The Pearl of Great Price is one of the standard works of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It collects the Book of Moses, an expanded account of early Genesis, the Book of Abraham, a text Joseph Smith said he translated from Egyptian papyri, a revised section of Matthew 24, an account of Smith's early visions, and the thirteen Articles of Faith.
It is for members who use it as scripture and for students of American religion who want to read the primary text directly. You get the source for several distinctive Latter-day Saint teachings, including the First Vision and the doctrine of premortal life.
Growth-minded and clear-cut; a moderate read.
Best for readers like The Growth Strategist. Which reader are you?
