Torah is Plain


(see Torah, Torah is All Things, Torah is Light, Torah in the Book of Mormon After Yeshua’s Death, Torah in the Doctrine and Covenants, Torah in the Millennium, Torah in Sermon on the Mount / Torah, Torah is Perfect, Torah is Precious)

Introduction

Plain is a Hebrew idiom that points to Torah, depending on context just as All Things is depending on context. The first time in scriptures I know of this being brought out is Genesis 25:27. This is not the easier place to catch this understanding because one needs to know that dwelling in a tent is an Hebrew idiom meaning learning Torah (see ALL Things You Should DO for details). SJR Deuteronomy 27:8 is the first obvious instance in the scriptures that plain is a Hebrew meaning Torah. The first place I saw this Hebrew idiom was in the Book of Mormon in Alma (LDS 5:43)(RLDS 3:71-72). The OR in A-BB is telling us that “ACCORDING to the COMMANDMENTS [TORAH] OF ELOHIM” is another way of saying PLAINLY. Connecting 2 Nephi (LDS 1:24)(RLDS 1:40-42) and 2 Nephi (LDS 25:4-5)(RLDS 11:5-8) together also shows us that PLAINNESS is connected to the law / Torah.

New Translation / JST / Inspired Version of the Bible

1 Nephi (LDS 13:20-42)(RLDS 3:156-200) brings out how plain and precious words were removed from the Bible before it went to the nations. Both plain and precious points to Torah. When you study all of the New Translation / JST / Inspired Version of the Bible you will see it is more pro Torah than the KJV is, that Joseph Smith corrected.

1828 Webster’s Dictionary

—–F-BB yea, tidings of great joy,

—-EAA 38 And it came to pass that
—-EAB I beheld the remnant of the seed of my brethren,
—-E-B and also the book [Bible]
—-E–C of the Lamb [Yeshua] of God [Elohim],
—-E-BA which had proceeded forth from the mouth of the Jew,
—-E-BB that it came forth from the Gentiles
—-EA unto the remnant of the seed of my brethren.
—DAA 39 And after it [Bible] had come forth
—DAB unto them
—D-BA I beheld other books [Book of Mormon],
—D-B-B which came forth
—D-B-B by the power of the Lamb [Yeshua],
—D-BA from the Gentiles unto them [Lehits],
—D-BA unto the convincing of the Gentiles
—D-B-B and the remnant of the seed of my brethren,
—D-B-B and also the Jews who were scattered
—D-BA upon all the face of the earth,
—DAA that the records [Bible] of the prophets
—DAB and of the twelve apostles of the Lamb [Yeshua] are true.
–CA 40 And the angel [YHWH] spake unto me, saying:
–C-BAA These last records [Book of Mormon],
–C-BAB which thou hast seen among the Gentiles,
–C-BBA shall establish the truth of the first [Bible],
–C-BBB which are of the twelve apostles of the Lamb [Yeshua],
–C–CA and shall make known

-B-BA which shall be established
-B-BB by the mouth [Torah] of the Lamb [Yeshua];
-B–CA and the words [Torah] of the Lamb [Yeshua]
-B–CB shall be made known in the records [Book of Mormon] of thy seed,
-B–CC as well as in the records [Bible] of the twelve apostles of the Lamb [Yeshua];
-B-BA wherefore they both [Bible & Book of Mormon]
-B-BB shall be established in one;

AAA 42 And the time cometh
AABA that He [Yeshua] shall manifest Himself [Yeshua]
AABB unto all nations,
AACA both unto the Jews
AACB and also unto the Gentiles;
A-BA and after He [Yeshua] has manifested Himself [Yeshua]
A-BB unto the Jews and also unto the Gentiles,

AAB and the first shall be last.

1 Nephi (LDS 14:23)(RLDS 3:243-245)
AA 23 Wherefore, the things which he [John] shall write
AB are just [Torah] and true [Torah];
-B and behold they are written in the book [Bible]
–C which thou beheld proceeding out of the mouth of the Jew;
–C and at the time they [Bible] proceeded out of the mouth of the Jew,
-B or, at the time the book [Bible] proceeded out of the mouth of the Jew,
AA the things which were written
ABA were plain [Torah]
AB-B and pure [Torah],
AB-B and most precious [Torah is Precious]
ABA and easy to the understanding of all men.

