This is a textbook case of grammatical chaos in the Book of Mormon …

“[W]herefore the things which he shall write are just & true & behold they are written in the Book which thou beheld proceding out of the mouth of the Jew & at the time they proceded out of the mouth of the Jew thes or at the time the Book proceded out of the mowth of the Jew the things which were written were plain & pure & most precious & easy to the understanding of all men”

1 Nephi 14:23, Book of Mormon Comparative (West Valley City, UT: Self-Published, August 2017), 43.

This kind of clumsy, meandering repetition wouldn’t pass a freshman composition class. Yet we’re meant to believe it came from the mouth of God?
