- The Church Historian’s Press has released a new volume of the Joseph Smith Papers that includes color photographs and color-coded transcriptions of the Book of Mormon’s earliest manuscript. This is the first complete photographic record of what remains of the original manuscript.
The new book is called “The Joseph Smith Papers: Revelations and Translations, Volume 5: Original Manuscript of the Book of Mormon.” This is the final volume of the “Revelations and Translations” series. And it is the 23rd of 26 total volumes of the larger Joseph Smith Papers Project, which will be complete in the spring of 2023.
Many thanks to Gail and Larry H Miller for their amazing contribution to this project. And also to all of those involved with the project.
What a blessing! My testimony of the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon has helped me through every question and every rough spot these 45 years since my conversion. It has also magnified my faith in Jesus Christ and my love for the Bible.
How grateful I am for The Book of Mormon! It has changed my life. Words cannot express my gratitude. I was only 17 when I read it's pages for the first time.
💙 20 July 1997 💙
A divine work. Yes, indeed. Millions shall know Brother Joseph.
While I am shocked that these manuscripts were handed out as "souvenirs", I am grateful that they have been brought together again and that they can be shared with the World through technologies that we have been blessed with in these latter days.
When they mentioned about gathering and piecing together the torn manuscripts of the Book of Mormon, I thought about the Gathering of Israel and helping to piece together Family lines and generations back to their original roots.
This will be a wonderful addition to the Joseph Smith Papers, our Church's History, and for sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ with those around our sphere of influence. In addition, this will help us become as close as we can be to the physical record from the Gold Plates.
What a wonderful opportunity! I am grateful for all those involved in this project and for Sister Miller's willingness to contribute to these Sacred and Historical texts. 😊❤🕊
I feel so blessed to be part of this gospel and that I know the Book of Mormon is true and that I have the blessing/opportunity to show others as well.
A lot of thanks to the Millers! We have such a great community to make things like this possible!
A very valuable book. A late friend of mine held a original Book of Mormon and it was insured for $30000. This is amazing.
So amazing! Joseph Smith truly was ordained to be the prophet of the restoration. And we are very blessed to have these historians and scholars who work tirelessly on the project to help in bringing it forth to the world. Incredible!
Yes.
It's cool that this resource will be available to anyone. Thanks for describing that background behind it. What a great gift from the Millers.
Wow, this is so phenomenal! The Book of Mormon is my favorite book of all time, and I always recommend it at book clubs, etc. I say that if I were stuck on an island with only one item / book that I could bring, it would be the Book of Mormon. It has profoundly changed my life & my family's life and improved everything about it. It has given me a deep and abiding knowledge of who I am, why I am here, and where I will go when I'm dead. It has helped me see true potential for myself and all of humanity, and it has given me purpose and a testimony of the love that our Savior Jesus Christ has for me and everyone else ever. Christ is the foundation, and the Book of Mormon is the supporting beams.
So much sacrifice and dedication to make this book available to all (both from those in ancient times & in more modern times), it is truly a treasure so great no price could be enough!
What a treasure! I am thankful to those who put so much into preserving these sacred pages.
I found God through the Book of Mormon and the Bible when I was 17. When the missionaries taught me for the first I had an overwhelming peaceful feeling come to me. About 4 years later in 2019, I was worthy to serve a mission during the COVID 19 pandemic. It wasn’t easy, but I can say I brought a family I love dearly to him.🙂
Thank you so much for your service in such difficult circumstances!
The missionaries spoke with me when I went back to them after being skeptical about it all. Now, I am here, preaching His truth everywhere I go. No one, not even the catholics can change my mind. Not even earthly admins and mods on discord servers can make me fear them. They have no true power. They are mortals. Soon to die. Their actions will be held accountable. The Holy Ghost has testified to me of these truths.
Alma always makes me cry. I love the prophets and I love the book of Mormon so much. I'm beyond grateful for the opportunity to have a testimony of Joseph Smith. So many people will be shocked to see Joseph Smith Jr among the prophets of old.
Great to hear! So glad that our church takes such great care of our history!
Royal Skousen was a graduate professor of mine and later a colleague. I stand in awe of the work Royal has done with the original and printer's manuscripts, along with his Book of Mormon critical texts work of the past three--plus decades. I was so pleased to see Royal shaking hands with President Nelson and to receive the Prophet's appreciation for Royal's work.
Likewise, thank you to Larry H. and Gail Miller for their financial support of the mammoth undertaking of the Joseph Smith Papers Project. Larry H. Miller was all-in because of his love for the words in the hymn "Praise to the Man" which say, "Millions shall know Brother Joseph again." That was what Larry H. Miller wanted to help bring to fruition.
Wow amazing!! We are so blessed by the Book of Mormon.
This is a marvelous work and a wonder that has stood the test of time and persecution and will stand and testify of The Christ and His gospel here on this Western hemisphere.
I am able to listen to the whole book every day in an 8 hour period. I have been taught from on high by Gods spirit teaching my mind and testifying to my heart of its truthfulness. There is salvation in the word of God spoken by prophets of old.
I will be ever indebted to my friend and former stake president who shared this recording with me.
I plan on buying all the volumes later this year. I have always wanted to own those books and will finallllly have an opportunity to do so.
