What really caused Lucifer’s fall? In this episode, we sit down with Jonah Barnes—author of The Lost Gems of Genesis—to uncover a shocking theme hiding in the Apocrypha: Lucifer rebelled not because he was denied the role of Redeemer, but because he was jealous of Adam.
Ancient texts repeatedly describe Lucifer’s desire to be the first man—and his fury when Michael/Adam was chosen instead. Barnes argues this overlooked story is mirrored in the Book of Abraham, chapter 3, aligning Joseph Smith’s revelations with forgotten Jewish traditions.Could this be powerful evidence of Joseph Smith’s prophetic calling? And does it mean we’ve misunderstood the roles of Adam, Michael, and Lucifer for centuries?
