Hey everyone, this is Taylor Halverson from Book of Mormon Central.

We've had a lot of requests to add our weekly Come Follow Me videos with myself and Tyler Griffin

to our podcast.

We are very excited to do this, however, just know that we use a lot of visuals in our videos.

So if you ever want to see the visuals, check out Book of Mormon Central on YouTube.

We hope you enjoy. I'm Taylor. And I'm Tyler. And I'm Tyler. I'm Garrett Dirkmont.

This is Book of Mormon Central's. Come follow me insights. Today, Doctorate and Covenants

sections 135 and 136. We bring Garrett Dirkmont on. He is an expert in this time period of church

history. And we are delighted to have

you with us today. Thanks for having me. So, Garrett, as we jump in today, the last section

that we covered was section 133 through 134, which both are completely out of their time,

the historical setting in the doctrine and

covenants. So we have to go back two episodes to when we covered Section 132, which was

ending in July of 1843. And now all of a sudden we pick it up in Section 135 and realize

there's been no canonized revelations in that almost

a year, that 11-month time period. And yet there are a lot of events taking place in this 11

months. So help us set the stage for Carthage Jail, June 27th, 1844.

That's a pretty tall order, because there are a lot of events that happened during that time

period. Probably the most important to note is that this is a time of increasing persecution of the Latter-day Saints in Navu, and it's a time

period in which the Saints are becoming increasingly frustrated that they are not able

to get people to help them in their difficulties that they have.

They're still trying to get their lands back in Missouri.
