Publisher's Synopsis
"A collaborative work of scriptural theology, working at the border between written reflection and artistic exploration. Focused on just one chapter of the Book of Mormon, the well-known account of the dream of the tree in 1 Nephi 8, it provides fifteen theological reflections on Lehi's dream. Seven of these are close readings of the text written in a traditional style, while eight others come in the form of original pieces of art. Each contribution approaches the dream in its own way, casts it in a new light, and provides substantial grist for the reader to grind. Together, the contributions demonstrate, more than anything yet published on the Book of Mormon, the depth of a single text"--.
