Book Reviews of The Book of Mormon for Latter-Day Saint Families
Book Review: So, what is doctrine and what isn't?
Summary: 3 Stars
This review is written from the LDS point of view. If you aren't LDS, you probably aren't buying a $50 Book of Mormon when you can get a free copy from the local missionaries. (Just saying). The stars it got were based on the quality of the materials, and the fact that the Book of Mormon is a useful religious text. The lack of stars is based on the fact that I think this book would stunt rather than increase religious understanding.
The problem with these books is that they put so much random, non-doctrinal, and sometimes scientifically doubtful explanations right alongside scripture. There is enough of a rough time figuring out whether in an interpretation of the Book of Mormon is doctrine without people writing the their own (non-doctrinal) interpretations in something called the Book of Mormon. It could lead to serious confusion on what is sound doctrine and what is made up by some guy who thinks he knows. If you are having trouble reading the Book of Mormon, get a dictionary. It will leave you more open to what things can mean.
Many of the explanations of meanings are very one dimensional, and suit the local purposes of the authors, but these explanations tend to limit what a passage can mean. Books like this tend to limit your view of what happened.
If you are buying this book to make others think you are righteous, knock yourself out. It is big, has gold letters, and is nicely bound. It is a very nice looking book, and will look great on your not-coffee table.
