GUIDE TO THE SCRIPTURES
LANGUAGE

Words, written or spoken, put together in specific patterns in order to communicate information, thoughts, and ideas. How we use language shows how we feel toward God and other people. At the second coming of Jesus Christ the Lord will give to all mankind a pure language (Zeph. 3: 8-9).

The whole earth was of one language, Gen. 11: 1. The Lord did confound the language of all the earth, Gen. 11: 4-9. Every man heard them speak in his own language, Acts 2: 1-6. The Lord speaketh unto men according to their language, 2 Ne. 31: 3 (D&C 1: 24). Benjamin taught his sons the language of his fathers, that they might become men of understanding, Mosiah 1: 2-5. He whose language is meek and edifieth is of God if he obey mine ordinances, D&C 52: 16. Become acquainted with languages, tongues, and people, D&C 90: 15. Adam and his children had a language which was pure and undefiled, Moses 6: 5-6, 46. God gave Enoch great power of language, Moses 7: 13.
