be redeemed." - Joseph Smith

I dig this video as a pretty decent visual illustration of the poetic nature and message of Genesis 1, the 'newer' of the two Genesis Creation Accounts. #ComeFollowMe

God's Stories As Told By God's Children
I'll be using 'God's Stories As Told By God's Children' (From The Bible For Normal People) as a compliment to #ComeFollowMe weekly Old Testament readings with my family this year. It's an EXCELLENT book for kids and adults alike - Bible scholars retelling the stories with good context & questions.

Noting again for this week's #ComeFollowMe that in the Doctrine and Covenants (section 128) we have a reference to the angel Raphael, the only appearance of that name in our canon, since the only other appearance of Raphael in the Bible is in Tobit in the Apocrypha.

Section 102! How timely for this week's #ComeFollowMe :)
One of my favorite tidbits is Joseph Smith dismissing the Song of Solomon as uninspired in 1831, only to present the Voice of the Lord as quoting it in 2 different modern revelation texts after that. #ComeFollowMe
Text of Doctrine and Covenants 98:8-10, "Nevertheless, when the wicked rule the people mourn. Wherefore, honest men and wise men should be sought for diligently, and good men and wise men ye should observe to uphold; otherwise whatsoever is less than these cometh of evil."

While thinking about D&C 88 for #ComeFollowMe Sunday School today, re-read the first chapter of the Gospel of John in the New Testament. There's some really fun intertextuality going on there. D&C 88 is in conversation with and expands on John 1, among other texts.