1 Nephi (LDS 19:1-4)(RLDS 5:218-226)
A 1 And it came to pass that the Lord [YHWH] commanded me [Nephi],
-BA wherefore I did make [large] plates of ore
-BB that I might engraven upon them
-BC the record of my people.
-BA And upon the plates which I made
-BB I did engraven
-BC the record of my father,
-BA and also our journeyings in the wilderness,
-BB and the prophecies of my father;
-BC and also many of mine own prophecies have I engraven upon them.
–CAAA 2 And I knew not at the time when I made them [large plates] that I should be commanded of the Lord [YHWH] to make THESE [small] plates;
–CAAB wherefore, the record of my father, and the genealogy of his fathers,
–CA-BA and the more part of all our proceedings in the wilderness
–CA-BB are engraven upon THOSE first [large] plates of which I have spoken;
–CAAA wherefore, the things which transpired before I made THESE [small] plates are, of a truth,
–CAAB more particularly made mention upon the first [large] plates.
–CBAA 3 And after I had made THESE [small] plates by way of commandment,
–CBAB I, Nephi, received a commandment that the MINISTRY [TEACHINGS] and the PROPHECIES,
–CB-B the more PLAIN [TORAH] and PRECIOUS [TORAH IS PRECIOUS] parts of them,
–CB–C should be written upon THESE [small] plates;
–CB-B and that the things which were written should be kept for the INSTRUCTION [LAW / TORAH] of my people,
–CBAA who should possess the land,
–CBAB and also for other wise purposes [losing of the 116 pages],
–CBAC which purposes are known unto the Lord [YHWH].
-BA 4 Wherefore, I, Nephi, did make a record upon the OTHER [large] plates,
-B-B which gives an account,
-B-B or which gives a greater account
-BA of the wars and contentions and destructions of my people.
A And this have I done, and commanded my people what they should do after I was gone;
A-B and that these plates should be handed down from one generation to another,
A-B or from one prophet to another,
A UNTIL further commandments of the Lord [YHWH]. [the commandment stated for a limited time and thus was not modified]

2 Nephi (LDS 1:24)(RLDS 1:40-42) [see 2 Nephi (LDS 25:4-5)(RLDS 11:5-8)]
A Rebel no more against your brother [Nephi],
-B whose views have been glorious,
–C and who hath kept the COMMANDMENTS [TORAH] from the time that we left JERUSALEM;
—D and who hath been an instrument in the hands of God [Elohim],
–C in bringing us forth into the land of promise;
-B for were it not for him, we must have perished with hunger in the wilderness;
AA nevertheless, ye sought to take away his life;
AB yea, and he hath suffered much sorrow because of you.

2 Nephi (LDS 1:25-27)(RLDS 1:43-51)
AA 25 And I [Lehi] exceedingly fear and tremble because of you [Laman and Lemuel],
A-B lest he shall suffer again;
A–C for behold, ye have accused him that he sought power and authority over you;
A–C but I know that he hath not sought for power nor authority over you,
A-B but he hath sought the glory of God [Elohim],
AA and your [Laman and Lemuel] own eternal welfare.
-BA 26 And ye have murmured because he hath been PLAIN [TORAH] unto you.
-B-B Ye say that he hath used sharpness;
-B–C ye say that he hath been angry with you;
-B-B but behold, his sharpness was the sharpness
-BA of the power of the WORD [LAW / TORAH] OF GOD [ELOHIM], which was in him;
-B-B and that which ye call anger was the truth,
-B–C according to that which is in God [Elohim],
-B-B which he could not restrain,
-BA manifesting BOLDLY concerning your INIQUITIES.
AA 27 And it must needs be that the power of God [Elohim] must be with him,
A-B even unto his commanding you that ye must obey.
A-B But behold, it was not he, but it was the Spirit [law / Torah] of the Lord [YHWH] which was in him,
AA which opened his mouth to utterance that he could not shut it.

