“They Also Brought Forth Their Records Which Contained the Holy Scriptures”

D. Kelly Ogden, Andrew C. Skinner

Brigham Young University religion professors McConkie and Millet, referring to the records brought forth, noted that “this is one of the evidences in the Book of Mormon that many (if not most) of the believers had scriptural records. Though there may have been only one set of metal plates (such as the brass plates), surely hundreds and thousands of other sets of records, copies—less durable but more accessible—could be found among the descendants of Lehi. See Jacob 7:23; Alma 33:2; Helaman 3:13; 3 Nephi 5:9.” 30
