Synopsis

  • “This book needs to be on the shelf of every serious Book of Mormon student.” — Nicholas J. Frederick, Assistant Professor of Ancient Scripture, Brigham Young University, author of The Bible, Mormon Scripture, and the “Rhetoric of Allusivity”
  • “Spencer is one of the most careful readers of scripture in Mormon Studies and this book puts his skill on full display.” — Walker Wright, Worlds Without End
  • “This book is remarkable. We’ve never seen anything quite like it in the history of Mormonism.” — Steve Evans, By Common Consent

In The Vision of All, Joseph Spencer draws on the best of biblical and Latter-day Saint scholarship to make sense of the so-called “Isaiah chapters” in the first two books of the Book of Mormon. Arguing that Isaiah lies at the very heart of Nephi’s project, Spencer insists on demystifying the writings of Isaiah while nonetheless refusing to pretend that Isaiah is in any way easy to grasp. Presented as a series of down-to-earth lectures, The Vision of All outlines a comprehensive answer to the question of why Nephi was interested in Isaiah in the first place. Along the way, the book presents both a general approach to reading Isaiah in the Book of Mormon and a set of specific tactics for making sense of Isaiah's writings. For anyone interested in understanding what Isaiah is doing in the Book of Mormon, this is the place to start.
