description: In this important work, Michael T. Griffith answers criticisms of the Book of Mormon raised by anti-Mormon writers and presents numerous evidences of the veracity of that sacred text. This book documents a wide array of evidences of the Nephite record. Exciting new research developments are discussed in detail, including recent studies on archaeology and the Book of Mormon; computer wordprint tests; ancient near eastern language elements in the Nephite record; the geography of the Book of Mormon, and cultural parallels between ancient America and the Old World. This book also refutes challenges raised by critics against the Nephite record. The following are some of the anti-Mormon issues considered and answered Bible passages in the Book of Mormon; Ethan Smith's View of the Hebrews and the nephite record; the Spaulding theory; alleged anachronisms in the Book of Mormon; Alma 7:10 and the place of the Savior's birth; supposed conflicts between archaeology and the Book of Mormon, and the accuracy and completeness of the Bible. Refuting the Critics is carefully researched and thoroughly documented. Well over two hundred sources are cited, including scores of scholarly works by recognized LDS and non-LDS experts in such fields as Near Eastern and Mesoamerican archaeology, biblical studies, early Christian history, and ancient languages. Yet, for all of the impressive evidence presented herein, the author is careful to point out that the most powerful confirmation of the Book of Mormon comes from the Holy Ghost. Easy to understand yet abundantly documented, this book strengthens faith in the Book of Mormon and will be a valuable missionary tool.
