The "Joseph Smith Translation" of the Bible

Topics

Joseph Smith Translation of the Bible

Summary: A collection of articles responding to criticisms related to the Joseph Smith Translation of the Bible.

Joseph Smith Translation as a restoration of the original Bible text

Summary: If the Joseph Smith Translation (JST) is Joseph Smith's 'correction' of Biblical errors, why do these corrections not match known Biblical manuscripts?

As the Church's official Bible

Summary: Why don't Latter-day Saints use the Joseph Smith Translation of the Bible as the "official" Bible instead of the King James Version.

JST an embarrassment to leaders?

Summary: It is claimed that the Church is "embarrassed" by the Joseph Smith Translation.

Relationship of the JST to the Book of Mormon

Summary: Some passages from the Bible (parts of Isaiah, for example) were included in the Book of Mormon text. However, the same passages were later revised for the Joseph Smith Translation of the Holy Bible. In some cases these passages are not rendered identically. It is claimed that if the JST was an accurate translation, it would match the supposedly more 'pure' Isaiah text possessed by the Nephites.
