Difference between revisions of "Gold Plates"

The [[Gold Plates]] or ''Golden Plates'' (also referred to derisively as the ''[[Golden Bible]]'') are the material upon which the ancient American prophet [[Mormon]] wrote his abridgment of the record of his people. Mormon's son, [[Moroni]] buried the Gold Plates in the soil of [[Hill Cumorah]], where they were found by [[Joseph Smith]], who learned of their location by revelation and as instructed by the [[Angel Moroni]]. The Gold Plates were then translated by Joseph Smith from the original [[reformed Egyptian]] texts, and then published into the scriptures we have today known as the [[Book of Mormon]].
