Paradigms Regained : A Survey of Margaret Barker's Scholarship and Its Significance for Mormon studies
-

"Margaret Barker's seven books of biblical scholarship should be of great interest to Mormon studies. Her own purpose has been to illuminate the origins of Christianity. In that ongoing effort, she has attracted increasing attention and respect for her contributions. Her central theme is the importance of the preexilic traditions of the first temple period for understanding Christianity. She finds evidence for the persistence of the old traditions in recently discovered texts, such as the Book of Enoch, that had been valued by the first generation of Christians but subsequently fell out of favor and were lost. From these kinds of texts and her close readings of the Bible, she begins her reconstruction of the conceptual background of Christianity as something 'other' than Jerusalem Judaism. My purpose is to survey the lost and rediscovered other that she has explored and to point out the relevance that her reconstruction has for Mormon scripture and scholarship. Her reference to Jerusalem and the 'sixth century B.C.' as the crucial time and place should attract the attention of Mormons. For us it brings the Book of Mormon into the arena. The thesis of this paper is that the overall picture that she presents-- her overall paradigm-- has a profound significance for Mormon studies." [Author]