2 Nephi (LDS 4:32)(RLDS 3:54-55)
A 32 May the gates of hell be shut continually before me,
-B because that my heart is broken and my spirit is contrite!
–C O Lord [YHWH],
–C wilt thou not shut the gates of thy righteousness [Torah] before me,
-B that I may walk in the path [Torah] of the low valley,
A that I may be strict in the plain [Torah] road [Torah]!

2 Nephi (LDS 9:47-49)(RLDS 6:94-98)
AA 47 But behold, my brethren, is it expedient that I should
AB awake you to an awful reality of these things?
-BA Would I harrow up your souls
-BB if your minds were pure?
–CA Would I be PLAIN [TORAH] unto you according to the PLAINNESS [law / Torah] of the truth
–CB if ye were freed from SIN?
—DA 48 Behold, if ye were holy
—DB I would speak unto you of holiness;
–CA but as ye are not HOLY, and ye look upon me as a TEACHER,
–CB it must needs be expedient that I teach you the consequences of SIN.
-BA 49 Behold, my soul
-BB abhorreth sin,
AA and my heart delighteth in righteousness;
AB and I will praise the holy name [authority] of my God [Elohim].

2 Nephi (LDS 25:4-5)(RLDS 11:5-8) [see 2 Nephi (LDS 1:24)(RLDS 1:40-42)]
AA Wherefore, hearken,
A-B O my people,
A-B which are of the house of Israel,
AA and give ear unto my words;
-BA for because the words of Isaiah are not PLAIN [TORAH] unto you,
-BB nevertheless they are PLAIN [TORAH] unto all those that
–CAA are filled with the spirit of prophecy [testimony of Yeshua].
–CA-B But I give unto you a prophecy,
–CAA according to the spirit [Torah] which is in me;
–CBA wherefore I shall PROPHESY according to the PLAINNESS [TORAH] which hath been with me
–CB-B from the time that I [Nephi] came out from JERUSALEM with my father;
–CBA for behold, my soul delighteth in PLAINNESS [TORAH] unto my people, that they may LEARN.
-B 5 Yea, and my soul delighteth in the words of Isaiah,
AA for I came out from Jerusalem,
A-B and mine eyes hath beheld the things of the Jews,
A–C and I know that the Jews do understand the things of the prophets,
A-B and there is none other people that understand the things which were spoken unto the Jews like unto them,
AA save it be that they are taught after the manner of the things of the Jews.

2 Nephi (LDS 25:28)(RLDS 11:52-54)
AAA 28 And now behold, my people,
AAB ye are a stiffnecked people;
ABA wherefore, I have spoken plainly [Torah] unto you,
ABB that ye cannot misunderstand.
-BA And the words which I have spoken
-BB shall stand as a testimony [Torah] against you;
–CA for they are sufficient
–C-B to teach any man the right way [Torah];
–CA for the right way [Torah]
-BA is to believe in Christ [Messiah]
-BB and deny Him [Messiah] not;
AA for by denying Him [Messiah]
ABA ye also deny the prophets
ABB and the law [Torah].

2 Nephi (LDS 26:33)(RLDS 11:111-115)
AA 33 For none of these iniquities come of the Lord [YHWH];
AB for He [YHWH] doeth that which is good [Torah]
AC among the children of men;
-BA and He [YHWH] doeth nothing
-BB save it be plain [Torah]
-BC unto the children of men;
–CA and He [YHWH] inviteth them all
–CB to come unto Him [YHWH]
–CC and partake of His goodness [Torah];
-BA and He [YHWH] denieth none
-BB that come unto Him [YHWH],
-BCA black and white,
-BCB bond and free,
-BCC male and female;
AA and He [YHWH] remembereth the heathen;
AB and all are alike unto God [Elohim],
AC both Jew and Gentile.

