347: The Surprise of Section 132: Michael Mathews II
Manage episode 275337233 series 79857
In this conversation, blogger, Michael Mathews II exegetes Doctrine & Covenants Section 132. Mormons socially read Section 132 as pointing to the endurance of familial ties after death. However, Mathews argues, there is no evidence to suggest that this is the case at all. The temple, he further argues, is the place where covenants to live into the promise of plural marriage under the domain of the male priesthood is contracted. Mormons are making of Section 132 and the Temple covenants something that is literally irreconcilable with the text and the language of the covenants.
