"One must prospect through and dig into the scriptures like a miner searching for precious metal. Scattered here and there are nuggets, some pure, and some alloyed with other doctrines. Occasionally one strikes a rich vein which will yield all that you are willing to earn, for the scriptures do not explain nor interpret themselves." ~ Boyd K. Packer, A Tribute to Women, Ensign, July 1989 (delivered at the Priesthood Commemoration Fireside broadcast by satellite from Temple Square on 7 May 1989)
I love this analogy! I find analogies to be very helpful in my study.
