Scarcely a day goes by that doesn’t include a headline or breaking news story of some event in the Middle East. Wars, rumors of wars, suicide bombings, unrest, and hatred seem almost to be a way of life for the people of this “holy” land. Where did the conflicts originate? Why are they perpetuated? Why is there so much hatred? Is there any hope for peace? What will happen to that area of the world in the last days? In Latter-day Insights: The Middle East, Dr. Victor L. Ludlow, a well-respected scholar and lecturer, discusses the historical, cultural, and religious factors that have contributed to the volatility in that region. He also examines the ancient and latter-day prophecies for the Holy Land. This fascinating talk from an LDS perspective will increase your awareness and understanding of the issues facing the people of the Middle East.
