Pike Guest Editors he Brigham Young University Jerusalem Center for Near Eastern TStudies was dedicated on May 16, 1989. Located on Mount Scopus, the Center offers an amazing view of Jerusalem and puts the Center’s students in the heart of Jerusalem within easy walking distance of the Mount of Olives and the Old City. During the past thirty years, the Jeru- salem Center has made a significant impact on Jerusalem as well as on all those who have studied and worked there. Known locally as “The Mormon University,” this beautiful building with its many arches pro- vides an inspiring venue for studying history, culture, and scripture; for community outreach; and for promoting the concept that Israelis and Palestinians can work harmoniously together. The thirtieth anniversary of the Center’s dedication provided a good vantage point from which to assess and commemorate this wonder- ful building and the study-abroad and other programs it houses. As the anniversary neared, several individuals approached the Jerusalem Center Provo Office suggesting something be done to celebrate it. We express gratitude to them for their interest in the Center and particu- larly note the encouragement received from Grant Underwood, Amber Taylor, and Jeffrey R. Chadwick. With support from BYU professor James R. Kearl, assistant to the university president with administrative responsibility for the Jerusalem Center, a committee was formed to make arrangements for a commem- orative conference. The committee consisted of Jeffrey R. Chadwick and Dana M. Pike, BYU professors of religious education who have taught at the Jerusalem Center, and Professor Kearl. BYU Studies Quarterly 59, no. 4 (2020) 5 6 v BYU Studies Quarterly This special issue of BYU Studies Quarterly contains the presenta- tions and other remarks delivered at the conference, held on the campus of Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah, on October 11, 2019. The conference was sponsored by the BYU Jerusalem Center Provo Office in conjunction with the BYU College of Religious Education, BYU’s Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship, BYU Studies, and the BYU History Department. The presentations published herein fol- low the order of their original presentation at the conference and have generally been edited somewhat for length. Due to the opposition directed against BYU and a Latter-day Saint presence in Jerusalem in the 1980s during the construction of the Cen- ter, a great deal of attention has already been given to the acquisition of a lease for the site where the Center was built, its construction, and the immediate aftermath. Although a few of the presentations at our conference touched on that period (for example, the remarks of Taylor, Galbraith, and Holland), we chose to give the majority of conference time to discussing what has happened with and at the Center since its dedication. Our conference included participation from former students who have studied at the Center and faculty who have taught there. After the conference concluded, each participant was invited to add comments to what they had said during the student and faculty panel discussions, respectively, and their remarks published here are an expansion of the discussions that occurred at the conference. Because this was a one-day conference, we were unable to give atten- tion to everything that could have been covered, including the impor- tant roles and contributions of the expatriate service couples and the local staff—security, maintenance, custodial, kitchen, music, and sec- retarial—all of whom work so well, often behind the scenes, to keep those in the Center safe, well fed, and living in an environment that fos- ters learning and interaction between students and faculty. Their efforts have made and continue to make a valuable contribution to the overall success of the Center and its programs. We thank them all. We invited Elder Jeffrey R. Holland to present the keynote address at our conference because he was the president of Brigham Young Uni- versity (1980–1989) when the Jerusalem Center was being constructed, and because during Elder Holland’s service as an Apostle of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, his assignments have included the Church’s interests in the Center. We are grateful he was willing and able to join us. Editors’ Introduction V 7 We express appreciation to all who presented at and who attended the conference. We also thank the Provo staff of the Jerusalem Center, especially Debra Petersen and JanaLee Longhurst, for so ably handling arrangements for the conference and for assisting with many details involved in preparing the presentations for publication. And we express gratitude to Blair G. Van Dyke for his assistance with the “BYU Jerusa- lem Center Timeline.” We thank Professor Steven Harper, editor in chief of BYU Stud- ies Quarterly, for publishing the conference proceedings. We likewise thank the BYU Studies staff for their assistance in bringing this issue to fruition. We invite you to read and experience, whether for the first time or by way of happy memory, the miracles of BYU’s Jerusalem Center. The entrance gates. Photograph by Mark Philbrick.

For reasons that are not entirely clear, Elder Page returns to Nau- voo and, as a consequence, Elder Hyde travels to Palestine alone. October 24, 1841 Elder Hyde ascends the Mount of Olives and offers a prayer dedicating the Holy Land for the gathering of the Jews. March 2, 1873 President George A. Smith and Elders Lorenzo Snow and Albert Carrington ascend the Mount of Olives and rededicate the Holy Land for the gathering of the Jews. 1886 President John Taylor directs that Jacob Spori, then serving in the Swiss German Mission, travel to Haifa to preach to the German-speaking Tem- plars who had established colonies in the Holy Land. On August 29, 1886, Spori baptizes Johan Georg Grau and, later, his wife Magdalena, who anchor the Church in Haifa for many years. May 8, 1898 Elder Anthon H. Lund rededicates the Holy Land. March 4, 1902 Elder Francis M. Lyman dedicates the land again on the Mount of Olives and at the Casa Nova Hostel in the Old City, and later (March 16) on Mount Carmel.

