“Their Speech Shall Be Low out of the Dust”
Where else in all history, Elder McConkie asked, “are there two better examples of peoples who were brought down and utterly destroyed than the Jaredites and Nephites? And whose voices, being stilled in death, yet speak from their graves for all to hear? Does not their united voice have a familiar spirit? Is it not whispering out of the ground the same prophetic message that is now and always has been the burden of the fling prophets? Does not the Book of Mormon proclaim a familiar message, one already written in the Bible?’ (New Witness, pp. 432-33)”
