All these years later, I don't remember if this is a type of booze, or some secret words from the temple.

Yes, that is what it meant. It was from the 'Adamic' language - the most correct and undefiled language (roll of eyes) and was supposed to mean Oh God hear the words of my mouth - which is actually what they say now days in the temple, instead of the the Pay Lay Ale.

However, I am sure it came about because those were the rules as per Jesus Smith: Pay me, Lay me, and Ale me. That seemed to have been the jist of the religion.

Supposedly meant oh lord hear the words of my mouth.

As opposed to the words of my butt that you hear so much about these days.








Little dog humor there.

It's how Adam and Eve would have used their ancient language to say a sentence in the temple ritual.

After the temple in Hawaii opened, I think they changed this to English because of inappropriate connotations read into it by those who speak the traditional Hawanian tongue.

Couldn't be Hawaii connection. Maybe something else? Words didn't change until 1990, Hawaii temple dedicated 1919.

I think I read about this years ago on Cricket's Salamander site.
