The Context and Significance of a Divine Revelation

As Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon in 1829, Martin Harris was entrusted with the 116 page manuscript, but lost the 116 pages. Scott and Casey discuss the context and controversies surrounding the losing of the Book of Mormon manuscript, a revelation to Joseph Smith Sr., and the first foreshadowing of the role of the Three Witnesses. Today's controversy surrounds prophetic infallibility and how God could have allowed Joseph Smith to lose the 116 pages of the Book of Mormon manuscript.
