Cind f: The value of studying this block of text is, i think, twofold. First is simply a scriptural literacy issue. If you just do the math and count how many chapters of the tora is included in this block. And we have an additional reason why this material can be extremely valuable to know. As latter day saints for whom the temple is central to our religious experience, we have a kind of initiing relationship with the temple. I'm hearing students talk about phrase temple anxiety. Sometimes they have anxiety going to the temple ecause they know that it's special but don't know what to make of it or how to learn about it.

Where do ancient Near East and modern Western culture meet? Dr. Matthew Grey explores how knowledge and origins of the ancient Israelite temple worship help inform our modern temple language by helping us learn the language of temple worship.
