Hebrew Voices #206 – Revelation or imagination: Part 3

Nehemia: And here’s why this is so valuable for someone like me. It would have never occurred to me that someone would change the original manuscript based on a copy, but that can happen. It happened here.
Royal: When they think it’s right, they’re going to do it.
Nehemia: Wow.
Royal: Nothing’s going to stop them.
Nehemia: That’s amazing, that’s absolutely amazing.
Shalom, and welcome to Hebrew Voices! I’m here today with Royal Skousen. Royal, thank you for coming and joining me on this program. I’m so excited! And one last thing in this pitch, guys, just so you understand who we’re dealing with here. This is the Emanuel Tov of the Book of Mormon. I don’t think that’s an exaggeration. No, really! I mean, you’re the guy! So, the fact that you’re joining me on my program, I’m really honored.
Let’s look at this example. So, there’s a section that you talk about where the 1830 edition was typeset based on the printer’s manuscript, but then proofread against the original.
Royal: Yeah, only one signature. One signature that we know of.
