Most Latter-day Saints think they know what the Pearl of Great Price is—but what if we’ve all been misunderstanding it? Cardon sits down with Jonah Barnes, author of Lost Gems of Genesis, to uncover the overlooked origins, revelations, and hidden depth of one of the Church’s most fascinating volumes of scripture. Jonah reveals that the Pearl of Great Price isn’t one continuous text, but a compilation of distinct revelations—given to Joseph Smith, Moses, and Adam at different times. He clears up major misconceptions about the so-called Joseph Smith Translation of Genesis, explaining why it’s not really a “translation” at all. The conversation dives into: The real story behind the Pearl of Great Price’s compilation, how the “lost 116 pages” might connect to Genesis material, why Joseph Smith’s revelations show unmatched originality, and yes—why Jonah calls the Pearl of Great Price the “Oops, All Berries” of scripture. Whether you’re a lifelong member or just curious about the foundations of Latter-day Saint belief, this episode will change how you read the scriptures forever.
