Eyewitness accounts associated with the Joseph Smith Papyri

Certificate from Michael Chandler, 6 July 1835, Page 72
[Research Note: Michael H. Chandler's
Certificate, stating: "This is to make known
to all who may be desirous, concerning the
knowledge of Mr. Joseph Smith, jr, in
deciphering the ancient Egyptian hierogliphic
(sic / hieroglyphic) characters, in my
possession, which I have, in many eminent cities,
shown to the most learned: And,
from the information that I could ever learn, or
meet with, I find that of Mr. Joseph
Smith, jr to correspond in the most minute
matters." This is a complete contradiction
of the
Joseph Smith Papyri
statement that "The consensus among both Mormon and
non-Mormon scholars is that the characters on the
surviving papyrus fragments do
not match Smith's translation." It is reminiscent
of the warning given by the Lord,
concerning the
Lost Manuscript of the Book of Mormon,
that "forbade Joseph from
retranslating the book of Lehi and warned him of
adversaries possessing the lost
manuscript who might attempt to manipulate the
text (if retranslated) and then
discredit the published version of the Book of
Mormon." In other words, Egyptian
scholars have "translated"
inconsistent gibberish
for ancient records, placing them
out of sync in both time frames and social
relationships. This
discredits
themselves.
So, the explanation of facsimile #3 from the Book
of Abraham, shows Olimlah, a
(black) slave belonging to the prince; along with
Abraham; the kind King Pharaoh;
the Prince of Pharaoh, King of Egypt; one of the
king's principal waiters; Abraham
reasoning upon the principles of Astronomy, in
the king's court. Astounding in fact,
that the highly intellectual concepts of the
heavens would be shared within such a
very personal, cosmopolitan setting. This is
gibberish distorted completely as slave
Olimlah becomes Anubis; with words spoken by
Anubis who makes protection Lord
of heaven, Foremost of the Westerners. That a
slave would converse is most absurd;
whose lowly nakedness is shown by an apron
covering only the front of the body.]

Egyptian Papers [Research Note: "The papers have been a source
of controversy, because the translations and interpretations within are
not
considered accurate by
Egyptologists
(those studying the field of Egyptology), and
have thus stoked questions of whether the Book of Abraham is a literal
translation
of the Joseph Smith Papyri. Some apologists of The Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-
day Saints (LDS Church} have (incorrectly) postulated that many of the
papers may
have been produced by Smith's scribes without his involvement, and that
they may
have been intended as a speculative or naturalistic effort rather than a
product of
revelation." This is completely refuted by
Document Transcript:
Discourse, 7 April 1844,
as Reported by Wilford Woodruff, Page 133. Known as the
King Follett Discourse.
This
Discourse has a specific section concerning
The Character of God; with a
total of (10)
references to His immortal Character; expounded upon in the Grammar and
Alphabet
of the Egyptian Language; and the central theme from which all the other
characters
are meaningfully identified; His Eternal Body containing a centralized
fullness of Joy.
The controversy felt by some Egyptologists and scholarly specialists
comes from not
considering the two-fold traditions of the Egyptians; one handed down
through writings
of inspired prophets, as established within the Grammar and Alphabet; and
spurious
records handed down through Pharaoh, the eldest son of Egyptus, the
daughter of Ham;
he who sought "earnestly to imitate that order established by the fathers
in the first
generations"; as subsequent Pharaohs did claim the right of Priesthood
from Noah;
as Abraham explains in his record, his own father being led away by their
idolatry.
Both record sources, however, center on the clear merits of religious
government.
Indeed, the whole key of understanding is the central theme of the effort
to construct
the Grammar and Alphabet as it centers in the fact that God himself,
finding he was
in the midst of spirits and glory, because he was more intelligent, saw
proper to
institute laws whereby the rest could have a privilege to advance like
himself. Thus,
the very fabric of the Egyptian Grammar and Alphabet is to create a
language record
that transmitted the glory of god to weaker intelligences, for their own
magnification.
And since the greatest Joy of Eternity was to have an immortal, body and
its spirit,
the language conveyed, would ultimately rest upon the body, parts and
passions
of Ahman and Son Ahman, as revealed to mortals by the Holy Ghost; the
Godhead.
This begins with the understanding that the human body is noted as a
Temple of God.
Thus again, Abraham had his servant
Eliezer put
his hand under the Patriarch's
Thigh,
to swear "by the Lord, the God of heaven and earth"; also, Abraham was
circumcised,
to remember daily, in bodily functions, that all truth is circumscribed
in one great whole.
And Four cubits: (that is from <the length> the end of the longest finger
to the end of the
other when the arms are extended: making in our measure{ment} seven feet,
which is
twenty=one inches to a cubit.); it would relate back to the body of Adam,
the First King;
and carry on down through the Patriarchal Order. through the Fathers; the
Patriarchs.
And the straight mark over or under a character, is identified as Zip Zi; i.e., all women,
it took its origin from the earth yielding its fruit. And located at the
navel; the first woman
who bore children (Eve, the Mother of All Living); men were
multiplied upon the earth;
all above the navel, signifies above, more, greater,
more glorious, the heart and mind;
and beneath the naval signifies beneath less smaller least; pelvic area,
legs and feet.]

