Display Abstract  

Presents an outline of several Book of Mormon subjects: (1) priests in the Book of Mormon—finds that Book of Mormon priests were after the order of Melchizedek; (2) the choice seer—the choice seer was to come from the tribe of Joseph who was sold into Egypt. This seer will be named Lehi and he will be weak in speaking and will need a spokesman. This criteria does not fit Joseph Smith; (3) Zion—suggests that Zion is a spiritual condition not a literal gathering; (4) the parable of Zenos—outlines its contents, stressing the need for obedience and an ultimate cleansing.

Eyring, Carl F. “The Book of Mormon Speaks: ‘Living Scripture’” Deseret News Church Section (11 May 1940): 8.
Display Abstract  

The Book of Mormon could not have been translated from a language unknown by an unlearned young man such as Joseph Smith. Either the book was a miracle or a fraud to be explained away by natural means. Those who believed were permitted to view the plates (Martin Harris, Oliver Cowdery, David Whitmer), or were convinced of its truthfulness (Phinehas and Brigham Young and Parley P. Pratt). It is a living book that offers a rebirth for all who read it.

Morris, George Q. “What Is the Book of Mormon.” Deseret News Church Section (7 December 1940): 8.
Display Abstract  

The Book of Mormon is not an ordinary history, it is a book with a purpose. It is a “new witness” for Jesus Christ. Its greatest purpose is to convince Jews and Gentiles that Jesus is the Christ. Out of 239 chapters only seventy-five have no relationship with the things of God. The testimony of Nephi and Jacob sustain the idea that the Book of Mormon was written to bear testimony of Jesus Christ.

Display Abstract  

A literary analysis in rebuttal to allegations that the Book of Mormon was poor literature. It is found that it is a very complex document, a historical narrative, and a theological book with a purpose. It is the work of multiple writers, two abridgers, and a translator, all of whom influenced the work with their own style and idioms, yet its clarity never fails. It is “self-consistent” and the “literary style is admirably adapted to the role the book was intended for”

Display Abstract  

An historical discussion of Mormonism. The Anthon denials are discussed. Author considers the Book of Mormon to be “a strange jumble of pseudo-historical narrative and religious precept” and dismisses the book on the grounds that it is full of “outlandish errors in spelling, syntax and grammar” He also notes what he terms “countless anachronisms that exposed the author’s ignorance of geography, chronology, physical science and Bible history” He decries the book’s use of King James English and alleged pilfering of biblical material. He seems to accept the Spaulding Theory regarding its origin.

Display Abstract  

A testimony of the Book of Mormon. Truth has sprung out of the earth as Psalms 85:11 prophecies. The lost sheep of the house of Israel (Matthew 25:24) are the Nephites and Lamanites or the “voice out of the dust” (Isaiah 29:4-19). Professor Anthon fulfilled Isaiah 29:11 by saying he could not read a sealed book. The Book of Mormon is the stick of Joseph spoken of in Ezekiel 37:15-22.

Display Abstract  

Since the day of publication of the Book of Mormon, the flood of opposition towards it has increased. The Book of Mormon answers the critics successfully, fulfills biblical prophecy, and is a testimony against the world. Since not all believe, special witnesses had to be chosen. The Three Witnesses of the Book of Mormon remained true to their testimonies.

Display Abstract  

Includes two addresses about the Book of Mormon: “Book of Mormon Prophecies Fulilled,” pages 102-13, sets forth many prophecies of the Book of Mormon that have been fulilled; and “The Coming Forth of the Book of Mormon,” pages 155-70, shows that the Book of Mormon came forth at a time of spiritual unrest and higher criticism of the Bible. Includes a short narrative of the angel Moroni’s visit, the delivering of the gold plates to Joseph Smith, and provides six purposes for which the Book of Mormon was written.

A supercilious discussion on the Book of Mormon, where an unnamed author believes that its contents were derived largely from “writings by Spaulding, Isaiah, and others, with copious additions by Smith” Lists 49 similarities between the Book of Mormon and Spaulding’s manuscript. Emphasizes similarities between the Book of Mormon and the King James Bible. Associates the name “Nephi” with the Hebrew “Nephilim,” or fallen angels at the time of Noah.

