Mormonism: Other Plagiarisms

    Book of Mormon Bible
    3 Nephi 11: 27,36 I John 5:7
    Most scholars believe this text to be an interpolation missing from manuscript, but present in KJV from which Joseph Smith copied.
    Book of Mormon Bible
    3 Nephi 11: 33-34 Mark 16:16
    Most scholars believe to be an addition by an overzealous scribe. Again, Joseph Smith copied it, unknowingly.
    Book of Mormon Bible
    3 Nephi Acts3: 12 -26
    This text is Peter’s sermon that paraphrases Deuteronomy 18: 15 – 19. Joseph Smith says that Jesus credits Moses for this text prior to the time that Peter actually delivered the message.