2 Nephi (LDS 31:1-3,20-21)(RLDS 13:1-5,29-32)
AAA 1 And now I, Nephi,
AAB make an end of my prophesying unto you,
AAC my beloved brethren.
A-BA And I cannot write but a few things,
A-BB which I know must surely come to pass;
A-BC neither can I write but a few of the words of my brother Jacob.
A-BA 2 Wherefore, the things which I have written sufficeth me,
A-BB save it be a few words
A-BC which I must speak concerning the doctrine of Christ [Messiah];
AAA wherefore, I shall speak unto you plainly [Torah],
AAB according to the plainness [Torah] of my prophesying.
-BA 3 For my [righteous] soul delighteth in plainness [Torah];
-B-B for after this manner doth the Lord [YHWH] God [Elohim]
-B–C work among the children of men.
-B—D For the Lord [YHWH] God [Elohim]
-B—D giveth light [Torah is Light]
-B–C unto the understanding;
-B-B for He [YHWH] speaketh unto men according to their language,
-BA unto their understanding.

-BA 20 Wherefore, ye must press forward
-B-B with a steadfastness in Christ [Messiah],
-B–CA having a perfect brightness of hope,
-B–C-B and a love [keeping Torah] of God [Elohim]
-B–CA and of all men.
-B—D Wherefore, if ye shall press forward,
-B–C feasting upon the word [Torah] of Christ [Messiah],
-B-B and endure to the end [keep faith = trust & diligence],
-BAA behold, thus saith the Father:
-BAB Ye shall have eternal life [sanctification].
AAA 21 And now, behold,
AAB my beloved brethren,
A-BA this is the way [Torah];
A-BB and there is none other way [Torah]
A-BC nor name [character] given under heaven
A–CA whereby man can be saved in the kingdom of God [Elohim].
A–CB And now, behold, this is the doctrine of Christ [Messiah],
A–CC and the only and true doctrine
A-BA of the Father [YHWH],
A-BB and of the Son [Yeshua],
A-BC and of the Holy Ghost [Torah],
AAA which is one [modalism] God [Elohim],
AAB without end. Amen.

2 Nephi (LDS 32:1-9)(RLDS 14:1-12)
AA 1 And now, behold, my beloved brethren, I suppose that ye ponder somewhat in your hearts
A-B concerning that which ye should DO after ye have entered [gate] in by the way [path / law / Torah].
AA But, behold, why do ye ponder these things in your hearts?
-BA 2 Do ye not REMEMBER that I said unto you that after ye had received the Holy Ghost [law / Torah]
-B-BA ye could speak with the tongue of angels [call repentance]?
-B-BB And now, how could ye speak with the tongue of angels [call repentance]
-B–C save it were by the Holy Ghost [law / Torah]?
-B-B 3 Angels speak by the power of the Holy Ghost [law / Torah];
-BA wherefore, they speak the words [instructions] of Christ [the Messiah].
–CA Wherefore, I said unto you, FEAST upon the WORDS [INSTRUCTIONS] OF CHRIST [THE MESSIAH];
–CB for behold, the WORD [INSTRUCTIONS] OF CHRIST will TELL YOU ALL THINGS WHAT YE SHOULD DO.
—DA 4 Wherefore, now after I have spoken these words,
—DB if ye cannot understand them it will be because ye ask not, neither do ye knock;
—-E wherefore, ye are not brought into the light [law / Torah],
—-E but must perish in the dark [because continuing to sin].
—D 5 For behold, again I say unto you that if ye will enter [gate] in by the way [path / law / Torah],
–C and receive the HOLY GHOST [law / Torah], IT will SHOW unto YOU ALL THINGS WHAT YE SHOULD DO.
-BA 6 Behold, this is the doctrine of Christ [the Messiah],
-BB and there will be no more doctrine given until after He shall manifest Himself unto you in the flesh [mortality].
-BC And when He shall manifest himself unto you in the flesh [mortality],
-BA the things which He shall say unto you shall ye observe to do.
-BBA 7 And now I, Nephi, CANNOT SAY MORE;
-BB-B the Spirit stoppeth mine utterance,
-BB-B and I am left to mourn BECAUSE
-BBAA of the unbelief,
-BBA-B and the wickedness,
-BBA-B and the ignorance,
-BBAA and the stiffneckedness of men;
-BCAA for they will not search KNOWLEDGE [SCRIPTURES],
-BCAB nor understand great KNOWLEDGE [LAW / TORAH],
-BCBA when it is given unto them in PLAINNESS [TORAH],
-BCBB even as PLAIN [TORAH] as [the] word [TORAH] can be.
AA 8 And now, my beloved brethren, I perceive that ye ponder still in your hearts;
AB and it grieveth me that I must speak concerning this thing.

