He didn't want to write in it, and did the bare minimum just to fulfill his duty, and got rid of the record as fast as possible.<br /><br />It's as backed up as any other theory I've seen proposed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-50507551160652622612008-04-23T11:13:00.000-05:002008-04-23T11:13:00.000-05:00For all the pros and cons about the church there i...For all the pros and cons about the church there is one thing that nothing will ever change for me; that when I got down on my knees and asked if it was true-when I got up I knew it was. I cant prove a lot of things about the Book of Mormon and there have been times that I have wondered and it comes down to-Do I really believe that Joseph, Oliver, David O. Spencer W, Thomas S would lie to me and I dont think so.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10731544341855307339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-1098205509033451572004-10-19T12:05:00.000-05:002004-10-19T12:05:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-1098042776759240372004-10-17T14:52:00.000-05:002004-10-17T14:52:00.000-05:00That is a really interesting point, and one I woul...That is a really interesting point, and one I would have never thought of.

As a result, I think everyone after him was suffering from concern with how to use the limited space that was left over.<br /><br />Chemish is unusually brief and certainly deserves that kind of attention. Was it lack of preparation? Was it lack of spiritual experiences or revelations to share? Insecurity? Carpal tunnel syndrome? It's hard to tell.<br /><br />It's interesting that any Chemish type characters in the Bible were probably edited out. This Chemish verse just points even more towards the fact that the Book of Mormon has more transitions and explanations of how the text was handled, edited and passed on than any other book of scripture. In fact I can't really think of any book of scripture that compares at all in this way. Even the Pearl of Great Price. Perhaps lack of transitions is an example of plain and precious truths that were removed from other scriptural books.<br /><br />Danithew<br />http://www.wump.info/wumpblogAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
