Kolob ( ) is a star described in the Book of Abraham, a sacred text of the Latter-day Saint movement, as the heavenly body nearest to the throne of God. Several Latter-day Saint denominations believe that the Book of Abraham was translated from an ancient Egyptian papyrus scroll by Joseph Smith, the movement's founder. While the Book of Abraham calls Kolob a "star", it also calls planets "stars", and therefore some Latter-day Saint commentators consider Kolob a planet. Kolob also appears in the culture of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), such as the hymn, "If You Could Hie to Kolob."
