Doctrine and Covenants D&C 86:3
"wherefore, the tares choke the wheat and drive the church into the wilderness."
New Testament Revelation 12:6
"And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God"

Shared words: into the wilderness

Both put a persecuted body into the wilderness and the grammar of the two is opposite: the vision's woman flees, the revelation's church is driven. The vision names a duration and a prepared place; the revelation names neither. Whether the vision's woman and the revelation's church are the same referent is not stated by either text and is not settled here. Registered at the 2026-08-11 editorial review.
