“We Do Rejoice with Such Exceedingly Great Joy”

Brant Gardner

This simple description captures the process that has brought the people to this point. Their years of experience with Benjamin, their good king, have given them faith in him. That initial willingness to believe has made it possible for them to receive the greater revelation of the Spirit. Both through Benjamin’s words and through the outpouring of the Spirit, they have received “great knowledge” which fills them with spiritual joy.
