Everything hard about this book, finally explained

You read the chapter, closed the book, and could not name one person in it. That was never your fault.

These words were written in Hebrew, and they reached you in English that is four hundred years old. They are holy, and they are hard, and no one ever taught you how to read them.

Every verse is printed exactly as it is. Nothing rewritten. But now you finally understand what you are reading.

check_circle The wall was never you. It was the language.

God still answers. You just have to understand Him.

You pray. You go to church. You read the words. You do everything you were taught. And still, some days, God feels like a stranger.

Samuel was a boy sleeping in the temple. God called his name three times, and three times he did not know who was speaking. He only knew when someone older sat with him and told him what he was hearing.

That same voice is on every page. It was only ever waiting for you to recognise it. And now you can. The pages stop being something you read. They start answering the questions you were afraid to say out loud. And the God who felt so far away is the one answering.

check_circle You never came to read a book. You came to hear Him.

You know the stories. You have never read the book.

You have known them since Primary. Noah's ark, David and the giant, Daniel in the lions' den.

But the thousand pages between them stayed closed. Not because you weren't faithful. Because nobody ever handed you a way in.

You have known the stories your whole life. This time you will know the book.

  • she asked and I actually knew

    My granddaughter asked me about Abraham and the knife. I have dodged that question for YEARS. Just said we'd talk about it when she's older. Turned the page and we read it together instead. She's nine. She got it. I did not expect to cry at my own kitchen table.

  • I made it past LEVITICUS

    Ten years I have started this book and quit in the same place every single time. Ten years. Made it through Leviticus in January and just kept going. I am in Kings now. KINGS.

  • I hated this book

    There I said it. Would never say that at church but the Old Testament was the one I dreaded every four years. All rules and wars. Read Isaiah last week and had to put it down for a minute. I was wrong about this book. Really wrong.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Yes. Every verse, printed exactly as it is. Nothing rewritten and nothing paraphrased. The explanations sit beside the verses in brackets, so you always know what is scripture and what is a note.

    A teacher who spent 35 years in the Church Educational System. He taught at the Orem Institute of Religion and wrote lesson material for Sunday School and seminary. He has served as a Gospel Doctrine teacher, bishop, stake president, and patriarch.

    You read the scripture as normal. When you reach a hard word, its meaning is printed right beside it, in the same line. Longer passages have a plain explanation underneath. The important phrases are already marked. You never stop to look anything up.

    Yes. This is often the easiest way to read it for the first time. You do not need any background or any classes. Everything you need is explained on the page as you go.

    Yes. That is the most common thing people say about this book. The notes tell you who each person is, which kingdom they belong to, and where you are in the timeline, right where the name appears. You stop rereading the same page.

    Yes. The difficult passages are exactly where the notes do the most work. They give you the context behind what happened and why it is written down, so you can answer honestly instead of turning the page.

    Almost certainly. Most people who have read it for years say the notes show them things they had been reading past the whole time. Understanding a verse is not the same as having read it.

    No. Each one works on its own and you can start anywhere. Volume One covers Genesis through Exodus, where most people begin and where most people stop. Most people who start with one come back for the rest.

    Yes. Four printed volumes, around 440 pages each. Nothing digital, nothing to download.

    Yes. The Book of Mormon Made Simple is available now as a three-volume set, built the same way, by the same teacher. Many people read them side by side. You can find it on our home page.
