“Response to Jenkins”

“Response to Jenkins”

 

Of late, in a series of blog posts, a rather well-known non-Mormon historian has taken quite negative aim at the Book of Mormon.  His arguments aren’t very good and, in this area at least, he doesn’t really know very much, but, because of who he is, they probably merit reply from a faithful Latter-day Saint scholar.  Who will take up the task?

 

My friend and former BYU colleague Bill Hamblin appears poised to do so.

 

St. Paul, statue in Rome
A statue of the Apostle Paul at the Basilica di San Paolo fuori le Mura (the Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls) in Rome, the traditional site of his burial. Please note the book that he’s carrying. That’s okay. But the sword? Far too martial. He was clearly some sort of nasty apologist, not fit for academia.

 

Dr. Hamblin contributes an item for the “You probably shouldn’t hold your breath” file:
