1  Thus saith the Lord God, the Mighty One of Israel: Behold, I say unto you, my servant ^bEdward, that you are blessed, and your sins are forgiven you, and you are called to preach my gospel as with the voice of a trump;

  10  And again, I say unto you, that my servant ^aEdward Partridge shall stand in the office whereunto I have appointed him. And it shall come to pass, that if he transgress another shall be appointed in his stead. Even so. Amen.

  24  And now, as I spake concerning my servant Edward Partridge, this land is the land of his ^aresidence, and those whom he has appointed for his counselors; and also the land of the residence of him whom I have appointed to keep my storehouse;

  14  There remain hereafter, in the due time of the Lord, other ^abishops to be set apart unto the church, to minister even according to the first;

  6  These things shall be had on record, to be handed over unto the ^bbishop in Zion.

  69  Nevertheless a ^abishop must be chosen from the High Priesthood, unless he is a literal descendant of Aaron;

  1  Hearken unto me, saith the Lord your God, and I will speak unto my servant Edward Partridge, and give unto him directions; for it must needs be that he receive directions how to organize this people.

  7  And let my servant Edward Partridge stand in the office to which I have appointed him, and ^cdivide unto the saints their inheritance, even as I have commanded; and also those whom he has appointed to assist him.

  17  And whoso standeth in this mission is appointed to be a judge in Israel, like as it was in ancient days, to ^bdivide the lands of the heritage of God unto his children;
