BYU Studies

John W. Welch, Editor in Chief of BYU Studies, has informed me of a comprehensive list of articles dealing with the temple that have been published in the journal BYU Studies over the years. This is a fantastic collection of LDS scholarship on the temple, dealing with a wide variety of temple-related topics, including book reviews, with direct links to the articles on the BYU Studies website.

After clicking on the links below, you can click on the “Download Article/PDF: FREE” link on the right-hand side to download, read, and print a PDF of each article. The majority of these articles are free to download and read, but a few recently published articles might have a small price attached (BYU Studies subscribers can log in to the website to read these articles also for free).

The list is in alphabetical order by title.
