Where did you do your undergraduate work and what was your major. What is your goal at Oxford. Do you know what you are going to work on for your graduate project. Will it be something that LDS apologist will be happy with?

Graduate.

Probably the divine epithet qoneh shamayim we'aretz in Gen 14:19, 22 and its meaning.

No. I have little interest in the phrase as it appears in LDS scripture.

Were parts of Genesis written by Ezekiel and scribes?
