“Adam fell that men might be. And men are that they might have joy.” Lehi’s declaration in 2 Nephi 2 is transformative in Latter-day Saint theology, transforming an event portrayed often in negative terms throughout Abrahamic faiths into something fulfilling and meaningful.
That isn’t the only way that Latter-day Saints understand the Fall differently than Jews, Christians, and Muslims. In today’s episode of Abide: A Maxwell Institute Podcast, we explore the scriptural narratives of Eden, post-Eden life, agency, and much much more.
The post Abide: Genesis 3–4 and Moses 4–5 appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.
