EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a pivotal moment in the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints: the bestowal of the Aaronic Priesthood upon Joseph Smith, Jr. and Oliver Cowdery by the resurrected John the Baptist on May 15, 1829. The youthful countenances of Smith and Cowdery, both in their late twenties, contrast sharply with the otherworldly presence of John the Baptist, who appears as an ethereal, otherworldly figure. The scene is set in a dimly lit room, with a single candle casting long shadows on the rough-hewn walls. Smith and Cowdery are dressed in simple, workaday clothing, their hands uplifted in reverence as they receive the priesthood from John the Baptist. The prophet's hands are visible, glowing with a divine light, as he imparts the priesthood authority to the two young men. This moment marks the beginning of Smith's role as a prophet and the establishment of the LDS Church. The Aaronic Priesthood, which includes the Levitical priesthood and the Melchizedek Priesthood, is considered the foundation of the Church's priesthood structure. The bestowal of this priesthood authority upon Smith and Cowdery signified that they were authorized to perform sacred ordinances and act as God's representatives on earth. This photograph, taken from an original painting by H. A. Cannon, is a powerful reminder of the divine origins of the LDS Church and the priesthood authority that continues to guide its members today.
