Join us today as we pause from our Come Follow Me study and consider another principle we learnt from last week. We consider the wonderful teaching about the coming of Elijah and we reflect on how early in Joseph's teaching from Moroni this was delivered. 

Casey Paul Griffiths: Doctrine and Covenants 2 is an excerpt from the history started by Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon in 1838 and later canonized as Joseph Smith—History in the Pearl of Great Price. This section is one of a number of Old Testament prophecies highlighted by the Angel Moroni during his first visit to Joseph Smith in 1823. Moroni quoted, with some important variations in the text, the famous prophecy from Malachi about the return of Elijah. This section was first included in the 1876 edition Doctrine and Covenants when Apostle Orson Pratt, acting under the direction of President Brigham Young, added it to the scriptural canon. At the same time that section 2 was added, so were a number of important texts relating to temple work and priesthood keys, including Doctrine and Covenants 109 and 110, which record the actual appearance of Elijah in the Kirtland Temple (see commentary for Joseph Smith—History 1:27–65).
