00:26 – During the 2nd temple period the Jews are reproved in Malachi for a sluggish approach to following God’s law.
06:58 – The Lord addresses the lack of faith the people had. This was manifest in four specific ways: questioning God’s love, offering impure sacrifices, marrying outside of the covenant, and the lack of diligence in keeping the commandments.
09:25 – Malachi 1.3 says “I hated Esau.” Reading this troubling passage in its proper historical context will help make it more clear. Readers can also work to balance this scripture with gospel principles that clearly teach God loves all his children.
15:36 – Malachi prophesies of a pure offering. The Doctrine and Covenants unlocks the meaning of this passage as a book of remembrance containing records of temple ordinances for the living and the dead.
28:10 – Tree and temple imagery are found in Malachi’s words.
32:33 – Malachi 4.2 speaks of “The sun of righteousness arising with healing in her wings.” The Hebrew text of this verse helps us to see our Heavenly Mother.
38:44 – Elijah will prepare the way for the Second Coming, turning the hearts of the fathers to the children and the children to the fathers.

Marvelous work by Mike and Bryce bringing the old testament to life and Latter-day relevance.
Thanks Jeff!
I think you have the king of Salem and the king of Sodom mixed up. The king of Sodom was very wicked. The king of Salem was very righteous. His name was Melchizedek. Abraham paid tithes to the king of Salem, but refused to take anything from the king of Sodom.
I’m sure this little error was an accident on your part. I enjoy your podcast.
Thanks for catching this! It was a minor slip at 4:15 when Bryce says that the King of Salem offers Abraham a “deal,” and Abraham says, “I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich” (Genesis 14.23). He should have said “King of Sodom.” Thanks for the correction!