2 Nephi (LDS 33:5)(RLDS 15:6)
A 5 And it [written word] speaketh harshly against sin [breaking Torah],
-B according to the plainness [Torah] of the truth [Torah];
–C wherefore, no man will be angry at the words [Torah]
-B which I have written
A save he shall be of the spirit [behavior] of the devil.

2 Nephi (LDS 33:6)(RLDS 15:7)
A 6 I glory in plainness [Torah];
-B I glory in truth [Torah];
–C I glory in my Jesus [Yeshua],
–C for He [Yeshua]
-B hath redeemed my soul
A from hell [reject Yeshua & Torah].

Jacob (LDS 2:11)(RLDS 2:12-13)
A 11 Wherefore, I must tell you the truth
-BA according to the plainness [Torah]
-BB of the word [Torah] of God [Elohim].
–C For behold, as I inquired of the Lord [YHWH],
-B thus came the word [Torah] unto me, saying:
AA Jacob, get thou up into the temple on the morrow,
A-B and declare the word [Torah]
AA which I [YHWH] shall give thee unto this people.

Jacob (LDS 4:13-14)(RLDS 3:18-25)
AA 13 Behold, my brethren, he that prophesieth,
AB let him prophesy to the understanding of men;
-BA for the Spirit [Torah] speaketh the truth [Torah] and lieth not.
-BB Wherefore, it [Torah] speaketh of things as they really are,
-BC and of things as they really will be;
–CA wherefore, these things are manifested unto us plainly [Torah],
–CB for the salvation of our souls.
—DA But behold, we are not witnesses alone in these things;
—DB for God [Elohim] also spake them [Torah] unto prophets of old.
—-EA 14 But behold, the Jews were a stiffnecked people;
—-EB and they despised the words [Torah] of plainness [Torah],
—DA and killed the prophets,
—DB and sought for things that they could not understand.
–CAA Wherefore, because of their blindness [sins],
–CAB which blindness [sins] came
–CBA by looking beyond the mark [Torah],
–CBB they [wicked] must needs fall;
-BA for God [Elohim] hath taken away His [YHWH] plainness [Torah]
-B-B from them [wicked],
-B–C and delivered unto them [wicked]
-B-B many things which they cannot understand,
-BA because they [wicked] desired it.
AA And because they desired it God [Elohim] hath done it,
AB that they [wicked] may stumble.

Jacob (LDS 7:17-18)(RLDS 5:30-32)
AA 17 And it came to pass that on the morrow
AB the multitude were gathered together;
-BAand he spake plainly [Torah] unto them
-BBand denied the things  [wickedness]
–C which he had taught them,
—DA and confessed the Christ [Messiah],
—DB and the power of the Holy Ghost [Torah],
–C and the ministering of angels [messengers].
-BA 18 And he spake plainly [Torah] unto them,
-BB that he had been deceived
AAA by the power of the devil.
AAB And he spake of hell,
ABA and of eternity,
ABB and of eternal punishment.

Enos (LDS 1:23)(RLDS 1:37-40)
A 23 And there was nothing
-BA save it was exceeding harshness,
-B-B preaching and prophesying of wars,
-B–C and contentions,
-B-B and destructions,
-BA and continually reminding them of death,
—CA and the duration of eternity,
—C-B and the judgments [Torah]
—C-B and the power [Torah] of God [Elohim],
—CA and all these things [Torah]—
—-DA stirring them up continually
—-DB to keep them in the fear [reverence] of the Lord [YHWH].
–CA I say there was nothing short of these things [Torah],
–CB and exceedingly great plainness [Torah] of speech,
-BA would keep them
-BB from going down speedily
-BC to destruction.
AA And after this manner
AB do I write concerning them.

