A Commentary on Joseph Smith's Revision of Acts through Revelation

This book is a commentary on the revisions Joseph Smith, founding prophet of the Latter-day Saint movement, made to the books of Acts through Revelation as a part of his ¿new translation¿ of the Bible completed in 1833 (today commonly referred to as the Joseph Smith Translation). It begins with a history of the scholarship relating to the textual revisions, followed by a new paradigm for categorizing the revisions. The meat of the book goes through each of the 554 textual revisions made to the King James Version of the New Testament (other than the Gospels), analyzing them and assigning them to one or more categories on the paradigm. By evaluating this significant portion of the JST project we can gain a better understanding of the types of revisions Smith made to the Bible as a whole.
