Never fear...a BYU professor is the editor for a new edition of the Old Testament....wonder if it will be cross-referenced to the BOM. ;)

I think the LDS church should stick with its clarification as to why so many changes in the BOM, if it was translated correctly in the beginning (three different accounts on how the BOM was written/translated) ... it had to be “revised” many times in order to take care of spelling or grammar corrections. The original text betrays its New England origin in many ways, from inconsistent spelling to incorrect use of tenses and number, as well as incorrect usage of Jacobean English. Then of course not counting incorporating known mistakes (subsequently corrected) in the Bible into the BOM ...
