  • Brigham Young University and Jerusalem Before Semester Abroad, 1931–1968
    Brigham Young University and Jerusalem before Semester Abroad, 1931–1968 Kahlile B. Mehr Kahlile B. Mehr ([email protected]) is a manager in the Records and Information Division of the Family and Church History Department in Salt Lake City. In addition, he serves on the executive committee of the Journal of Mormon History. The relationship between Brigham Young University and Jeru- salem is generally noted to have commenced with the first Semester Abroad program there in 1968. Yet precursors to that program go back to 1931 when BYU professors and staff studied Hebrew in Israel and came into contact with prominent Israelis. Though we recognize 1968 as the beginning of a formal relationship between the city and the university, understanding the informal relationships nurtured by a handful of forerunners helps us to appreciate the roots from which emerged both the Semester Abroad program and subsequently the BYU Jerusalem Center for Near Eastern Studies. Forerunners who blazed the trail for the establishment of the center and Semester Abroad included a BYU Travel Study program, which functioned as the institutional arm of BYU in Jerusalem; indi- vidual professors who studied Hebrew in language schools, became acquainted with the country, and imbibed its biblical heritage; and an Israeli dance group from the Pasadena California Stake. The experi- ences of individuals involved in these programs engendered a desire to broaden the involvement of BYU and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the religious heritage of Jerusalem. The purpose of this article is to trace a brief history of these individuals and groups in the Holy Land, noting the contribution each made.

  • Reaching Beyond the Classroom
    Reaching beyond4 the Classroom 1980–2000 he appointment of Robert J. Matthews as dean of Religious Instruction was announced in May 1981. Having served six Tyears as chairman of the Department of Ancient Scripture, he was well acquainted with Religious Instruction’s objectives and functions, and he was virtually the unanimous choice of the faculty. He was a popu- lar speaker and qualified writer, having served as editor for the Church Educational System. Because of his service on the committee producing new editions of the standard works, he was well acquainted with the General Authorities and their views. At a special faculty meeting, he set the tone for his leadership by counseling the faculty: “All should work 53 Teaching the Word with an eye single to the glory of God. If we do this, we will succeed. If we work with an eye single to our glory alone, we will not succeed.”1 Name Changed to Religious Education By 1983 the name “Religious Instruction” was changed to “Religious Education” because members of this unit do far more than classroom instruct- ing. Furthermore, the new name would Robert J. Matthews, dean of Religious Edu- parallel the two other campus wide pro- cation, 1981–90.

  • Mormonism's Negro Doctrine
    LOOKING BACK, LOOKING FORWARD: “MORMONISM’S NEGRO DOCTRINE” FORTY-FIVE YEARS LATER1 Lester E. Bush, Jr. It has been forty-five years since Dialogue published my essay entitled “Mormonism’s Negro Doctrine: An Historical Overview”2 and forty years since Official Declaration 2 ended the priesthood/temple ban. It seems like a good time to take stock of where we are: what has changed, what has stayed the same, what changes still need to happen, and what steps need to occur to bring about those changes. What’s New The first task—what has changed—is in some ways the easiest, and certainly the most uplifting. Almost everything has changed, and all for the good, beginning with the “priesthood revelation” of 1978. The obvious milestones, aside from the revelation itself, are: • the immediate ordination of Blacks to the priesthood, soon includ- ing the office of high priest, and the resumption of temple ordinances • just twelve years after the revelation, the first Black General Authority was called; recently, two more were called 1. A version of these remarks was originally given as the Sterling M. McMurrin Lecture on Religion and Culture at the University of Utah on October 8, 2015. 2. Lester E. Bush, Jr., “Mormonism’s Negro Doctrine: An Historical Overview,” Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought 8, no. 1 (Spring 1973): 11–68. 1 2 Dialogue, Fall 2018 • an inner city proselyting effort began • African American stake presidents were called in the Deep South • the growth of the Black membership from perhaps a few thousand to somewhere over half a million Africa deserves special mention.
