The Joseph Smith Translation JST, also called the Inspired Version IV, was a revision of the Bible by Joseph Smith, the founder of the Latter Day Saint movement. Smith considered this work to be quot;a branch of his callingquot; as a prophet. Smith was murdered before he ever deemed it complete, though most of his work on it was performed about a decade previous. The work is the King James Version of the Bible KJV with some significant additions and revisions. It is considered a sacred text and is part of the canon of Community of Christ CoC, formerly the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and other Latter Day Saint churches. Selections from the Joseph Smith Translation are also included in the footnotes and the appendix in the LDSpublished King James Version of the Bible, but The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints LDS Church has only officially canonized certain excerpts that appear in its Pearl of Great Price. These excerpts are the Book of Moses and Smith39;s revision of part of the Gospel of Matthew.
The work of revision
The Translation was intended to restore what Smith described as many important points touching the salvation of men, that had been taken from the Bible, or lost before it was compiled. But the work was not a literal translation from ancient documents, as the term translation is commonly used today. Neither was it an automatic and infallible process where quot;correctquot; words and phrases simply were revealed to Smith in final form. As with Joseph Smith39;s other translations, he reported that he was forced to quot;study it out in his mindquot; as part of the revelatory process. Sometimes Smith might revisit a given passage of scripture at a later time to give it a quot;plainer translation,quot; because of additional knowledge or revelation about a subject.
