uring the past 50 years, a surge of new temples for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has placed the iconic architecture on skylines around the world. Even during a global pandemic, the building of more temples is moving forward. Each temple is another house of the Lord for

members of the faith. “They are places where individuals can go to make sacred promises with God, feel His Spirit, and escape from the hectic demands of day-to-day life,” it reads on the church’s website. THE SURGE BEGINS Since the presidency of Spencer W. Kimball — from Dec. 30, 1973, until Nov. 5, 1985 — 249 new temples have been built or announced. A Please see BUILDING, Page 6

staggering increase to the 21 temples built between the church’s inception. Many of these temples have been built in locations around the world where people longed to have one nearby. The announcements surely brought much excitement and happiness to the area church members. The Tokyo Temple was the first to be built in Asia and the 18th in the world. In 1975, President Kimball announced the temple at area conferences held in Asia. “And now we bring to you a matter of grave importance to all of the people of the Asian countries and the world. Yesterday, we held a meeting of the stake presidents and other leaders to consider this very serious matter. Brother Matthew Cowley, one of the Twelve Apostles, made a prediction that there would be temples in Asia and in Japan,” said President Kimball at the area conference in Japan. “And many of us have been almost holding our breath until the time could come when we could build a temple in this land. We, therefore, propose to you assembled here that we establish a temple in Tokyo, Japan, for all of Asia.” President Kimball’s time as prophet of the church was definitely a turning point for temple construction. In 1981, he announced even more temples around the world, specifically Stockholm, Sweden; Frankfurt, Germany; Johannesburg, South Africa; Seoul, South Korea; Manila, Philippines; Lima, Peru; and Guatemala City, Guatemala. Also announced were domestic temples in Dallas and Chicago. “We hope that temple building may be continuous,” he said at the time, “and that there will be no let-up in the building of temples so that Latter-day Saints in every nation can have the blessings of temples for their families.” Those nine temples brought the total to 37 temples worldwide. Since then, many more have been announced and built, almost universally to the delight of church members.

MORE MODERN TEMPLES President Kimball ended up announcing 31 new temples during his tenure, followed by Ezra Taft Benson announcing nine. In the decades since, Howard W. Hunter announced three, Gordon B. Hinckley announced 78, Thomas S. Monson announced 45 and, so far, Russell M. Nelson has announced 83 new temples. The building of so many modern temples has been a point of interest to many people across the globe. On June 13, 2004, President Hinckley dedicated the new Manhattan New York temple in four sessions that were broadcast to 16 meetinghouses in 10 languages. According to ChurchofJesusChrist.org, “The opening of the temple caused an international media stir, with a variety of media outlets in the United States and throughout the world, featuring not only the new temple, but also explaining some of the Church’s history, beliefs and reasons for the temple. More than 53,000 people of

various faiths attended the open house of the temple, located across from the Lincoln Center and one block west of Central Park.” In his dedicatory prayer, President Hinckley said, “May this temple be a place of quiet refuge in the midst of this great and noisy metropolis. May all who enter its portals feel they have stepped from the world into a place of Thy divine presence.” In fact, the most temple locations identified in a single year — 27 — were in 1998, under the direction of President Hinckley. Those locations spanned the globe from North Dakota and Spokane, Washington, to Australia, Ghana and Ukraine. RECENT YEARS On two separate occasions, President Nelson has announced the most new temple locations in one setting. The first came during the October 2018 general conference, when 12 new temples were announced, including Mendoza, Argentina; Yuba City, California; Phnom Penh, Cambodia; and Washington County, Utah. His announcement of 20 locations in April 2021 General Conference was a 67% increase over the previous singleday total. Some of these locations are Oslo, Norway; Helena, Montana; Eugene, Oregon; Singapore, Republic of Singapore; Cape Town, South Africa; and Burley, Idaho. Many people were surprised when, in April 2018, President Nelson announced that a temple would be built in Russia.

