  2. The differences in this account and the canonized one? This one focuses on Joseph's personal forgiveness and there is much less from God about the apostate world, since Joseph has already concluded there wasn't a true church, while this conclusion is given by good in the later account. Also a huge glaring difference is only one divine being is mentioned (the Lord), not two, which interestingly is consistent with Joseph's understanding and teaching on the godhead during this time. #josephsmith

  6. The 1832 account is the earliest known version, written in Joseph Smith’s own handwriting 12 years after the event and there is no other contemporary record from anyone. It was written in a letterbook but never publicly known until the 1960s. This version was removed from the letterbook and hidden in a safe when Joseph Fielding Smith first found it because it was so strange.

    Hinckley says he's not worried that Joseph Smith's multiple versions of his First Vision. He dismisses these different versions of the vision without ever mentioning any differences in the accounts. His goal is calming members who have heard of these strange accounts, and hope they will not look at them.

  14. wasmormon.org/joseph-smith-was The church denied the strange magic practices of Joseph's Smith. Facts they now claim were commonplace. The church apologists yearn to dismiss the practices as astrology or gambling today, but does that make them better? They denied Joseph was involved and that he used his seer stone for treasure digging out translation.

    LDS Historian, Richard Bushman concedes that Joseph Smith was looking for treasure. He argues that this was “part of a culture found virtually everywhere,” “something like reading astrological charts today—a little goofy but harmless,” “too commonplace to be scandalous,” “too common in the nineteenth century for it to invalidate Joseph Smith,” because, he states “folk traditions and religion blend.”

  22. Interestingly enough, after Joseph was tried for using his seer stone while digging for treasure and being found a fraud, he allegedly found the gold plates with his seer stone, and translated then with his seer stone. The text of the Book of Mormon includes multiple references to this concept of slippery treasures. It seems Joseph could have easily written in this as validation to his digging for treasure.

  26. Book of Mormon Anachronisms – Slippery Treasures and Treasure Digging Concepts

    The Smith family and other treasure seekers believed that enchantments on buried treasure had the power to move the location of the treasure under the earth so that those seeking the hidden valuables could not acquire them. These were called slippery treasures.

  30. Benjamin Franklin on Treasure Seeking Seers. Franklin saw the folly and called it out as the “most egregious folly and madness.”

    The church denied Joseph’s involvement with treasure digging until the evidence was no longer possible to refute or ignore. There is no doubt today that Joseph Smith was deeply involved with treasure digging.
