This book examines the Book of Exodus in light of Temple Theology, as well as the Book of Mormon, the Pearl of Great Price, and Sections 84 and 124 of the Doctrine and Covenants. In light of Temple Theology, the Decalogue is properly seen as a covenant, rather than as a moral code alone. In that context, and along with the Book of Mormon and the Doctrine and Covenants, it is clear Exodus also involves the Endowment. From beginning to end it depicts Moses’ effort to bring the ordinances and covenants of the temple to the Israelites, and their rejection of those covenants and the Higher Priesthood. The loss of the priesthood was recognized in ancient times, and its restoration eagerly anticipated.
