0 What The Mormon Scriptures says about And it came to pass
home

I told the brethren that the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book. Joseph Smith, History of the Church, 4:461

What The Mormon Scriptures say about ...

And-it-came-to-pass

The author of the Book of Mormon tried hard to make it sound like the King James Bible. Way too hard, in fact. Here's what Mark Twain said about it:

Wherever he found his speech growing too modern -- which was about every sentence or two -- he ladled in a few such Scriptural phrases as "exceeding sore," "and it came to pass," etc., and made things satisfactory again. 'And it came to pass' was his pet. If he had left that out, his Bible would have been only a pamphlet.

From Chapter 16, Roughing It

And it came to pass ...
