Alma 42:26 Textual Variants

Royal Skousen
and thus cometh about the salvation and [the 01ABCDEFGHIJLMNOQRT| KPS] redemption of men

In the 1892 RLDS edition, the repeated the in this sentence was accidentally omitted; the RLDS text has maintained the shorter reading, despite the fact that the printer’s manuscript has the repeated the. Such repetition is characteristic of the original text; see the discussion under conjunctive repetition in volume 3.

Summary: Maintain in Alma 42:26 the repeated the in “the salvation and the redemption of men”.
