The Book of Mormon was written by many different authors across hundreds of years.  Not surprisingly, within the text the authors have unique voices, phrases, and usage consistent with themselves but independent from all others.

Professor John Hilton III helps break down the intratextuality and intertextuality of ancient Book of Mormon authors.  Using an incredible program called Wordcruncher, the data helps us understand words like resurrection, baptism and Gentiles.

Find out how Christ consistently speaks throughout the Book of Mormon.  Find out how Jacob's writings likely influenced later speakers like King Benjamin and Mormon.