During the same talk, he announced another will be built in India, a nation that is 79.8% Hindu according to Pew Research. On Dec. 2, 2020, ground broke for the Bengaluru India Temple. More surprises came in April 2020, even while temples worldwide were closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At that time, President Nelson said, “Talk about the temple with your family and friends. Because Jesus Christ is at the center of everything we do in the temple, as you think more about the temple you will be thinking more about Him.” He then went on to announce plans to build eight new temples, including in mainland China and the Middle East. “In Shanghai, a modest multipurpose meeting place will provide a way for Chinese members to continue to participate in ordinances of the temple—in the People’s Republic of China—for them and their ancestors,” he said. The Dubai United Arab Emirates Temple, the first temple for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Middle East, will serve thousands of Latter-day Saints living in the Gulf States and a number of church members in the Middle East, northern Africa, eastern Europe and western Asia, according to a church media release. “Temples have been around for a long time,” reads the release. “Moses had a tabernacle, Solomon built a beautiful temple, and Jesus taught at the temple in Jerusalem. Today, temples are built all over the world.”

Twelve important temple moments in Russell M. Nelson’s presidency BY SARAH HARRIS Herald Correspondent

C

urrent renovations on the historic Salt Lake Temple include a reinforced foundation that will make the building strong enough to withstand earthquakes. Likewise, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints with “solid and immovable” spiritual foundations will stand strong amid spiritual earthquakes, the church’s President Russell M. Nelson said last general conference. “Please believe me when I say that when your spiritual foundation is built solidly upon Jesus Christ, you have no need to fear,” Nelson said. “As you are true to your covenants made in the temple, you will be strengthened by His power.” Temples are central to strengthening one’s spiritual foundation, according to Nelson. “The temple lies at the center of strengthening our faith and spiritual fortitude because the Savior and His doctrine are the very heart of the temple,” the church president said. “Everything taught in the temple, through instruction and through the Spirit, increases our understanding of Jesus Christ.” Nelson has made temples a focus of his time as president of the church. Here are 12 moments in the four years of his presidency that illustrate his emphasis on temples: WOMEN’S SESSION INVITATION Nelson invited the women of the church to “establish a pattern of regular temple attendance” during the women’s session of general conference on Oct. 6, 2018. “This may require a little more sacrifice in your life,” Nelson said. “More regular time in the temple will allow the Lord to teach you how to draw upon His priesthood power with which you have been endowed in His temple.” This was one of four invitations he extended to women as part of a plea “to shape the future by helping to gather scattered Israel.” The other three invitations were to participate in a 10-day fast from social media, read the Book of Mormon by the end of the year and participate fully in Relief Society.

PIONEER TEMPLE RENOVATIONS Nelson announced plans to “renovate and update the Salt Lake Temple and other pioneer-generation temples” as he closed general conference on Oct. 7, 2018.

“With the passage of time, temples are inevitably in need of refreshing and renewal,” Nelson said. Renovations are currently in progress on the St. George, Salt Lake and Manti temples. YOUTH TEMPLE RECOMMENDS The First Presidency announced Dec. 14, 2018, that young men and young women would become eligible for limited-use temple recommends in January of the year they turn 12 starting in 2019, allowing some 11-year-olds to attend the temple. The announcement was part of a letter to church leaders on changes to age-group progression for children and youth. “Obtaining a limited-use temple recommend for young

women and young men will continue to be individual matters, based on worthiness, readiness, and personal circumstances,” the First Presidency wrote in the letter. TEMPLE SESSION CHANGES Nelson implemented changes to temple instruction sessions in January 2019. “Details associated with temple work have been adjusted periodically, including language, methods of construction, communication, and record-keeping,” the First Presidency said in a statement on temples on Jan. 2, 2019. “Prophets have taught that there will be no end to such adjustments as directed by the Lord to His servants.” SEALING WAITING PERIOD The First Presidency announced May 6, 2019, that couples married civilly would no longer need to wait a

year to be sealed in the temple. “Where possible, leaders should encourage couples to be both married and sealed in the temple,” the First Presidency wrote in a letter to church leaders. “Where a licensed marriage is not permitted in the temple, or when a temple marriage would cause parents or immediate family members to feel excluded, a civil ceremony followed by a temple sealing is authorized.” ORDINANCE WITNESSES Nelson announced a policy change Oct. 2, 2019, allowing all endowed church members with current temple recommends to serve as witnesses for temple sealings, extending the opportunity to women. He also announced all members with current temple recommends, including limited-use recommends, could serve as witnesses for proxy baptisms, extending the

opportunity to women and youth. Any baptized member may now serve as a witness for a living person’s baptism outside the temple as well. “We are joyful about these changes,” Nelson said following the announcements in a general conference leadership meeting. “Imagine a beloved sister serving as a witness to the living baptism of her younger brother. Imagine a mature couple serving as witnesses in the temple baptistry as their grandson baptizes their granddaughter for and in behalf of a dear ancestor.” RECOMMEND INTERVIEW QUESTIONS Nelson read a list of updated temple recommend interview questions, with verbiage modified in 11 questions, during his closing general conference address on Oct. 6, 2019. “Individual worthiness to enter the Lord’s house requires much

