Since Joseph translated without referring to the plates anyway, I guess all of the language wouldn’t have to fit. I’d be happy to send it to whomever wants to PM an email address to me.

If a single symbol like an ampersand were used for “and it came to pass” then most of the plates would be empty.

Lol…

It’s funny you say that… There’s a mayan glyph that translates as ‘it came to pass’

Probably just a coincidence…

That would make a great avatar. :geek: Come to think of it, you’ve not got one yet Brother MacKay.

Many people remember Mark Twain’s description of the BoM as “chloroform in print” (actually he was wrong it’s “Ether in print”), but how many remember when he said that if one removed “and it came to pass” from it, it would become the “Pamphlet of Mormon”?

Nice idea, I’ve been thinking I should avatar up.

I heard that pamphlet comment in the MTC from an indignant Elder who thought Twain was of the Devil! It’s a good one
