Available now is my computed comparison of the Book of Jacob to the Bible, consisting of 11 pages of side-by-side text comparisons. This is part of the second edition of As One that Hath a Familiar Spirit, which I’m publishing here on my blog. Subsequently, pending sufficient interest, I may also work toward publishing more formal print or ebook copies of the entire work. If you would be interested in purchasing a print or ebook copy, please let me know by clicking here.
Here are some highlights from and observations about the computed comparison of the Book of Jacob to the Bible:
- Jacob 1: 7 repeats language from Hebrews 3: 8, which repeats language from Psalm 95: 8
- Jacob 5: 42, 46 and 66 repeatedly associate the parable of the vineyard with Jesus’ words in the synoptic gospels
- Jacob 6: 6 repeats language from Hebrews 3: 7-8, which repeats language from Psalm 95: 7-8
- Jacob 6: 7 associates the interpretation of the parable of the vineyard with Jesus’ words in the synoptic gospels
- Jacob 6: 11 uses “enter in at the strait gate” like Jesus in the synoptic gospels
- Jacob 7: 14 expresses Jacob’s words like Luke 22: 42 expresses Jesus’ words
