| Video Discription | Latter-day Saints today adhere to a rather strict interpretation of the Word of Wisdom, but it wasn’t always that way. In this episode, David Snell talks about how the Latter-day Saint interpretation of the Word of Wisdom has evolved over time.

Harper: https://bit.ly/3G9mmJe — “The history and implementation of the Word of Wisdom” via FAIR: https://bit.ly/3PAgIUz Notes: — A quote about Brigham Young, who had his own struggles with the Word of Wisdom: “He had been in the habit of using tobacco, but he had left it off; he did not drink whisky, brandy, rum, wine, tea nor coffee, and he felt so much better for his abstemiousness that he would recommend others to follow his example.” Deseret News, Oct 15, 1862. — Fun fact: During the early Utah era, the Saints raised their own tobacco and wine-grapes. Leadership figured that if the Saints were going to spend a bunch of money importing these products from outside the territory, it made more economic sense to just produce the products within the territory. — In 1877, Emily Dow Partridge gave a good overview of how the Saints were doing with the Word of Wisdom at the time (spoiler alert: they weren’t doing very well). It’s longer than I can include here, but you can find it on page 66 of this thesis: https://bit.ly/3yJwc2w — The Saints in Utah, for many years, even grew their own tobacco and wine grapes. These items were used for medicinal and sacramental purposes (respectively), but recreationally (for lack of a better word) as well, as far as I can tell. More on this in the thesis linked above. — Despite the 1921 date when obedience to the WoW became a requirement in order to receive a temple recommend, it’s not until 1933 that the change shows up in the Church’s handbook of instructions. Source: https://bit.ly/3NY8YdA — “The greatest concentration of emphasis on the Word of Wisdom in the history of the Church came during the late Thirties and early Forties.” Source: Pg. 98 here (read for additional context): https://bit.ly/3yJwc2w — Speaking within the context of the 1870s: “[Brigham Young] increasingly put his hope in Zion’s youth, and to reach them he used the recently established Church auxiliaries of Sunday School and the young men’s and young ladies’ organizations. These organizations taught Word of Wisdom abstinence and even encouraged temperance pledges.” Source: https://bit.ly/3tsOVfn — Particularly in the 1800s early Utah era, adherence to the WoW was largely encouraged for economic reasons. The Saints were spending a good chunk of change in order to import substances discouraged by the WoW.
