“Here we have a concrete and indisputable example of an ancient Israelite practice. … If we hide [our treasures] unto the Lord, that’s a good thing; he wants us to hide treasures to him, in regular old Jewish fashion. Again, Baruch, the secretary of Jeremiah, writes that when Jerusalem was destroyed (referring to the destruction of Jerusalem at the time of Lehi), the Lord wanted the treasures to be buried up unto him. It’s a rule, and now we know from the Copper Scroll that it was actually done. … When we flee before our enemies, we hide our treasure up unto the Lord; it’s a commandment” (Nibley, Temple and Cosmos, 217).
