This book has all the missing or misinterpreted parts of the Bible that were lost through translation processes. It was such a big help to use this book in order to understand verses and passages that were previously difficult to decipher. Truth is wonderful!

I purchased this from a church book store. It is wonderful!!
It gives the entire translation that Joseph did. As you may know Joseph did not correct all the things in the Bible, just what the Lord directed him to. As you also may know the RLDS church has the copyright to this book and the only way that we were able to obtain what little of the Bible translation that we have (That is in our scriptures) is due to one or our church officers being friendly with the RLDS. And many years ago they allowed him to "hand copy" passages that he was inspired to copy, that now appear in our scriptures. There are a few different versions of this book, but this is the easiest to read and the most inexpensive.
The RLDS church has taken great care of the translation that Joseph made. Bruce R McConkie said "The Joseph Smith Translation, or Inspired Version, is a thousand times over the best Bible now existing on earth."
We read the Bible and have this open right along side of it.
