Doctrinal Commentary on the Book of Mormon, Vol. 1- First and Second Nephi

The last Book of Mormon commentary war written in the late 1950's Elders George Reynolds and Janne Sjodahl, so it was about time that another Book of Mormon commentary was written, especially since President Ezra Taft Benson placed such a pointed emphasis on this Book of Books.This commentary is also an improvement upon other books, since its focus is primarily upon doctrine, and not on archaeology or culture. I think someone once referred this at to "likening the scriptures unto ourselves."The books contain both the text of the Book of Mormon, followed by the specific commentary. It is, therefore, similar to Elder Bruce R. McConkie's "Doctrinal New Testament Commentary."This book has a good spirit about it, and I feel myself smarter and more spiritual as I have read it. I have read a lot of books, and each book has a degree of light, and this book is rather bright.It is great for Sunday School teachers and quorum instructors, or just for personal edification.
