Description

The Book of Abraham remains one of the most contested texts in Latter-day Saint scripture. In this session, Bill Reel will critically examine both the Catalyst Theory and the Missing Scroll Theory—the two primary explanations advanced by apologists to reconcile the translation claims. Drawing on recent historical, linguistic, and textual research, we’ll explore why these models are increasingly viewed as untenable, even by sympathetic scholars. Rather than resolving the tension, this evidence deepens it. For those willing to confront the data, this session offers a candid look at whether any viable path remains for defending the Book of Abraham as revealed scripture.
