The first volume
in the Revelations and Translations series will be the next
offering published by The Church Historian’s Press as part
of the Joseph Smith Papers Project. This series will
reproduce the earliest manuscripts of Joseph Smith’s written
revelations and translations, together with the official
editions of these documents as they were published during
his lifetime. These publications include the first edition
of the Book of Mormon (1830), the first publication of a
collection of Joseph Smith’s revelations called A Book of
Commandments (1833) and the first edition of the Doctrine
and Covenants (1835). This
article by Elder Marlin K. Jensen will be published
in future editions of the Ensign and Liahona.
