William Smith examines the text of Joseph Smith's complicated and rough revelation on plural marriage to explore the motivation for its existence, how it reflects the evolving and dynamic theology of the Nauvoo period, and how the revelation was utilized and reinterpreted as Mormonism fully embraced and later abandoned polygamy.
