“At the very moment when I was ready to sink into despair and abandon myself to destruction . . . just at this moment of great alarm, I saw a pillar of light exactly over my head, above the brightness of the sun, which descended gradually until it fell upon me..” —Joseph Smith—History 1:16
“This image of Joseph Smith in the grove depicts the moment that he was released from destruction and the pillar of light began to descend.”
