Vest, H. Grant. “The Problem of Isaiah in the Book of Mormon.” Master’s thesis, Brigham Young University, 1938.
Display Abstract  

A textual analysis of the Isaiah scriptures found in the Book of Mormon compared with the King James Version. The similarities, often word for word, between the two texts are explained but greater emphasis is given to the many differences found in the comparison. Where differences are noted, the Book of Mormon agrees with other versions of Isaiah texts—i.e. the Syriac, Septuagint, and Latin versions. Other differences are found to be Joseph Smith’s own word choice while translating.
