While we are not averse in principle to the general possibility that Joseph Smith may have relied on study aids as part of his translation of the Bible, we discuss why in this case such a conjecture raises more questions than it answers. We argue that a common ancient source for\u00a0<\/em>Mahujah<em>\u00a0and\u00a0<\/em>Mahijah<em>\u00a0in the Book of Moses and similar names in the Bible and an ancient Dead Sea Scrolls Enoch text named the<\/em>\u00a0Book of Giants<em>\u00a0cannot be ruled out. More broadly, we reiterate and expand upon arguments we have made elsewhere that the short and fragmentary\u00a0<\/em>Book of Giants<em>, a work not discovered until 1948, contains much more dense and generally more pertinent resemblances to Moses 6\u20127 than the much longer\u00a0<\/em>1 Enoch<em>, the only ancient Enoch text outside the Bible that was published and translated into English in Joseph Smith\u2019s lifetime.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/journal.interpreterfoundation.org\/two-essays-on-sustaining-and-enlarging-the-doctrine\/\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Daniel C.

Now that \u201cthe times of refreshing [have] come from the presence of the Lord\u201d (Acts\u00a03:18), it is imperative, both for ourselves and for a\u00a0world that needs to hear the news, that we not lose sight of the radical freshness of the divine gift and of its comprehensively transforming power. My hope for The Interpreter Foundation is that \u2014 while joyfully recognizing, indeed celebrating, the fact that prophets and apostles lead the Kingdom, not academics and intellectuals \u2014 it will contribute not only to the defense of the Restoration but to the explication of Restoration doctrines and enhanced understanding and appreciation of their riches.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/journal.interpreterfoundation.org\/we-may-not-understand-our-words-the-book-of-abraham-and-the-concept-of-translation-in-the-pearl-of-greatest-price\/\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">John S.

Terryl Givens, with some assistance from Brian Hauglid, has explored the evidence surrounding the Book of Abraham and suggests that, in this case, Joseph\u00a0Smith may not have translated an ancient record of Abraham\u2019s writings into English as typically believed in the Latter-day Saint community. Consequently, Givens provides four alternative ways the work of \u201ctranslating\u201d may have been understood or practiced by the Prophet and his scribes. This essay highlights some evidence that was overlooked, misunderstood, and glossed by Givens, calling into question his fourfold attempt at redefining what it meant for Joseph Smith to translate this ancient record.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/journal.interpreterfoundation.org\/a-priesthood-restoration-narrative-for-latter-day-saints-believers\/\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Brian C.

MacKay summarizes how Joseph\u00a0Smith\u2019s initial authority was based primarily on charisma drawn from the Book\u00a0of\u00a0Mormon translation and his revelations. The transition next to apostolic authority \u2014 derived from priesthood keys restored by Peter, James and John \u2014 is also detailed.
