Zakuska Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 It doesn't matter that he got this right, he got so much wrong. Opps, he go it wrong.Actually this is a pretty good one. Do we have a source for it?4 See Lundquist,

Woody Posted February 23, 2010 Posted February 23, 2010 I really don't see "why" you have to go that direction. Did you ever consider that his explanations WERE "inspired"?What's the probability that Joseph Smith dictated and carefully proofread all of the Explanations for the Facsimiles?Why didn't he publish more of the Book of Abraham? Was it because he was busy during that time? First installment: bunch of text, a picture. Second installment, more text, a picture. Third installment: picture only. Fourth installment: nothing. The project has certain signs of trailing off unfinished...What if somebody else put together the later Times and Seasons installments, with less and less supervision from Joseph as time went on?What if what if what if, but can you prove otherwise? Ie. can you prove that Joseph didn't talk about the pictures and somebody put together the Explanation for no. 3 out of what they remembered of what he said.Wood

Considering the importance of the Standard Works, you'd hope there'd be a pretty rock-solid selection process for materials included therein!
