“Lay Hold Upon Every Good Gift, and Touch Not the Evil Gift”

Brant Gardner

When Moroni urges his future readers to “lay hold upon every good gift,” he is alluding to his father’s discourse (Moro. 7:19–21).

Reference: “Touch not… the unclean thing” echoes 2 Corinthians 16:17: “Touch not the unclean thing.”