Nibley, Hugh W. No, Ma’am, That’s Not History: A Brief Review of Mrs. Brodie’s Reluctant Vindication of a Prophet She Seeks to Expose. Salt Lake City: Bookcraft.
Display Abstract  

Commenting on the reception of Fawn Brodie’s biography of Joseph Smith, Thomas G. Alexander claims that “perhaps no book in recent years has evinced more comment.” He then contrasted “the scholarly Marvin Hill’s” two reviews of Brodie’s biography of Joseph Smith (Dialogue 7, no. 4 [1972]: 72–85; Church History 43, no. 1 [March 1974]: 78–96) with “the rather outrageous Hugh Nibley’s No Ma’am That’s Not History. . .’” See Thomas G. Alexander, “The Place of Joseph Smith in the Development of American Religion: A Historiographical Inquiry,” Journal of Mormon History 5 (1978): 3–17, at 10, no. 9. The bibliographer-historian Dale L. Morgan, who provided Fawn Brodie with considerable assistance with both the contents and style of her biography of Joseph Smith, described Nibley’s pamphlet as “something of a slapstick performance, and the irony of it is, Nibley . . . is much more intoxicated with his own language than you, the ‘glib English major’ are.” See Morgan’s letter to Fawn Brodie, dated 9 June 1946, in Dale Morgan on Early Mormonism: Correspondence & A New History, ed. John P. Walker (Salt Lake City: Signature Press, 1986), 125. Tertius Chandler, a dilettantish polymath and friend of Morgan, included a polemic against Nibley’s pamphlet in Chandler’s Half-Encyclopedia ([Dedham, MA]: privately printed, 1956), 662–79. (The entry is entitled “The Controversy over Joseph Smith” and is dated 14 July 1952; it was extended to include other LDS responses to Brodie’s biography of Joseph Smith in “The Controversy over Joseph Smith—Part II,” dated 1 September 1952, 675–79). BYU Special Collections has a primitive typescript version of Chandler’s “The Controversy over Joseph Smith,” dated 1 September 1952, 22 pp.
This is a short, witty reply to Fawn M. Brodie’s No Man Knows My History: The Life of Joseph Smith, the Mormon Prophet, 2nd ed., rev. and enlarged (New York: Knopf, 1945; 1971). Nibley’s response to Brodie signaled to the Saints that there was still room for a nonnaturalistic account of Joseph Smith’s prophetic claims and revelations. Cultural Mormons who celebrated a new enlightenment with the appearance of Brodie’s treatment of Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon were often troubled by what they considered Nibley’s flippant response to Brodie. Opposition to his views has also been a common feature of the secular, revisionist element in the so-called New Mormon History, which has tended to see in Brodie’s account of Joseph Smith the beginning or basic outline of an acceptable naturalistic account of Mormon things.

The Book of Mormon is “that point in our religion where faith sets foot on solid ground. Where concrete meets abstract and heaven touches earth” Archaeological evidence is convincing but the surface is still unscratched. Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon possess the secret of ancient and future America.

A radio address Sunday, October 20, 1946, over KSL. Critics of the Book of Mormon have three theories to explain the Book of Mormon: Joseph got the ideas from other books and ingeniously authored the Book of Mormon through Sidney Rigdon; Joseph used the Spaulding manuscript; or Joseph suffered from psychological delusions that account for his supposed inspiration. None of these theories have been convincing.

Sperry, Sidney B. “The Teaching Concerning Death, Judgment and the Hereafter in the Book of Mormon.” Deseret News (8 February 1947): 10, 12.
Display Abstract  

The Book of Mormon clearly teaches God’s plan in respect to the afterlife. Death is necessary for all individuals (2 Nephi 2:22-25). This life is the time to prepare to meet God (Alma 34:32, 34-35). In the spirit world there is a division of people who await the resurrection (Alma 40:9-14). There will be a judgment and all will be given a just reward according to their actions and desires (Alma 41:3-5, 2 Nephi 9:14).

Display Abstract  Display Keywords

This article discusses how the Book of Mormon prophesies much concerning the Lamanites. It is the responsibility of the Church to help them to fulfill their great destiny. It states that many are receiving the gospel and are bearing fervent testimonies and living the gospel. The author includes a letter from a father to his son in which he counsels the son to look for the “Mormons,” who have the record of his people, and the son then writes of his search for this book that would teach him the true gospel, which he found in the Book of Mormon.

Discusses Nephi’s knowledge of Egyptian and Hebrew and how the Book of Mormon plates were only written upon by a distinct class of educated people. The Jaredites “presumably [spoke] the language of Adam,” but Moroni translated their record into reformed Egyptian using the Urim and Thummim. Argues that the brass plates were also written in Egyptian since it took less space than Hebrew, and Moses knew both languages.

In some twenty pages (pages 240-61) of this polemical work the author discounts the Spaulding Theory on the grounds that the Manuscript Found has little resemblance to the Book of Mormon. Unable to accept Joseph Smith’s own claims, the author favors Woodbridge Riley’s environmental-psychological hypothesis as the best explanation for the Book of Mormon. He notes alleged modernisms and anachronisms in the book such as the use of New Testament and King James language, Westminster Confession of faith, Shakespeare, pre-Columbian domesticated animals, and the proposition of new and continual revelation.

