Product Description
Author: Donald W. Parry
About Product: This book is an introduction to Hebraisms and Hebrew-like literary forms in the Book of Mormon that have persisted in the English translation of the text. More than two dozen such elements are identified, discussed, and related to corresponding forms found in the Hebrew Bible. The author demonstrates that the presence of these underlying literary forms is consistent with the Book of Mormon’s claimed ancient Near Eastern origins and attests the accuracy of its translation and the inspiration of its translator. This volume will bring new depth to your testimony of this keystone of our religion.