Mosiah (LDS 2:40)(RLDS 1:86-87)
AA 40 O, all ye old men,
AB and also ye young men,
AC and you little children
-B who can understand my words,
–C for I have spoken plainly [Torah]
—D unto you that ye might understand,
–C I pray that ye should awake [awake & arise]
-B to a remembrance of the awful situation
A of those that have fallen into transgression [breaking Torah].

Alma (LDS 5:43-49)(RLDS 3:71-86)
AAA 43 And now, my brethren, I would that ye should hear me,
AAB for I speak in the energy of my soul;
A-BA for behold, I have spoken unto you PLAINLY [TORAH] that ye cannot err,
A-BB or [in other words] have spoken ACCORDING to the COMMANDMENTS [TORAH] OF GOD [ELOHIM].
AAA 44 For I am called to speak after this manner [teaching the commandments],
AAB according to the HOLY ORDER [TORAH] OF GOD [ELOHIM],
-BA which is in Christ [the Messiah] Jesus [Yeshua];
-B-B yea, I am commanded to stand and testify unto this people
-B-B the things which have been spoken by our fathers
-BA concerning the things which are to come [prophecy].
–CA 45 And this is not all. Do ye not suppose that I know of these things [to come] myself?
–C-B Behold, I testify unto you that I do know that
–C-B these things whereof I have spoken are true.
–CA And how do ye suppose that I know of their surety?
—D 46 Behold, I say unto you they [things to come] are made known unto me by the HOLY SPIRIT [LAW / TORAH] OF GOD [ELOHIM].
—-E Behold, I have fasted and prayed many days
—–F that I might know these things [to come] of myself.
—-E And now I do know of myself that they are true;
—DA for the Lord [YHWH] God [Elohim] hath made them [things to come] MANIFEST unto me by HIS HOLY SPIRIT [LAW / TORAH];
—DB and this is the spirit of REVELATION [PROPHECY] which is in me.
–CA 47 And moreover, I say unto you that it has thus been REVEALED unto me,
–C-B that the words which have been spoken by our fathers are true,
–C-B even so according to the spirit of PROPHECY [REVELATION] which is in me,
–CA WHICH IS also by the MANIFESTATION of the [HOLY] SPIRIT [LAW / TORAH] OF GOD [ELOHIM].
-BAA 48 I say unto you, that I know of myself [forgiven] that whatsoever I shall say unto you,
-BAB concerning that which is to come, is true;
-B-BA and I say unto you, that I know that Jesus [Yeshua] Christ [the Messiah] shall come,
-B-BB yea, the Son, the Only Begotten of the Father, full of grace, and mercy, and truth.
-BAA And behold, it is He that cometh to take away the sins of the world,
-BAB yea, the sins of every man who steadfastly believeth on His name [authority].
AA 49 And now I say unto you that this is the ORDER after which I am called,
A-B yea, to preach unto my beloved brethren [prophets are types of Yeshua],
A–C yea, and every one that dwelleth in the land;
A—D yea, to preach unto all,
A—D both old and young,
A–C both bond and free;
A-BA yea, I say unto you the aged [past],
A-BB and also the middle aged [present],
A-BC and the rising generation [future];
AA yea, to cry unto them that they must REPENT and be BORN AGAIN [NEW WAY OF LIFE].

Alma (LDS 12:12)(RLDS 9:21)
AA 12 And Amulek hath spoken plainly [Torah] concerning death,
AB and being raised from this mortality to a state of immortality,
BA and being brought before the bar of God [Elohim / Judge],
BB to be judged according to our works.