Church leaders and members of the media gather for a press conference inside the Manti Tabernacle on May 1, 2021. At the press conference, President Russell M. Nelson announced in a prerecorded message that the church will build a new temple in Ephraim. The prophet also said the church has adjusted the renovation plans for the 133-year-old Manti Utah Temple.

individual spiritual preparation,” Nelson said. “I testify that such preparatory work brings innumerable blessings in this life and inconceivable blessings for the life to come.” CEREMONIAL CLOTHING ADJUSTMENTS The First Presidency announced adjustments to ceremonial temple clothing in a letter to church leaders on Jan. 17, 2020. “These clothing adjustments do not change temple doctrine or symbolism but are designed to enhance members’ experience in the temple and make the ceremonial clothing easier to put on, care

for, and afford,” the First Presidency wrote in the letter. PANDEMIC SHUTDOWN, REOPENING The First Presidency announced a temporary suspension of all temple activity, and later a cautious phased reopening of temples, in 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The presidency announced March 15 that temples worldwide will gradually resume more normal operations, including eliminating face masks and capacity restrictions. “Thank you for your patience during restricted temple operations that occurred because of the COVID-19 pandemic,” the First Presidency wrote in a letter to church leaders. “We are eager to return the temples to full operation as soon as possible.”

HOSANNA SHOUT Nelson led the church in the Hosanna Shout on April 5, 2020, in a worldwide solemn assembly during a special general conference commemorating the 200th anniversary of Joseph Smith’s First Vision. “We felt that it would be appropriate to rejoice together by participating in the Hosanna Shout,” Nelson said. “It is a sacred tribute to the Father and the Son, symbolizing the reaction of the multitude when the Savior made His triumphal entry into Jerusalem.” ONLINE PRAYER ROLL SYSTEM The First Presidency announced Aug. 25, 2020, a new online system allowing church members to submit names to be placed on temple prayer rolls.

“Members are invited to place the names of those in need on what is known as the ‘prayer roll’ of the temple,” said a church news release about the announcement. “Members then unite their faith in asking Heavenly Father to bless those persons whose names are on the prayer rolls.” NEW TEMPLE ANNOUNCEMENTS Nelson has announced 83 new temples during his presidency, as of last general conference. There are now 265 temples announced, under construction or operating throughout the world. “Please make time for the Lord in His holy house,” Nelson said before announcing 13 new temples at the end of last general conference. “Nothing will strengthen your spiritual foundation like temple service and temple worship.”

TEMPLE’S HISTORY According to church history, “Within days of the arrival of the first company of Latter-day Saint pioneers in July 1847, their leader, Brigham Young, waved his hand over a spot of hard, dry ground. He announced that at that precise location they would build a temple, their most

the pioneers who settled the Salt Lake Valley. Unlike Latter-day Saint meetinghouses, where anyone may attend Sunday services and other meetings, temples are open only to faithful Church members for the performance of their highest, most sacred rites,” according to church information. “Building the temple was a long and laborious process. With the painful experience of Nauvoo still fresh in their minds, Church leaders determined that the Salt Lake Temple would be almost fortress-like in its design and construction. They discovered a deposit of granite 20 miles southeast of Temple Square in Little Cottonwood Canyon— now the home of the Alta and Snowbird ski resorts,” church history states. Workers painstakingly chiseled out of the canyon walls huge granite blocks that weighed from 2,500 to 5,600 pounds each and carefully transported them to Temple Square, first by ox-drawn wagon and later by railroad. There, expert stone cutters carved the blocks to fit perfectly into place. Skilled workers used craftsmanship and artistry on temple interiors, where they applied their best expertise to draperies, furnishings, tapestries and floors in the building’s more than 170 rooms.

