 * or possibly some special patriarchal order related to being an "appointed ... seed". [[Moses 6:1]]
-Nowdays, in the restored Church, the Priesthood is frequently defined as the authority to act in the name of God.  Based on this definition, it might be inappropriate to consider certain of the activities listed above as specifically pertaining to the Priesthood.  For example, it seems that fathers who do not have the Priesthood are able to teach their children to read and write and everyone is given the right to "call upon the name of the Lord."

 On the other hand, all of these actions may be viewed as the function of a father acting as a patriarch according to the patriarchal order of the priesthood.  If so, then this list may provide an outline of patriarchal priesthood responsibilities which can only be ''fully'' performed by one given the authority to act in God's name.  For example, while all can pray, calling upon the name of the Lord in the true order of prayer is only available through the priesthood.  In this sense, familial relationship between father and son may be one ''type'' of priesthood relationship.

 Since D&C 128 is a treatise on baptism for the dead, these common themes suggests that there is indeed some profound connection between the patriarchal priesthood and "the subject of the baptism for the dead" revealed to Joseph Smith in [[D&C 128:1|D&C 128]]. The return of a priesthood, "which was in the beginning," at the very "end of the world also" seems to be the precise concern of that section of the Doctrine and Covenants.
