Descriptions:
The Book of Mormon is considered the “keystone” of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. If the Book of Mormon proves to be a massive hoax, then Latter-day Saint truth claims come tumbling down. Thus, as you decide what to make of the Book of Mormon, the more information you have, the better. To that end, this episode explores the timing of the original translation of the Book of Mormon. This information does not prove the Book of Mormon is true, but it is information that should be taken into account as you decide what to make of this book.

Notes:
— From John Welch: “…little substantive evidence has turned up that either Harris or Emma Smith took much, if any, dictation in 1828 after the lost manuscript pages were completed in June 1828, or that Martin wrote as a scribe for Joseph during Martin’s short visit to Harmony, Pennsylvania, in March 1829.7 At that time Martin was embroiled in a lawsuit brought against him by his wife, Lucy Harris, seeking to prohibit him from having any further dealings with Joseph Smith.” Source: “Timing the Translation of the Book of Mormon,” by John Welch.
