They provide some of the Isaiah context that allows us to get more out of what Nephi was saying. They explore the real meaning of being spoken to out of the dust and what that should mean to us in our day. They flesh out the ways the Bible and the Book of Mormon are designed to work together, according to Nephi's prophecies.

They point out that the Book of Mormon, and especially this part of Nephi's writings, are aimed primarily at the descendants of the Lamanites, and how they and we are all gathered together as we use all of God's writings together.

To join the exciting, once in a lifetime Missouri Workshop, email thescripturesarereal@gmail.com Rabbi Joe Charnes and Kerry delve into some of the prophecies of Isaiah that are contained in the Book of Mormon. To begin with we discuss what it means to be a prophet in terms of Judaism and Latter-day Saints, and how that ties into our understanding of Isaiah's prophecies. We delve into the meaning of the words used for prophets, and how prophets convey God's word, whether the world likes the message or not. We also explore how seeing prophecies of justice coming upon people should be painful for us in some ways. We discuss Isaiah's teachings about ending oppression. We investigate how we can find hope in the times that God cuts us down. This discussion stems from the Messianic prophecy in Isaiah 11 (2 Nephi 21) and how the Assyrias of life can cut us down, but new life and Messianic hope can sprout from there. We are grateful for our sponsor, Lisa Spice, and our producer, BJ Muhlestein, and for Rich Nicholls, who composed and plays the music for the podcast.