    Laurel Thatcher Ulrich. A House Full of Females: Plural Marriage and Women’s Rights in Early Mormonism, 1835–1870. New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2017. Reviewed by Lowell C. “Ben” Bennion aurel Thatcher Ulrich, a distinguished history professor emerita Lfrom Harvard University, has recently released a long-awaited and widely acclaimed work on women and plural marriage in early Mor- monism, titled A House Full of Females. She has previously published four books related to Colonial and Revolutionary America, one of which, A Midwife’s Tale, won both a Bancroft and a Pulitzer Prize the year after its publication in 1990. She describes A House Full of Females, which she began a decade ago, as “my first attempt to approach early Mormonism as a work of scholarship” (389). Given her relatively late entry into Mormon Studies, readers of BYU Studies Quarterly may not be familiar with Ulrich’s work, unless they have already read the three very favorable reviews of her new book published in BYU’s 2018 issue of Mormon Studies Review and her response to them.1 Mine is another favorable review, which aims to highlight aspects of the book that BYU Studies readers will find most interesting and adds to the growing praise Ulrich is receiving for this masterful work. Ulrich begins and ends her latest book with “An Indignation Meet- ing” held in the Old Tabernacle of Salt Lake City on January 13, 1870. Despite wintry weather, at least five thousand ladies gathered there to protest the Cullom Bill, which had been passed in the U.S.

  • Joseph Knight's Recollection of Early Mormon History
    Joseph Knight’s Recollection of Early Mormon History Dean Jessee n 22 August 1842, while reflecting upon the “faithful few” who had Ostood by him “in every hour of peril,” Joseph Smith recorded the following sentiments about Joseph Knight: [He] was among the number of the first to administer to my necessi- ties, while I was laboring in the commencement of the bringing forth of the work of the Lord, and of laying the foundation of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. For fifteen years he has been faith- ful and true, and even-handed and exemplary, and virtuous and kind, never deviating to the right hand or to the left. Behold he is a righteous man, may God Almighty lengthen out the old man’s days; and may his trembling, tortured, and broken body be renewed, and in the vigor of health turn upon him if it be Thy will, consistently, O God; and it shall be said of him, by the sons of Zion, while there is one of them remain- ing, that this was a faithful man in Israel; therefore his name shall never be forgotten.1 Joseph Knight, Sr., was born 3 November 1772 at Oakham, Worces- ter, Massachusetts. In 1809 he moved to Bainbridge, Chenango County, New York and two years later to Colesville, Broome County, New York where he remained for nineteen years. He owned a farm, a gristmill and carding machine, and according to his son, Newel, “was not rich, yet possessed enough of this world’s goods to secure to himself and family the necessaries and comforts of life.” His family consisted of three sons and four daughters.2 While Joseph Smith was living in Harmony, Pennsylvania he was occasionally employed by Joseph Knight.

    Event or Process? How “the Chamber of Old Father Whitmer” Helps Us Understand Priesthood Restoration Michael Hubbard MacKay ecent studies describing the restoration of the priesthood have Rnoted and demonstrated that we have been anachronistically shap- ing our 1829 restoration narrative around twentieth-century notions that the Melchizedek Priesthood represents a separate “authority” or “power” that is distinctly independent from the body of ordained men (it has become something we hold rather than something we join). Jona- than Stapley argues that by the early twentieth century General Authori- ties explicitly defined priesthood as “the exclusive authority and power of God,” whereas before then it was used more ecclesiastically.1 Though Joseph Smith was certainly a restorationist, like many antebellum Ameri- cans, scholars have tended to frame his restorationism in terms of how the power or authority of God was restored (emphasizing priesthood as something you hold). For example, we focus on how John the Baptist restored an independent entity called the Aaronic Priesthood and how Peter, James, and John restored the higher companion priesthood called 1. Stapley describes the priesthood within three categories developing across time. First is ecclesiastical, which describes priesthood as a body of leaders called the priest- hood who would “channel the power of God.” Second, he associates the temple theolo- gies developed in Nauvoo with the priesthood that “constituted the very structure of the cosmos.” Finally, at the turn of the twentieth century, “instead of viewing priesthood as channeling the power of God, church leaders began to describe the priesthood as the power of God.” Jonathan Stapley, The Power of Godliness: Mormon Liturgy and Cosmol- ogy (New York: Oxford University Press, 2018), 11, 12.

  • The Teachings of Church Leaders Regarding the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ: 1852–2018
    The Teachings of Church Leaders Regarding the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ: 1852–2018 John Hilton III, Emily K. Hyde, and McKenna Grace Trussel rom the beginnings of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day FSaints (herein referred to as “the Church”), the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ has been at the heart of its theology. In numerous revelations received by Joseph Smith, the Savior is identified as having been “cru- cified for the sins of the world” (D&C 53:2; see also 21:9, 35:2, 46:13, 54:1, 76:41). President Brigham Young taught that salvation was only “through the name and ministry of Jesus Christ, and the atonement he made on Mount Calvary.”1 President John Taylor said that Christ “was crucified and put to death to atone for the sins of the world.”2 President Wilford Woodruff stated, “The Lord Jesus was crucified on Mount Cal- vary for the sins of the world.”3 And President Lorenzo Snow taught that Christ “sacrificed his life on Mount Calvary for the salvation of the human family.”4 In 1918, President Joseph F. Smith wrote “that redemp- tion had been wrought through the sacrifice of the Son of God upon the cross” (D&C 138:35), and in 1941, President Heber J. Grant testified that Christ “came to this earth with a divine mission to die upon the cross as the Redeemer of mankind, atoning for the sins of the world.”5 In brief, 1.
