According to Rabbi Sam Spector of Congregation Kol Ami in Salt Lake City, Jews and Latter-day Saints have a lot in common. Brigham Young, who pioneered the move of Mormons to Utah, is often referred to by his followers as America’s Moses. He led his followers “across the Mississippi, across the wilderness, and settled in a promised land that had America’s Dead Sea.” He called it Zion.
