If Joseph made the change then why in a October 1960 LDS Church Conference, Spencer Kimball using 2 Nephi 30:6 when he stated how the Indians "are fast becoming a white and delightsome people." He said, "The Indian children in the home placement program in Utah are often lighter than their brothers and sisters in the hogans on the reservation. Wouldn't the church authority know about the change? Then why did they still uses it? So do we be leave that they will turn white? Is that why the change was made? Because they are not turning white?

I was over at my parents house looking through my dads old BoM from when he went on a mission and I found something that I don't understand. I came across 2 Nephi 30:6 and in his BoM the end reads "their scales of darkness shall begin to fall from their eyes; and many generations shall not pass away among them, save they shall be a white and a delightsome people." I know and checked to see but my newer BoM reads their scales of darkness shall begin to fall from their eyes; and many generations shall not pass away among them, save they shall be a Pure and a delightsome people." I was always taught that the BoM is the most correct book in the world and was a perfect translation. I did a little looking and it looks like the change was made in 1981. Why are there changes to the BoM if it is the most correct book and was a perfect translation? Thanks for the help
