We ask for your patience during this transition. Over the coming weeks, all pages of bookofmormoncentral.org will be redirected to their corresponding page on scripturecentral.org, resulting in minimal disruption.

JWHA 2016 Annual Conference - Kirtland, Ohio "Ye Should Go to the Ohio and from Thence Among All Nations September 22-25, 2016, in Kirtland, Ohio

One of the presenters will be Matt Roper from BYU’s Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship. Roper will be discussing exciting new computerized statistical technology that allows accurate author identification with sample blocks as small as 2,000 words. Previous techniques have required 5,000 word blocks. This improved technology means more Book of Mormon authors have now been analyzed stylistically and shown to have distinct and statistically identifiable wordprints.