What is quite remarkable is it took 40 years to complete the temple. It was finally finished and dedicated in 1893. There were 31 dedicatory sessions held between April 6-24 that year. While Brigham Young watched its construction, he did not live to see its completion. “Most of the work was donated labor as pioneer men and women took time off from the backbreaking work of establishing their ‘Zion’ to contribute their time, skills and materials to the temple project,” according to the church. Brigham Young called upon many skilled artisans who had joined the church during its early days. These new members had brought their tools and techniques with them as they relocated to Utah from England, Wales, Scotland, Scandinavia and the eastern United States. Young’s own brother-in-law, Truman O. Angell, was the lead architect on the temple. Although church leaders and members wanted the temple to be the finest they could erect, it was a time of frugality for the Latter-day Saint community. At one point, two or more tiers of blocks had to be taken down and replaced because the workers were using chips of granite between the blocks in order to minimize the use of expensive mortar. “Build not for today nor tomorrow,” Brigham Young counseled the workers, “but for all eternity.” Through many trials and setbacks, that is what the saints did. While the temple has served well over a century, it would not last through the millennium or even a major earthquake in its current condition. TEMPLE RENOVATION During the April 2019 Annual General Conference of the church, President Russell M. Nelson announced plans for the renovation of the temple. On Dec. 31 of that year, the temple

was closed for a major fouryear renovation. The renovation would bring the foundation and building up to seismic codes as well as shoring up the foundation and walls, fixing loose blocks of granite and making it a building to potentially last through the millennium as Brigham Young hoped. It wasn’t just the temple itself but the majority of Temple Square, including the North Visitor’s Center and the plaza at the Church Office Building, that would be completely updated, renovated and restored. As the temple began to be worked on, it was remembered that a time capsule had been place in one of the granite balls on top of a spire. It was time for Nelson and his counselors in the First Presidency, Presidents Dallin H. Oaks and Henry B. Eyring, to take a peek and see just what was hidden in 1892. THE CAPSTONE Church historians recorded the auspicious occasion. “The laying of the Salt Lake Temple capstone was a seminal event in the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. One newspaper account describes ‘the crush, the enthusiasm, and the widespread interest’ occurring on Temple Square on April 6, 1892,” the church notes.

“A crowd of 30,000 people gathered around the temple, with another 10,000 looking on from nearby streets, building roofs and trees. They were there to see the finishing piece placed atop this sacred worship space that had been under construction for 39 years. Even the early spring weather was wonderful. ‘Nothing more peaceful and beautiful could have been desired or prayed for than the day which was to see the consummation of so momentous an event,’ the article says.” A journalist atop the temple to witness the laying of the capstone, including the deposit of a time capsule within it containing books, photos, letters, paper notes, medallions and coins (one of his own included), mused “on when, how, and under whose eyes it would be exhumed in some untold age in the future.” Fast forward 128 years to May 18, 2020, a day perhaps equal in balminess but not in fanfare. No large crowds were present. A few dozen construction workers removed that same 3,800-pound circular granite capstone, along with its time capsule contents and the angel Moroni statue that has stood on top of it. This was done for preservation and refurbishing during the temple’s seismic upgrade that began in January 2020, the church reported. “It makes me laugh a little bit

(to think about that journalist and the large cultural event surrounding the laying of the capstone),” said Emily Utt, historic sites curator with the Church History Department. “Our opening (of the capstone) has been a few people on a loading dock with very small chisels. I don’t know if (the people of 1892) could have imagined that kind of interaction. They had such fanfare. Our opening has been much quieter.” Two days after the capstone’s removal from the temple, the First Presidency joined a small group in the loading dock of the Church History Library to witness the initial opening of the time capsule. Since that time, conservation experts and stone masons

have carefully cut through the capstone’s thick granite and cement — as Utt said, with small chisels — to retrieve the remainder of the treasures that have sat in several cavities within for nearly 13 decades. “We did not expect to find much because we knew that the contents of the capstone had not been insulated from the weather during the 128 years that had elapsed,” said President Russell M. Nelson. “But we wanted to be there anyway, just to be close and to pay tribute to the leaders and courageous pioneer craftsman who against all odds built this magnificent temple.” Please see SALT LAKE, Page 18

