Studies of the Book of Mormon by B H Roberts - 1992 2nd edition LDS book. 3e19 “Studies of the Book of Mormon” is a collection of essays by B. H. Roberts, a prominent LDS Church leader and historian, written in the early 20th century but not published until 1985, with a second edition released in 1992. In these essays, Roberts critically examines the origins and authenticity of the Book of Mormon, exploring potential parallels between it and other contemporary works, notably Ethan Smith’s View of the Hebrews.  Roberts’s analysis delves into various similarities, such as narratives of ancient migrations to the Americas, the use of Isaiah’s prophecies, and the concept of a lost Israelite heritage among Native Americans. He also addresses anachronisms within the Book of Mormon, including references to animals, plants, and technologies not present in pre-Columbian America. Importantly, Roberts did not publish these essays during his lifetime. They were intended as internal documents to prompt further scholarly examination and were only made public decades later. The release of these writings sparked discussions about Roberts’s personal beliefs, though there is no definitive evidence that he renounced his faith. The 1992 edition of Studies of the Book of Mormon provides valuable insight into early 20th-century LDS scholarship and the complexities of faith and critical inquiry within the Church.
