During the winter of 1838–39, the Prophet Joseph Smith, his brother Hyrum, and four other brethren were unjustly imprisoned in the Liberty Jail in Liberty, Missouri. This place of extreme adversity and suffering became a holy place where God talked to a living prophet and gave significant teachings for all mankind. (See D&C 121–23.)