Westenskow, Melvin. Treasures to Share. Salt Lake City: Deseret Book, 1948.
Display Abstract  

The explanation of the relationship between the Book of Mormon and the Bible is found within the pages of the Book of Mormon itself. Latter-day Saints do not replace the Bible with the Book of Mormon, they are companions, one complimenting the other. The Bible does prophesy of the Book of Mormon in many places, just as it foretells of Christ without revealing his name. The use of metal and cement in the Book of Mormon was once ridiculed, but is now verified by archaeology. The Book of Mormon adds credence to the Bible. It is a second witness to the divinity of Christ.

Display Abstract  Display Keywords

Defending the originality of the Book of Mormon, this article discusses how during the period of 1820-1830 coining words was less common than at any subsequent time in America. The fact that the Book of Mormon contains so many unfamiliar words is a testimony of its divinity. B. H. Roberts studied the names in the Book of Mormon and found that Jaredite names end with consonants and Nephite names in vowels. One hundred eighty-one new words came forth out of seventy-five working days of translation.

Benson, Ezra Taft. “America: Land of the Blessed.” Delivered at the Monday Morning Session of the General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, April 1948.
Display Abstract  Display Keywords

This article discusses how Book of Mormon prophets proclaimed the Lord’s intent to protect the blessed land of America. The brother of Jared, Nephi, Joseph Smith, and others spoke concerning America’s great destiny. Man-made governments often threaten the foundation of liberty. Though the Constitution will “hang by a thread,” the promise guarantees that the thread will not break.

Nibley, Hugh W. “The Book of Mormon as a Mirror of the East.” Improvement Era 51, no. 4 (April 1948). 202–204, 249–251.
Display Abstract  

Reprinted in a 1970 Improvement Era article.
“The average man,” wrote the great A. E. Housman, “believes that the text of ancient authors is generally sound, not because he has acquainted himself with the elements of the problem but because he would feel uncomfortable if he did not believe it.” The Book of Mormon has enjoyed no such popular support. Indeed, the “average man” would like nothing better than to see it thoroughly exposed once and for all; it has made him feel uncomfortable for over a century. What is holding up the show? The earliest version of Nibley’s theory that a portion of the meaning and the historical authenticity of the Book of Mormon can be uncovered and tested by drawing upon the literary remains of the Near East. This essay contains Nibley’s initial speculation on possible links between Book of Mormon names and Egyptian etymologies. The series drew the attention of Wesley Walters, who drafted a statement concerning its contents, a statement which was signed by William F. Albright in 1949. Since that time the Reverend Walters has been an anti-Mormon polemicist.

Nibley, Hugh W. “Baptism for the Dead in Ancient Times.” A series of articles in Improvement Era in five parts running from December 1948 through April 1950.
Display Abstract  

Reprinted in Mormonism and Early Christianity, Collected Works of Hugh Nibley vol. 4.
A note from author Hugh Nibley: “The rapid amassing of primary source works and auxiliary documents at Brigham Young University through the purchase of large collections and sets both in this country and abroad has made it possible for the first time to examine the Latter-day Saint position with reference to many ancient and valuable texts, which has been the custom of Christian scholars in general either to pass by in silence or to interpret arbitrarily. This article is in the nature of a preliminary survey dealing with a subject that has meant little to church historians in the past but on which in recent years a surprising amount of evidence has been brought to light.” Portions of Nibley’s position on baptism for the dead were briefly described and then rejected by Bernard M. Foschini, in “‘Those Who Are Baptized for the Dead,’ 1 Cor. 15:29,” Catholic Biblical Quarterly 13/1 (1951): 52–55, 70–73. Foschini offered a treatment of the language used by Paul and tried to explain away his apparent reference to baptism for the dead in a 96-page series appearing in five numbers of the Catholic Biblical Quarterly—12/3, 4 (July, October 1950): 260–76, 379–88; 13/1, 2, 3 (January, April, July 1951): 46–79, 172–98, 278–83.

Moore, C. E. “Anachronisms and the Book of Mormon.” Improvement Era 52, no. 10 (1949): 644, 659-660.
Display Abstract  Display Keywords

This article argues that there is a marked absence of anachronisms in the Book of Mormon. One method of detecting a fraudulent historical document is to examine it for anachronisms. It is almost impossible to keep such errors from slipping into documents when one is producing the document in a time period other than that about which it is being written.
