Revelation given to Joseph Smith the Prophet, in Jackson County, Missouri, 26 April 1832 (see History of the Church, 1:267–69). The occasion was a general council of the Church at which Joseph Smith the Prophet was sustained as the President of the High Priesthood, to which office he had previously been ordained at a conference of high priests, elders, and members, at Amherst, Ohio, 25 January 1832 (see the heading to section 75). Formerly unusual names were used in the publication of this revelation to conceal the identity of the persons named (see the heading to section 78).