Newspaper records from the 1800s detail most of the items placed inside. Materials were in the north, east, south, and west portions of the capstone. Some materials, such as a copper plate, coins and medallions, are in good condition. The gold-leafed copper plate, discovered in the north cavity, is inscribed with the names of the Church General Authorities present for the laying of the temple cornerstone on April 6, 1853, as well as the names of Church General Authorities present at the laying of the capstone on the same date in 1892. Some 400 coins have been found inside the concrete — mostly nickels and dimes, some pennies, a few quarters, and six-pence, three-pence, half-dime and three-cent pieces. Some coins remain unexcavated in the concrete. WHAT’S HAPPENING? As far as the renovation is concerned, contractors continue to work meticulously on the temple. In an April 2021 report on what is happening, the church reported that as part of the Salt Lake Temple renovation project, a tunnel is being constructed underneath North Temple to connect the Conference Center parking lot to the underground facilities and entrance to the temple. The copper roof sheathing of the temple has been completely removed and replaced with a temporary roof. This is in preparation for the installation of additional steel trusses, an important part of the seismic strengthening of the temple. The upper stones of the temple walls are being gradually removed to prepare for the structural concrete bonding beams that will brace the walls. The stones that are removed will be reinstalled in their original positions. As stones are removed from the temple for repair and cleaning, workers ensure they are properly cataloged and labeled so they can be returned to their exact original placement. On the Church Office Building plaza, multiple conveyor belts help carry materials and debris for hauling off-site. The two fountains are being removed, along with walkways and planter boxes. In a report on the temple’s progress, the First Presidency shared the following:

“As this project has progressed, we have felt the Lord’s hand guiding us in modifying several aspects of the renovation. The Salt Lake Temple is at the heart of Church headquarters. As the Prophet Isaiah foretold, many will come to this house of the Lord from all nations (see Isaiah 2:2–3). Many changes are being made to ensure a familiar, uplifting experience for members who attend that temple. In addition to the seismic protection, which is the principal reason for the temple renovation, many other improvements and changes to the temple and its surroundings are being made.” Those other changes/modifications include: Two more instruction rooms, additional sealing ordinance rooms and a second baptistry are being added to allow for greater capacity and more temple ordinances. When the temple reopens, the member experience will transition to singleroom presentations by film, available in more than 80 languages. Previously, this included a progressive room-to-room presentation by live actors that was presented only in English. The church has said it hopes this will help more members feel confident to serve as ordinance workers without the requirement for lengthy memorization. This decision will also make it possible to hold more sessions each day. The area that previously housed the temple cafeteria will now accommodate additional temple facilities to support the increased capacity of the temple. There will not be a cafeteria included when the temple reopens. “As we make these significant changes for the future, many historic elements are being impacted,” the First Presidency report said. “For example, the addition of new instruction rooms, a new method of presentation, seismic strengthening, and changes to meet accessibility requirements meant that the murals in the temple would need to be moved and/or repainted. It was impossible to know whether the murals could be preserved during such a move. They were originally painted directly on lath and plaster walls, which had been repaired and repainted many times because of water damage and other deterioration.” “Further, the change to a film presentation meant that the rooms would be reconfigured. For all these reasons, the murals were carefully photographed and documented before removal, and some of

better access and views to the temple and through Temple Square. The new landscape will provide a pleasant atmosphere for all who visit Temple Square.” The renovation of the temple will involve replacing the historic building’s aging mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems, as well as a significant seismic upgrade to help the building withstand a large-magnitude earthquake. “This upgrade will include a base isolation system, which is one of the most effective means of protecting a structure against earthquake forces,” said Brent Roberts, managing director of the church’s Special Projects Department. “This unique system will preserve the historic footing of the temple. Once complete, it will help protect people, the historic building, and the beautiful interior finishes in the event of an earthquake.” The installation of the base isolation system will require deep excavations around the historic footings and foundation of the temple and will also require the strengthening of the stone spires and walls. This project will also include the renovation of part of Temple Square. Portions of the wall around Temple Square will be opened and modified to allow more inviting views and better access to temple grounds. The existing South Visitors’ Center will be demolished and replaced with two new guest and visitor pavilions. The temple and surrounding square is expected to reopen in 2024 with a public open house.

the original portions are being preserved in the Church’s archives. Many other historic features of the building have also been photographed, documented, replicated and in some cases, architecturally salvaged,” the report said. “We look forward to the day when the renovation is complete and we can welcome friends from around the world to tour the temple prior to its dedication, and then for members to once again worship in this beautiful house of the Lord,” the First Presidency report added. “This project will enhance, refresh and beautify the temple and its surrounding grounds,” President Nelson said. “Obsolete systems within the building will be replaced. Safety and seismic concerns will be addressed. Accessibility will be enhanced so that members with limited mobility can be better accommodated.” The surrounding area on Temple Square and the plaza near the Church Office Building will also be affected as existing buildings are demolished and the area undergoes renovation and restoration. The existing annex and temple addition on the north side, which were built in the 1960s to add needed support facilities and more sealing (marriage) rooms, will be demolished and rebuilt. “The Salt Lake Temple is the center of Temple Square and the Church headquarters campus,” said Bishop Dean M. Davies, first counselor in the Church’s Presiding Bishopric. “New site improvements including multiple entry points will provide

COURTESY JOHN SCOTT AND INTELLECTUAL RESERVE

“Jesus Christ Visits the Americas” by John Scott.

