It
has been almost an entire year since I began my explorations into the paradigm
shift concerning the translation method of the Book of Mormon. (Link to
first post HERE; links to subsequent posts via THIS LINK.)
Joseph Smith's Seer Stones
The Miraculous Translation of the Book of Mormon
From Darkness unto Light
The Gift and Power - Translating the Book of Mormon
Seer Stones, Salamanders, and Early Mormon "Folk Magic" in the Light of Folklore Studies and Bible Scholarship
lds.org - Gospel Topics: Book of Mormon Translation
lds.org - Church History Topics: Seer Stones
Ensign - October 2015: Joseph the Seer
Joseph Smith Papers - GLOSSARY: Seer stone
The Interpreter - The Spectacles, the Stone, the Hat, and the Book: A Twenty-first Century Believer's View of the of the Book of Mormon Translation
The Interpreter - Seers and Stones: The Translation of the Book of Mormon as Divine Visions of an Old-Time Seer
Utah State Univ. Thesis - A Pathway to Prophethood: Joseph Smith Junior as Rodsman, Village Seer, and Judeo-Christian Prophet
The
above compilation is limited to sources by contributors who embrace the belief
the Book of Mormon is divinely inspired Scripture, and that the Church
of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is: "the
only true and living church upon the face of the whole earth" (D&C 1:30).
I would like to encourage
those who are aware of other 21st century sources which discuss the translation
method of the Book of Mormon—whilst embracing the two above
presuppositions—to post such references in the combox of this thread.
Grace and peace,
