I have come to these forums looking for information on the giants. Specifically King Og of Bashan. There is a recently released document that featured King Og's writings. I was hoping to discuss this here. I have questions as to how this applies to my faith.

I found this Wikipedia page describing Og and his place in the Old Testament: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Og%2C_King_of_Bashan  It does not mention any "recently released" (or other) records claimed to be written by Og. Do you have a reference describing them?

As for how it applies to your faith, I don't know if I can say. LDS consider the OT, NT, BoM, D&C, and PoGP as the only canonized scripture. As far as I know, nothing written by Og is included in that scripture canon, so I don't know if I would consider anything written by Og to have any application to my faith at all. It might be interesting to see what Og had to say about his life and how that compares to the Israelite account of him, but I don't know that that comparison would be enough to give his writings any application to my faith.