The House of the Lord,

now and throughout history BY GENELLE PUGMIRE Daily Herald

COURTESY INTELLECTUAL RESERVE

President Russell M. Nelson of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

During his administration, President Russell M. Nelson of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has put an extra emphasis for members of the church to be worthy to enter the temple. The church teaches that throughout history, the Lord has commanded His people to build temples. As seen with Nelson’s administration, it is working to build temples all over the world — to make temple blessings more available for a greater number of Heavenly Father’s children. Temples are different than a regular meeting house that church members attend for Sunday meetings, and

where they hold activities throughout the week. A temple is considered “The House of the Lord,” and members believe they are sacred places of revelation, learning and making covenants with the Lord. Church historian Elder James E. Talmage, now deceased but once a member the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, wrote on the subject of temples. In his writings, particularly in his book, “The House of the Lord: A Study of Holy Sanctuaries, Ancient and Modern,” he explains the purpose of such buildings. “In both ancient and modern times the covenant people have regarded the building of temples as a labor specifically required at their hands. It is plain that a temple is more than chapel or

church, more than synagogue or cathedral; it is a structure erected as the house of the Lord, sacred to the closest communion between the Lord and the holy priesthood, and devoted to the highest and most sacred ordinances,” Talmage wrote. “Moreover, to be indeed a holy temple — accepted of God and by Him acknowledged as His house — the offering must have been called for, and both gift and giver must be worthy.” “The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints proclaims that it is the possessor of the holy priesthood again restored to earth and that it is invested with divine commission to erect and maintain temples dedicated to the name and service of the true and living God, and to administer within those sacred

structures the ordinances of the priesthood, the effect of which shall be binding both on earth and beyond the grave,” Talmage added. The church teaches the significance of what one learns in a temple, that temples are places of learning. “Their principal purpose is to provide ordinances necessary for the children of God to enable them to return to dwell with Him. Temple ordinances lead to the greatest blessings available through the Atonement of Jesus Christ. Everything in the Church — the meetings and activities, the missionary efforts, the lessons taught and the hymns — all lead to the work done in holy temples,” the church lessons teach. WHAT HAPPENS THERE “One ordinance received in the temple is called the endowment. The word endowment means ‘gift,’ and the temple endowment truly is a gift from God. The ordinance consists of a series of instructions and includes covenants to live righteously and follow the requirements of the gospel. The endowment focuses on the Savior, His role in Heavenly Father’s plan, and the personal commitment of each member to follow Him,” the church states. The church teaches that, “Another temple ordinance is celestial marriage. In this ordinance husband and wife are sealed to one another for eternity. A sealing performed in the temple continues forever if the husband and wife are faithful to the covenants they make.” Children born to parents who have been sealed in the temple are born in the covenant. These children automatically become part of an eternal family. Children who are not born in the covenant can also become part of an eternal family once their biological or adoptive parents have been sealed to one another. The ordinance of sealing children to parents is performed in the temple. In the temple, members have the opportunity to stand in as proxy for ancestors who have passed on — those who did not have a chance to know about the church and its teachings. Proxy baptisms and endowments are performed, as well as sealings for couples who have died. These are both done only in the temple. In the temple, there are special rooms and symbols that play an integral part in the making of covenants. Couples are sealed — or married — for time and all eternity in the sealing rooms. Like the endowment room where instruction is given, the two rooms have an altar. In the sealing room, couples will kneel across from each other and hold hands across the altar during the ceremony. In the endowment room a man and a woman are called to represent Adam and Eve at the altar. They are given instruction as those in the room listen and learn the instruction. They are joined by those so inclined, at a certain point in the ceremony, to circle the altar and offer a prayer. When you hear someone ask to be added to the temple prayer roll, it is that prayer around the altar to which the names are placed, according to church teachings. But these things are not new. They have been sacred since the beginning of biblical times. COURTESY INTELLECTUAL RESERVE