Alma (LDS 13:21-24)(RLDS 10:18-23)
AA 21 And now it came to pass
A-B that when Alma had said these words unto them,
A–C he stretched forth his hand unto them
A–C and cried with a mighty voice, saying:
A-B Now is the time to repent [return to Torah],
AA for the day of salvation [judgement] draweth nigh;
-BA 22 Yea, and the voice of the Lord [YHWH],
-B-B by the mouth of angels [messengers],
-B–C doth declare it [return to Torah] unto ALL NATIONS;
-B—D yea, doth declare it [return to Torah],
-B—-E that they may have glad tidings of great joy [sanctification];
-B—-E yea, and He [YHWH] doth sound these glad tidings [sanctification]
-B—D among ALL His [YHWH] PEOPLE, yea,
-B–C even to them that are SCATTERED ABROAD
-B-B upon the face of the EARTH;
-BA wherefore they [sanctification] have come unto us.
-BA 23 And they [sanctification] are made known
-B-B unto us in PLAIN [TORAH] terms,
-B–C that we may UNDERSTAND,
-B—D that we CANNOT ERR;
-B—-E and this because of our being wanderers
-B—D in a strange land [Genesis 49:22 over the wall];
-B–C therefore, we are thus highly favored,
-B-B for we have these glad tidings [sanctification]
-BA declared unto us in ALL PARTS of our vineyard.
AA 24 For behold, angels [messengers] are declaring it [return to Torah]
A-B unto many at this time in our land;
A–C and this is for the purpose of
A—D preparing the hearts [were Torah goes] of the children of men
A–C to receive His [YHWH] word [Torah]
A-B at the time of His [YHWH] coming
AA in His [YHWH] glory [Second Coming].

Alma (LDS 14:3)(RLDS 10:35)
A 3 And they [wicked] were also angry with Alma and Amulek;
-B and because they had testified
-B so plainly [Torah] against their wickedness,
A they sought to put them away privily [secretly].

Alma (LDS 24:30)(RLDS 14:58)
A 30 And thus we can plainly [Torah] discern,
-B that after a people have been once enlightened
–C by the Spirit [behavior / Torah] of God [Elohim / Judge],
—D and have had great knowledge
—-E of things pertaining to righteousness [Torah],
—D and then have fallen away into sin and transgression [breaking Torah],
–C they become more hardened,
-B and thus their state becomes worse
A than though they had never known these things [Torah].

Ether (LDS 12:39)(RLDS 5:40)
A 39 And then shall ye know
-B that I have seen Jesus [Yeshua],
–C and that He [Yeshua] hath talked with me face to face [desires to desires],
–C and that He [Yeshua] told me in plain [Torah] humility [righteousness],
-B even as a man telleth another in mine own language,
A concerning these things;

Moroni (LDS 7:15)(RLDS 7:13)
A For behold, my brethren, it is given unto you to judge,
-B that ye may know good from evil;
–C and the way to judge is as PLAIN [ACCORDING TO THE TORAH OF YHWH],
-B that ye may know with a perfect knowledge,
A as the daylight is from the dark night.

D&C (LDS 42:40)(RLDS 42)(1833 44+47)(1835 13)(1844 13)
A 40 And again, thou shalt not be proud in thy heart [were Torah is to be];
-B let all thy garments [covering] be plain [Torah],
-B and their beauty the beauty
A of the work of thine own hands;

D&C (LDS 84:23)(RLDS 83)(1835 4)(1844 4)
A 23 Now this Moses plainly [Torah] taught
-B to the children of Israel in the wilderness,
–C and sought diligently to sanctify
-B his people that they might
A behold the face [identity] of God [Elohim];

D&C (LDS 93:5)(RLDS 90)(1835 82)(1844 83)
A 5 I [Yeshua] was in the world
-B and received of My [Yeshua] Father [YHWH],
-B and the works [Torah] of Him [YHWH]
A were plainly [Torah] manifest.

D&C (LDS 93:31)(RLDS 90)(1835 82)(1844 83)
A 31 Behold, here is the agency of man,
-B and here is the condemnation of man;
–C because that which was from the beginning
-B is plainly [Torah] manifest unto them,
A and they receive not the light [Torah is Light].

D&C (LDS 133:57)(RLDS 108)(1835 100)(1844 108)
AA 57 And for this cause,
AB that men might be made partakers of the glories
AC which were to be revealed,
BA the Lord [YHWH] sent forth the fulness [sanctification] of His [YHWH} gospel,
BB His [YHWH] everlasting covenant [Torah],
BC reasoning in plainness [Torah] and simplicity-
