| + | * The relationship of Malachi to the rest of the Old Testament in general is addressed at [[Old Testament: Organization]]. | ||
| − | + | * Malachi is one of the "Twelve Minor Prophets" '''(NEED TO ADD''' page for discussion of minor prophets as a group). | |
| − | * | + | * The book of [[Matthew]] is widely recognized as a chiasmus in which the Sermon on the Mount (Matt 5-7) is located in parallel with the Olivet Discourse (Matt 24-25). It appears that [[Third Nephi | Third Nephi 11-30]] is also organized as a chiasmus in which the Sermon on the Mount (3 Ne 12-14) is located in parallel with the last two chapters of Malachi (3 Ne 24-25). This raises questions about the relationship of Malachi 3-4 to the Sermon on the Mount. This also raises questions about what is similar between Malachi 3-4 and the Olivet Discourse so that they are both placed in parallel with the Sermon on the Mount, and what is different so that the Oliver Discourse is used in Matthew while the last two chapters of Malachi are instead used in Third Nephi. It is worth noting in this regard that all three of these passages are among the most widely repeated chapter-length passages in all of the scriptures, and are thus likely among the most important. |