TEMPLE HISTORY Talmage writes that, “The essential idea of a temple is and ever has been that of a place specially set apart for service regarded as sacred; in a more restricted sense, a temple is a building constructed for and exclusively devoted to sacred rites and ceremonies.” The Latin “templum” was the equivalent of the Hebrew “beth Elohim” and signified the abode of Deity. It meant literally the house of the Lord. “Such structures have been raised in many different ages, both by worshippers of idols and by followers of God. While the outer courts of such temples were used as places of general assembly and public ceremony, there were always inner precincts into which only the consecrated priests might enter and wherein, it was claimed, the presence of the deity was manifest. Temples have never been regarded as places of ordinary public assembly but as sacred enclosures consecrated to the most solemn ceremonials of that particular system of worship.” The practice of worshipping at an altar and praising God started with Adam and Eve, when they were lead out of the Garden of Eden and the presence of God. It was then, and following the murder of Abel at the hands of his brother Cain, that members of the church believe the blood sacrifices offered at altars by the ancients and Israelites was a symbol of the sacrifice and atonement of Jesus Christ, considered the Savior of the world. Blood sacrifices were stopped after the crucifixion of Christ and are not a part of modern temple worship.

The LDS Bible Dictionary says the altar was, “Used for sacrifices and offerings and for sacred ordinances of the gospel. Altars are first mentioned in Gen. 8:20; animal sacrifice was offered on altars (Gen. 12:7– 8; 13:4, 18; 22:9; 26:25; 33:20; 35:7; Num. 23:1, 29; 1 Sam. 14:35; 1 Kgs. 18:30–32).” From Adam to Noah, and through the ages, temples and altars have been built as one of the highest and holiest places of worship. “The history of Israel as a nation dates from the Exodus. No sooner had they escaped from the environment of Egyptian idolatry than they were required to prepare a sanctuary, wherein Jehovah would manifest His presence and make known His will as their accepted Lord and King,” Talmage added. SOLOMON’S TEMPLE Perhaps the best known temple in Old Testament’s times was Solomon’s Temple, it has been an edifice held in high esteem in its creation, décor and dedication to God from the time of Solomon to today. “David, the second king of Israel, desired and planned to build a house unto the Lord, declaring that it was unfit that he, the king, should dwell in a palace of cedar, while the sanctuary of God was but a tent (see 2 Samuel 7:2). But the Lord spake by the mouth of Nathan the prophet, declining the proposed offering, because David, king of Israel, though in many respects a man after God’s own heart, had sinned; and his sin had not been forgiven (see 2 Samuel 7:1–13; 1 Chronicles 28:2–3). Nevertheless, David was permitted to gather material for the house of the Lord, which edifice not he but Solomon, his son, should build,” Talmage wrote. “Soon after Solomon’s accession to the throne he set about the labor. He laid the foundation in the fourth year of his reign, and the building was completed within seven years and a half. The erection of the Temple of Solomon was an epochmaking event, not alone in the history of Israel but in that of the world,” according to Talmage. Historian Flavius Josephus is among the most colorful figures regarding the history of the Jewish people. He is best known for his writings on the history of the Jewish people. In Josephus’ writings, “The Antiquities of the Jews,” which was translated by Wil-

liam Whiston, Josephus gives a lengthy description of Solomon’s Temple and the elements used in building it. Referring to Solomon, Josephus writes, “And as he enclosed the walls with boards of cedar, so he fixed on them plates of gold, which had sculptures upon them; so that the whole temple was made with great skill of polished stones, and those laid together so very harmoniously and smoothly, that there appeared to the spectators no sign of any hammer, or other instrument of architecture; but as if without any use of them, the entire materials had naturally united themselves together.” According to commonly accepted chronology, the temple was finished in, ap-

proximately, 1005 B.C. In architecture and construction, in design and costliness, it is known as one of the most remarkable buildings in history, Talmadge notes. The dedicatory services lasted seven days — a week of holy rejoicing in Israel. The Lord’s gracious acceptance was manifest in the cloud that filled the sacred chambers as the priests withdrew, “for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of God” Today, the site of Solomon’s Temple on Mount Moriah is considered one of the holiest places in the world, and is significant to Jews, Muslims and Christians across the globe. Even with all the celebration, Solomon’s Temple would be short lived.