I guess we often don't see today what will become history tomorrow. It is sad that some of the manuscript was lost but what we have left is wonderful :)
I am very grateful for the Book of Mormon and am really enjoying studying in the Pearl of Great Price now! Thanks to Joseph Smith accepting his calling from God :)
Thank you for this precious gift Gale and Larry Miller. Man I started to cry when I heard her name!
Awesome! So inspiring when we know what they went through for the Book of Mormon
I did not know that the book of Moroni and Ether were heavily damaged. Thanks for making this accessible and may the original manuscript be preserved into the millennium.
Wow this is so neat I would love to get this volume myself as a member of the church of Jesus Christ of the latter day saints this would be a marvelous resource and to be able to see the changes between now and back then what an amazing piece of history this is
This is great, history revisited,and clarified. Its wonderful.
Thank you for the faith of all those work so hard to further developed the truth of the Prohet JOSEPH SMITH and our living Prohet today convert member.
I have this volume! It is just surreal to look at.
I hope to get it for my birthday!
Super cool. It's neat to be connected to the real history.
This is more than merely amazing! Wow 🤩
How blessed are we in this dispensation even to know the restored gospel
Indeed millions shall know brother Josegh again
Wonderful and exciting!
So great!
I want to share my testimony of the Book of Mormon and restoration of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and of the prophet Joseph Smith. This book changed my life completely as I struggled with addiction for most of my life and fell away from the church in the process. As I started reading the Book of Mormon it helped me overcome my addiction and helped me in my conversion back into the gospel. I know that the prophet Joseph Smith was a true prophet and I’m very grateful for him and love him so much. I love my Savior Jesus Christ and testify that this is his church and know I have came to know the savior through the Book of Mormon. I know it’s true every bit of it is true. It is the word of God and those who diligently seek will find what they are looking for in this book
Thank you for sharing your testimony!
How cool is that! 😃👏
This was amazing to to have come back together. -Chad James
Congratulations for all for this impressive work. I know that the Book Of Mormon is a true record of ancient inhabitants of America.
MAGNIFICENT!!
What a wonderful gift to the world.
Awesome!
God bless you Ms. Miller
Wonderful!
Wow I can't wait to check the original manuscript that he translated using a seer stone in a hat. He didn't even need those gold plates. Amazing
Just imagine how impressed you would be if you could read it.
I'm grateful watching 💗🎃❤️
WOW!!! exciting
The Book of Mormon truly is the keystone of our religion and is a true witness of Jesus Christ. To leave or doubt this Church, one has to get around this book, which is not possible if you are honest with yourself. How did Joseph Smith get so many things right and how does one explain the Book of Mormon? The only logical and true answer is that Joseph Smith is a Prophet of God and was his instrument in restoring the Church of Christ to the earth in these latter days. I am so grateful for that knowledge and invite all to come and see for themselves.
Wow, just wow. See the original,190+ year-old, hand written manuscript pages of The Book of Mormon, and the teamwork that brought our prophet, President Russell M. Nelson, Royal Skousen, leading BYU scholar on the original manuscript, restoration technologists, and sponsors Larry H. Miller and Gail Miller, (former owners of the NBA Utah Jazz) together to accomplish an amazingly important historical restoration work. It makes my heart swell. Love this.
Yes, Thank YOU Gail and Larry H Miller for helping this come to pass, for the world!
Incredible!
*Wow. That's cool!*
That’s wonderful to see
I Love it. It would be so great if a font could be made of the original hand writing and be used as an option of reading in the gospel library app
Thanks for sharing this video.
I want it for my birthday so badly.
Beautiful!!!⚘
The Church is true. My testimony stands.
❤️❤️❤️
By showing the man we see even better in him the Prophet of Jesus Christ. Thank you!
❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏
That's incredible
💕
Amém
Everyone should use this church resource to compare 1Nephi 11 and see how the Book of Mormon has changed
Yet another reason to love Gail Miller.
It was cut up into pieces?? How bizarre....
Dec23,1805 is his birthday.
How close is this orginal version to the current BOM? I wonder the main differences are.
Now will you please release the first 116 pages of the manuscript? 😉
Well, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John really did talk to Jesus
Not correct , only Matthew and John spoke to him. Luke was a disciple of Paul and Mark was a disciple of Peter
Yes! And Jesus Christ also talked with Joseph Smith.
Kind of a missed opportunity not putting a direct link to the Joseph Smith papers in the description area of this TH-cam video.
I wonder if he ever wrote about all the women he got sealed to before ever telling Emma?
The church paid 34 million dollars for it......please correct me if I'm wrong.
Pueblos de mexico
Can someone tell me how to buy this manuscript book?
Where are the tablets now?
I believe that our prophet joseph smith is true and our Jesus Christ and heavenly father
If it’s important and critical, as she says, why did they need a big mega donor to fund this instead of using funds LDS church has from tithing?
Tithing is used to build temples, build and maintain meetinghouses.
They're all vaccinated, so why are they all wearing masks? Secondly, if they feel so concerned and endangered, as to wear their masks, maybe don't shake hands.
The mask are disturbing. It dulls the spirit!
The scam continues.
