First 116 pages of the Book of Mormon lost

October 15th, 2009 by admin

I was so disappointed to learn that the first 116 pages of the book of mormonwere lost because Joseph Smith let Martin Harris take them so he could show his wife what he was doing. I understand how she must have felt, but obviously it ended up being a bad idea as Joseph learned. He had consequences for doing that, one of them being that he would not be allowed to translate that section again. It would be pretty awesome if the lost Book of Mormon pages ever turned up. I would love to know what they say.
