The like figure

[mordorbund]

That might be a good point--but considering that the BOM prophets knew of baptism at eight--then the LDS could also believe that baptism at eight was known to Peter.

Knowing that--it is not out of the question that the scripture could have been a reference to that very figure.

Could you provide a verse that shows the Book of Mormon prophets taught baptism at the age of eight?

[volgadon]

There is a nother consideration, aside from any philological ones. In a community of mainly adult converts, would Peter be talking of baptism at the age of eight, or would he be speaking of the cleansing power of water.
