It ends up being a very interesting way to learn about some things that otherwise wouldn't appear interesting. You hear everything in the contexts discussed through the eyes of an historian, a philosopher, a judge, and a very hypocritical stranger (maybe Satan?).... The book covers an analysis of Judaism and Christianity, and of the Laws, Government and Institutions of the Jews, and of the Jewish and Roman Trials of Jesus of Nazareth. A discussion showing the oneness of the teachings of the ancient prophets and those of the Founder of Christianity, and observing the doings of the Jews from Abraham to the resurrection, including the rise and spread of Hellenism in Judea, the wars of the Maccabees, and the laws, institutions, customs and philosophies of the people. Also, an analysis of the peoples rights, obligations, domestic relations, priesthood, government judicial system and the Hebrew and Roman trials of Jesus of Nazareth and his crucifixion and resurrection. About Oscar McConkie:Oscar Walter McConkie (May 9, 1887 – April 9, 1966)[1] was a Utah State Senator and leader in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). He was the father of Bruce R. McConkie, a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of the LDS Church. A second son, Oscar W. McConkie, Jr., was a member of the Utah State Senate. McConkie was born in Buena Vista, Utah, a small town close to Moab, Utah. At the time, his father was sought by government officials for recognizing his three wives as such so not long after his birth, Oscar moved to Mexico. His father died in Pacheco, Galeana, Chihuahua in December 1890. After his father's death, the family moved to Mona, Utah, where McConkie was raised. The McConkies moved to Moab when Oscar was ten years old. After graduating from Moab High School, McConkie attended the University of Utah. In 1913, he married Margaret Vivian Redd in the Salt Lake Temple. In 1914, McConkie began his studies at the University of Michigan, which led to his son, Bruce, being born in Ann Arbor. After two years at law school, McConkie was having eye troubles and so returned to Utah. He worked as editor of the San Juan Record, based from Monticello, Utah, where he also practiced law until 1922. In 1925, McConkie returned to Ann Arbor to finish his law studies at the University of Michigan after which he moved to Salt Lake City in the fall of 1926. McConkie served as a judge in San Juan County, Utah, from 1919 to 1922,[3] and Utah's Third District Court Judge, from 1928 to 1940. He also served as Salt Lake City commissioner. In 1940, McConkie unsuccessfully sought to be the Democratic candidate for Governor of Utah. Throughout his life, McConkie served in callings and leadership positions in the LDS Church. From 1920 to 1923, he was bishop of the Monticello Ward, before becoming a counselor in the presidency of the church's San Juan Stake to Wayne H. Redd, his wife's uncle, from 1923 to 1925. McConkie also served in the stake presidency of the Ensign Stake (in Salt Lake City) during the late 1930s and early 1940s. He later served as a member of the church's Sunday School General Board. From 1946 to 1950, McConkie was president of the California Mission, which then included most of California and a large part of Arizona. Copyright © 2018-2024 TDM Inc.
