Mormons combined millennially-interpreted biblical texts about procreation, husbandry, and community building with Joseph Smith's revelations on heavenly degrees of glory. Before Mormons speculated about the creation of new worlds and countless spiritual offspring, they wrote about the millennial paradise on the very earth on which they stood where they would raise children in a peaceful kingdom. Hodges explores the intersections between the nature of the millennium and the nature of eternal life in early Latter-day Saint thought, including the idea of continued procreation in the eternities. These intersections are traceable in revelations to Joseph Smith as well as the writings of other prominent Mormon leaders published in the Church's various periodicals.
