Doctrine and Covenants D&C 113:3
"What is the rod spoken of in the first verse of the 11th chapter of Isaiah, that should come of the Stem of Jesse?"
Old Testament Isaiah 11:1
"And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:"

Shared words: of the Stem of Jesse

The question names its source by book, chapter, and verse. The answer, D&C 113:4, identifies a person without naming him: 'a servant in the hands of Christ, who is partly a descendant of Jesse as well as of Ephraim, or of the house of Joseph, on whom there is laid much power'. Divergences: the prophecy's rod comes forth out of the stem; the question's should come of it. Registered separately from w6-dc113-stem-jesse-isa11 because it pairs a different question verse with the same prophecy verse - a different verse pair.