Mormon Studies
[Research Notes from King Follett Discourse: When we understand the
character of God
and how to come to him, he begins to unfold the heavens to us, and to
tell us all about it.
When we are ready to come to him, he is ready to come to us.. . . All
things whatsoever
God in his infinite wisdom has seen fit and proper to reveal to us, while
we are dwelling
in mortality, in regard to our mortal bodies, are revealed to us in the
abstract, and (are)
independent of (any) affinity of this mortal tabernacle, but are revealed
to our spirits (by
the power of the Holy Ghost) precisely as though we had no (physical)
bodies at all, and
those revelations which will save our spirits will save our (temporal)
bodies. God reveals
them to us in view of no eternal dissolution of the (physical, mortal)
body or tabernacle.
This is fully confirmed by
Chapter 12: Doctrine and Covenants 29: . . . "Wherefore, verily I
say unto you that all things unto me are spiritual, and not at any time
have I given unto
you a law which was temporal; neither any man, nor the children of men;
neither Adam,
your father, whom I created." Adam is noted as patriarchal "father" of
Joseph Smith, Jr.;
indicating the eternal, infinite multi-generational authority of the
Patriarchal Priesthood,]

Transcript, notes: "A Conversation with
Dallin H. Oaks
and
Richard E. Turley Jr.".
Mention is made that: "for historians and other scholars seeking to make