March 26-27, 2022 | 23

“The glorious preeminence of this splendid structure was of brief duration. Thirty-four years after its dedication, and but five years subsequent to the death of Solomon, its decline began; and this decline was soon to develop into general spoliation and finally to become an actual desecration. Solomon had been led astray by the wiles of idolatrous women, and his wayward ways had fostered iniquity in Israel. The temple soon lost its sanctity, and Jehovah withdrew His protecting presence from the place no longer holy,” Talmage wrote. There were other temples following Solomon’s, but they were mostly inferior, including the Temple of Zerubbabel and the Temple of Herod built 16 years before the birth of Christ. “Many incidents in the earthly life of the Savior are associated with the Temple of Herod. It is evident from scripture that while opposed to the degraded and commercial uses to which the temple had been betrayed, Christ recognized and acknowledged the sanctity of the temple precincts. By whatsoever name it might have been known, it was to Him the house of the Lord,” Talmage said. The Temple of Herrod was completely destroyed by fire under the hands of the Romans circa 70 A.D. The Book of Mormon, a book of scripture from the new world accepted by members of the church as a second testament to the life of Christ, speaks little of temples. However, when Christ appeared to those living in the Americas, he appeared at the temple where they had gathered — evidence that temples were not uncommon to the people. “It is evident, therefore, that on both hemispheres temples ceased to exist in the early period of the Apostasy (the ushering in of the Dark Ages) and the very conception of a temple in the distinctive sense perished among mankind,” Talmage said. MODERN TIMES It was not until the establishment of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1830 that temples were part of the worship process. Members of the church believe that proper worship be held in temples once the Priesthood was restored to Earth. Please see TEMPLES, Page 24

“Through Joseph Smith, the gospel of old was restored to earth, and the ancient law was reestablished. In course of time, through the ministry of the Prophet, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was organized and established by manifestations of divine power,” Talmage adds.

Within three years after the establishment of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, a revelations was given to Joseph Smith concerning the building of a temple. “The Lord directed the immediate building of a holy house in which He promised to endow His chosen servants with power and authority. The people responded to the call with willingness and devotion. In spite of dire poverty

and in the face of unrelenting persecution, the work was carried to completion, and in March 1836 the first temple of modern times was dedicated at Kirtland, Ohio,” according to Talmage and church history. Within two years from the time of its dedication, the Kirtland Temple was abandoned by the people who built it; they were forced to flee due to persecution. With their departure, the sacred temple became an ordinary house. “The dedicatory services were marked by divine manifestations comparable to those attending the offering of the first temple of olden times, and on later occasions heavenly beings appeared within the sacred precincts with revelations of the divine will to man. In that place the Lord Jesus was again seen and heard,” Talmage wrote.

The saints were driven to Missouri for a time, and later to Nauvoo, Illinois, where they almost immediately began building a temple. It has been said that women would break their fine china and mix it with the mortar so the temple would glisten, according to church history. Though it was evident that the people would be forced to flee again — and knowing that the temple would have to be abandoned soon after completion — they labored with might and diligence to finish and furnish the structure. It was dedicated on April 30, 1846, but the exodus of the people had begun even before the completion of the building. The Nauvoo temple was abandoned by those who, in poverty and by sacrifice, had Please see TEMPLES, Page 26

reared it. In November 1848 it became a prey to incendiary flames, and in May 1850 a tornado demolished what remained of the blackened walls, Talmage noted. On July 24, 1847, the Mormon pioneers established a settlement on the ground that is now Salt Lake City. A few days later, Brigham Young, prophet and leader, indicated a site in the sagebrush wastes and, striking the arid ground with his staff, proclaimed, “Here will be the temple of our God.” That site is now the beautiful Temple Square, around which the city has grown. The Salt Lake Temple was 40 years in building and the capstone was laid on April 6, 1892. The completed temple was dedicated one year later. The church teaches that, “The Lord blesses those who attend to the sacred ordinance work in the temple. And the blessings He gives will not be limited to the time spent in the temple. Those who do temple work will be blessed in all aspects of their lives. Their labors in the

temple will strengthen them and refine them spiritually.” The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints proclaims that it is the possessor of the holy priesthood and that it is invested with divine commission to erect and maintain temples dedicated to the name and service of the true and living God — and to administer within those sacred structures the ordinances of the priesthood, the effect of which shall be binding both on earth and beyond the grave. It is no wonder that modern prophets, such as President Nelson and others, have made the work of building temples preeminent during their administrations. Every six months, during the annual and semi-annual General Conference of the Church, members wait to hear if, and where, new temples will be built. As a worldwide church, those locations are many. It is the hope of church leaders that one day temples will dot the earth and that members will be no more than two hours drive from a holy home to enjoy blessings and the covenants found within.
