A View from the Outside—An Appreciative Engagement with Grant Hardy’s Understanding the Book of Mormon: A Reader’s Guide John Christopher Thomas It is indeed an honor for me to be invited to participate in this special issue of the Journal of Book of Mormon Studies devoted to con- versations around and with Grant Hardy’s Understanding the Book of Mormon: A Reader’s Guide. This monograph is certainly worthy of such honor and is, in my opinion, one of the most significant works devoted to the Book of Mormon, having already had a major impact on the dis- cipline of Book of Mormon studies and beyond. My own contribution to this conversation will take the form of autobiographical reflections that move to an engagement with the book itself.

Title Across Arabia with Lehi and Sariah: “Truth Shall Spring out of the Earth” Author(s) Warren P. Aston Reference Journal of Book of Mormon Studies 15/2 (2006): 8–25, 110–13. ISSN 1065-9366 (print), 2168-3158 (online) Abstract Aston draws on his own research in Yemen and Oman as well as on the work of other scholars and research- ers to explore two locations in the Book of Mormon account of Lehi’s journey through Arabia: Nahom and Bountiful. Preliminarily, Aston highlights Nephi’s own directional indications for each leg of the jour- ney, considers the relevance of existing trade routes, and suggests relative durations of stops along the way. He reviews the research on the tribal area associ- ated with Nahom, including the discovery of an altar dating to roughly 600 bc that bears the tribal name NHM—possibly the first archaeological evidence of the Book of Mormon’s authenticity.

  • Reading the Book of Mormon with Grant Hardy
    Latter-day Saint Perspectives Podcast Episode 101: Reading the Book of Mormon with Grant Hardy This is not a verbatim transcript. Some wording has been modified for clarity, and timestamps are approximate. Stephen O. Smoot: 00:43 Welcome to another episode of the LDS Perspectives Podcast. I am your host for this episode, Stephen Smoot, filling in for Laura Hales, and I am very excited to be sitting down with the one and only Grant Hardy for this episode. We’re grateful to have you here, Grant. Grant Hardy: 00:58 It’s a pleasure to be here. Thanks for inviting me. Stephen O. Smoot: 01:01 Before we jump into what our discussion is today, which is your new Maxwell Institute Study Edition of the Book of Mormon, I thought it might be good to get to know you a little bit. Grant, could you tell us more about yourself, your academic background, and your personal background that got you interested in studying the Book of Mormon? Grant Hardy: 01:19 Sure. When I went to college, I went to BYU. And my first semester of my first year, I signed up for ancient Greek because why else would you go to college? Stephen O. Smoot: 01:29 Yeah. Why not? Grant Hardy: 01:29 That’s the obvious choice. I was excited about that, and then after my freshman year, I went on a mission. I was assigned to serve in Taiwan and learn Mandarin Chinese. I got interested in that as well, and then came back and continued a bachelor’s degree in ancient Greek.

  • The Cultural History of the Gold Plates
    The Mormon Scholars Foundation Annual Summer Symposium on Mormon Culture Purpose of the Mormon Scholars Foundation The Mormon Scholars Foundation seeks to foster the rising generation of LDS scholars, and all young scholars working in THE CULTURAL Mormon Studies. The Foundation sponsors an annual summer seminar, HISTORY OF THE GOLD conferences, and lectureships, where graduate students and young faculty join with senior LDS scholars in addressing the intellectual and spiritual problems arising from their work. We seek to form networks of friends who can edify one another as PLATES they explore new ways of understanding Mormon culture. The ultimate aim of the program is to prepare scholars who can more effectively convey the significance of Mormonism to a broad general audience. Thursday, August 18, 2011 Our fundamental assumption is that free and open inquiry is Room B037 Joseph F. Smith Building the best approach in intellectual and spiritual matters. Our guiding principle is voiced in the scripture: “and as all have Brigham Young University not faith, seek ye diligently and teach one another (D&C 88:118).” Hosted by the Neal A. Maxwell Institute and generously funded by the Mormon Scholars Foundation.
