About Ether
Last updated: April 18, 2026
Ether is a gospel study companion grounded in the teachings of the restored gospel. You ask a question; Ether gives you an answer with the specific passages it drew from, so you can read the source yourself.
What's in the library
Every answer is grounded in a public-domain corpus:
- The standard works — the core canon of the restored gospel: the Bible (King James Version), the Book of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price.
- Jesus the Christ by James E. Talmage (1915) — a landmark study of the Savior's life, ministry, and atoning mission; still a standard reference a century after its publication.
- The Articles of Faith — Joseph Smith's thirteen concise statements of core Latter-day Saint belief, first published in 1842.
- The Lectures on Faith — seven early doctrinal lectures on the nature and power of faith, delivered in the School of the Prophets in 1834–35.
Ether also draws on modern Church sources, but only in copyright-compliant ways: we do not host, reproduce, or train on copyrighted Church content, and every reference to a modern source links you back to the original at churchofjesuschrist.org.
What to expect
Ether can be wrong. Answers can miss context, over-generalize, or surface a passage that doesn't quite fit. Treat it as a starting point, not a final word — always verify important answers against the cited sources. See our Disclaimers for a fuller picture of Ether's limits.
