Notes

  1. These lectures were originally published in 1835 as part of the canonized Doctrine and Covenants. In its 1921 edition, the LDS Church dropped the lectures as only lessons, not canon. Research has indicated that authorship may be attributable to Sidney Rigdon with contribution from Smith. See:
    Noel B. Reynolds, “The Case for Sidney Rigdon as Author of the Lectures on Faith,” Journal of Mormon History 31/2 (Fall 2005), 1–41.
  2. Smith is listed as author, although authorship has been attributed to various other scribes and editors. See:
    Dean C. Jessee, “The Reliability of Joseph Smith's History,” Journal of Mormon History 3 (1976), 23–46.
