This is a report on the discovery of major pre-exilic Israelite feasts, festivals, holy days, and related religious practices within the Book of Mormon, their implications for study of the text, insights into the continuity of religious practices from pre-exilic to modem times, and the potential contribution of the Book of Mormon to the study of pre-exilic Israelite religion.
