(Joseph) while he was translating he stopped suddenly, pale as a sheet, and said, ‘Emma, did Jerusalem have walls around it?’ When I answered, ‘Yes,’ he replied, ‘Oh! [I didn’t know.] I was afraid I had been deceived.’ He had such a limited knowledge of history at that time that he did not even know that Jerusalem was surrounded by walls” (Edmund C. Briggs, “A Visit to Nauvoo in 1856,” Journal of History, Jan. 1916, p. 454).
Why would this be a surprise to Joseph? I found it quoted over 20 times in the KJV Bible. Emma was either stupid..or in on the entire ruse!!
This is a follow up from the fake picture that LDS church wants you to believe was how the BOM was translated.