cultural contexts

opines: "We came to recognize that probably the most difficult of our
church presidents
to tie down in terms of sources and original materials was Joseph Smith
because he
died before we had stenographers who were taking down his talks verbatim.
Thus,
"stenographers" is the grand key word, in comprehending the Grammar and
Alphabet
of the Egyptian Language; by
pondering, meditating, studying, and word reflecting.
Stenography: Where It Started and Where It Is Today | U.S. Legal Support
states:
"The most basic, ancient form of stenography began in 450 BC. But back
then, it
had another name: cuneiform. This was similar to "caveman" writing,
almost like
the Egyptians' hieroglyphics. Different from the English language that
assigns words
with letters and gives each letter an individual sound, cuneiform grouped
sounds
together and assigned them to symbols. The symbols were then assigned a
picture,
and this shorter, graphic-telling communication was not only
understandable and
easy to teach, but timely and efficient. Several centuries later, China
reinvented
cuneiform and turned it into what we now call
Shorthand. The Egyptian form of
shorthand was called
Hieratic script | Definition, Hieroglyphics, &
History | Britannica.
Thoth was the Egyptian god of the moon, of reckoning, (i.e., of
historical reflective
learning, or record keeping, as the moon reflects to the earth the Glory
of the Sun),
and of writing. Thoth was the creator of languages, the scribe, (aided by
the goddess
Seshat); interpreter, and adviser of the gods, and the representative of
the sun God Re.
Therefore, the Grammar and Alphabet of the Egyptian Language, is
comprehended.
when properly understood within the framework of modern day shorthand
dictation.
Comparison of Characters, in conjunction with the
Document Transcript, does identify
examples of the shorthand methodology. Characters were independent and
arbitrary,
without a straight (horizontal) mark inserted above or below it. Thus, by
inserting the
straight mark over a character, it increases its signification five
degrees: by inserting
two straight lines, its signification is increased five times more. And
by inserting three
straight lines, its signification is again increased five times more than
the last. There
are five connecting parts of speech, for verbs, participles,
prepositions, conjunctions
and adverbs. Translating any character, its subject must be continued
until there are
as many of these connecting parts found in the character. . . . The
character alone
has 5 parts of speech; and increase by 3 horizontal lines, it becomes 125
x 5 = 625.
Additionally, numerical correlation is made with Beth= <Be=eth>. This
character is
found in the first degree. It has an arbitrary sound or signification
which is Beth;
and also a compound sound which is Za, and comprises one simple sentence
for its
signification. It is only increased or lessened in its signification by
its connection
with other characters. One connection with another character, gives it a
compound
signification, or enlarges the sentence: Two connections increases its
signification
still; Three increases it still: Four increases still; and five still.
This is as far as one
sentence can be carried in the first degree. In its arbitrary sound it
may have more
sounds than one, but can not have more than five sounds (which apparently
are
related to vowels, a, e, i, o, and u). When compounded with others, only
one sound.
Egyptian Alphabet, circa Early July–circa November 1835–C, Page 1 Some
examples:
From Second part of the first degree, starting with Albeth, and
progressing through:
Al / ka / beth; Al / che / beth; Al / chi / beth; Al / ko / beth;
Al / ku / beth; It is noted:
Albeth is inserted with ka, che, chi, ko, and ku, within the word Albeth.
So, Albeth independently has two designations, or meanings:
First, that of disembodied spirits or Saints.
Second, that of Angels in an unalterable state.
The insertion of ka presents the dual concepts of:
men after they are raised from the dead; or, Ministers of God.
The insertion of che presents the dual concepts of: high priests; or,
Kings.
The insertion of chi presents the combined dual concepts of:
Ministers of God; or, under, or less than high priests.
The insertion of ko presents the combined dual concepts of:
Ministers not ordained of God; or, sinful.
The insertion of ku presents the combined dual concepts of:
Ministers who are less sinful for want of power
Then, as a second witness or written testimony, the same similar process
continues
with Ba=eth, independently, as: The name of all Mankind---man or men.
Followed by:
Document Transcript:
Ba-eth; Ba=eth=ka; Ba-eth kee; Ba-eth ki; Ba-eth ko; Baeth ku;
or, Adam or the first man, or first King; The next from Adam, one
ordained under him;
The third ordained under Adam; The fourth from Adam; The fifth high
priest from Adam.
The concept of independent characters, having two designations, or
meanings, appears,
in conjunction with additional combined dual concepts or meanings; to
scope the word
definitions in form and manner, so that definitional concepts are
applicable to mankind
in life or death, from a pre earth life, unto ultimate exaltation in the
highest glory degree
of the Celestial Realms of God, and all attached glorified creations; to
the depths of Hell.
Significantly, the straight mark over or under a character, is identified
as Zip Zi; i.e.,
all women: it took its origin from the earth yielding its fruit. And from
the first woman
who bore children (Eve, the Mother of All Living); and men were
multiplied upon
the earth; used as a numeral by being inserted above or below another
character:
it increases by being drawn above, and signifies above, more, greater,
more glorious,
and when inserted under signifies beneath less smaller least. (Temple
Endowed; such
as Phah ho e oop = extension of power by marriage or by ordination, or
anointing).
It is self evident the Grammar and Alphabet was spoken and hand / body
expressed;
particularly memorized, conveyed using jointed fingers and thumb; feet
and toes,
And the pupil of the eye, the black hole in the middle of the iris; it is
represented
by Iota: the eye or to see or sight sometimes me myself; The eye, or to
see, or sight,
sometimes me, myself; Eye=to see=sight, sometimes Me, myself; see, saw,
seeing
or having seen; See, saw, seeing, or having seen or having been seen; me
myself;
adds that having been within= in the earth, includes To be with, as light
is in the earth,
and showing the denomination of languages and through what descent they
continue.
Iota nitahveh ah-que= its signification is increased from the first
degree five times; for
instance I saw five times twenty-five persons, or one hundred and
twenty-five persons:
Its signification may be lessened one half by the mark as in the margin--
and again
lessened one half of the latter half the mark as in the margin;
signification is increased
tenfold by the mark as in the margin: Its signification is again
increased one hundred
fold by the additional mark in the margin: and its signification is a
multiplying adjective.
Locations in astronomical starting points: locate the Celestial residence
of Kolob, using
the numerical multiplication of 5, going from Beth, man's first
residence, graduating up
by 5 times to the whole Earth, (for the act of going up to going up,
climbing, ascending
towards the sun), to Eternity, as the place of happiness where God the
Father resides,
Decoding the Star Charts of Ancient Egypt,
(published by) Scientific American,
requires
understanding of the fact that the planet Earth is transforming through
various cycles in
the planning; birth, or creation; youthful vigor; cleansing, baptizing by
water;
switching,
or modifying over time, from a Telestial, to a Terrestrial, to an
ultimate Celestial Sphere.
The transition from a Telestial to a Terrestrial state, for example, is
predicted to include
the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall be turned into blood, and
the stars shall
fall from heaven; and there shall be great signs in the heavens above,
and in the earth
beneath; and there shall be weeping and wailing among the inhabitants of
the earth;
and there shall be a great hailstorm sent froth to destroy the crops of
the earth;" (that
which indicates tremendous and immediate climate changes with great cold
and heat).
Revelations printed in The Evening and the Morning
Star, June 1832–June 1833, Page 2
And all this interconnected with the governing planets or stars of the
vast Universe; or,
in other words, the governing power, which governs fifteen other fixed
planets or stars.
