1. Now I Jared, according to the command of God and in the will of Mohonri my brother, undertake to engrave hereon mine feelings and experiences as pertain to all the marvelous and wonderful blessings that were ours because of the mercy of God and grace of the anointed one who surely will come, and upon who we were founded in our hope.

2. For were it not for the mercy of the son of God, we would have all perished in unbelief, and been led captive unto the grave by the adversary of all that is holy.

3. But surely the Elohim have been mindful of us, and blessed us beyond our power to receive, even exceeding our greatest hopes and far beyond our worthiness or deserve­ability.

4. And so I rejoice daily, taking joy in the opportunities to worship my creator according to his revealed priesthood plan.

5. Being pleased also to live all the laws administered to us, for through them we shall have joy.

6. And oh how mine soul exalteth the Lord, and how blessed hath he been to administer such in our unworthy behalf.

7. And my wife Moriah doth rejoice with me in all things, and such joy and hope we have never before known nor had ever before anticipated.

8. And we discovered to our joy that our relationship one to another, because of the law of chastity and mystery of marriage, was deepened and quickened.

9. And our respect one for another, and our love one for another, found new dimension and new meaning as we began to look upon each other as a son and daughter of God, and as earthly allegories of the unions above.

10. And we beheld in the countenance of one another the eternal beauty of spirit unmarred by the cares of time, and we felt in one another the seeds of godliness.

11. And moreover, our relationship with the messiah grew more intense, as we saw in each other the reflection of his mystery.

12. As we are married to one another, so we are wed unto him who is our hope.

13. And to slumber with my beloved is to slumber with the Lord, and to awake to her love is to awake into heaven.

14. And thus we were blessed, and thus we were renewed, and all the world is as it was daily created anew, and we beheld our world through the innocent eyes of new born children, beholding it's beauty as if it were a garden of Eden.

15. And our hope was renewed in our offspring yet to come, for inasmuch as our lives are in greater harmony with the Lord's, and reflected more perfectly the unions above, we had a hope that our unions here below might be more perfect, bearing fruit more in accord with holiness.
