With regard to the date of Joseph Knight’s reminiscences, note that Knight references “Book of Covenants page 163.” This matches up with the 1835 Doctrine and Covenants (see here). It would appear that at least part of the document was written in 1835 or later.
“But if you are told by your leader to do a thing, do it. None of your business whether it is right or wrong.” Heber C. Kimball, 8 Nov. 1857

Isn't the bigger bombshell the discovery that one of the Knight children was called Nahum?

Great googely-moogely.
Nahum was about 9 years older than Joseph Smith.

Good catch. I see that Knight also references Book of Covenants Page 177.Shulem wrote: ↑Thu Apr 01, 2021 4:05 pmTom wrote: ↑Thu Apr 01, 2021 1:48 pmWith regard to the date of Joseph Knight’s reminiscences, note that Knight references “Book of Covenants page 163.” This matches up with the 1835 Doctrine and Covenants (see here).

Uh, it sounds like there's a missing page and they're just guessing what it is. It could be a First Vision account, or it could be treasure digging, or an unusual version of the Moroni story, or anything else. There's no actual evidence of what was on the page(s).
How is a guess a "bombshell"?

Re: Radio Free Mormon Bombshell -- Another First Vision Account
Well, I think it's a bombshell because it shows that something is missing. This is First Presidency material, information written about the founder of the Church and it seems to be commissioned by Smith himself. There are not many hands that have held those documents since it was first penned. The only hands I can think of are those under direct authority of the First Presidency.

Re: Radio Free Mormon Bombshell -- Another First Vision Account
Agreed. Could be anything. Bombshell would be something not nothing that could possibly be something. The first vision story might not have even been imagined by that point.cinepro wrote: ↑Wed Apr 07, 2021 5:43 amUh, it sounds like there's a missing page and they're just guessing what it is.
