Literary: This is now the third time that Moroni mentions imperfections in the record, and this time he specifically notes that they might be in either his or his father’s words. The message is more important than the form of the message. The miracle of the existence of the Book of Mormon should be taken as a greater witness than the errors that we might find in it. Moroni’s most poignant admonition is “that ye may learn to be more wise than we have been.”
