Author : Hugh Nibley
Renowned scholar Hugh Nibley presents a fascinating work written in two distinct yet related sections. In Temple Nibley discusses the meaning of the temple, the history and origin of ordinances and sacred vestments, and the temple's necessity in the Lord's work today.
In Cosmos Nibley explores man's place in the cosmos, or the expanse of Heavenly Father's kingdom, and how the temple fits into this divine realm of existence. he also writes about the importance and significance of language and writing in a chapter entitled "Genesis of the Written Word."
Hugh Nibley received his Ph.D. in history from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1939, and was emeritus professor of ancient scripture at Brigham Young University. A prolific writer, a keen and witty observer, and a relentless critic of the worldly, he has led members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints of all ages to a deeper understanding of and commitment to the gospel of Jesus Christ. Dr. Nibley passed away in February, 2005.
