Hi 68.198.65.91, I had assumed that <i>they</i> referred to the "children of men" immediately preceding the phrase "that they also might enter into his rest." I think there are a lot of examples in the Book of Mormon where the article doesn't refer back to the subject as we might expect but instead back to the last person talked about. Maybe I'll try to dig some examples up. Still I could see that you might read it the other way too. But if you read this as referring to those ordained as high priests, I don't think the "also" makes as much sense. Feel free to further revise the question. --[[User:Matthewfaulconer|Matthew Faulconer]] 07:05, 21 Apr 2005 (CEST)
 
  
I guess my question is with the 'also'. Are those ordained as high priests already assumed to have entered into his rest? Then, when they teach the other children of men, they (the other children of men) can enter into his rest <i>also</i>? Perhaps the question is ultimately what it means to 'enter into his rest'? Is this synonymous with joining the church? If so, then it is a nice, poetic phrase, but it makes the whole question here a bit over-blown. (Ben)
