Moroni's Extended Writing and the Role of the Church
Moroni's writings reflect his extended time to document the church after initially thinking he would end his record. His unique contribution centers around the organization and function of the church following the law of Moses. In chapters two through six, Moroni aims to fill gaps in the Book of Mormon regarding the practices of church services, particularly emphasizing the significance of the sacrament and authority. This inclusion illustrates the early Nephite understanding of church governance and sacraments which may not be widely recognized beyond the Latter-day Saint tradition.
