General Isaiah Issues
- The Dating of Isaiah and the Book of Mormon: Most modern scholars, including many LDS scholars, recognize that the Book of Isaiah was actually composed by more than one author, with much of the text of Isaiah being authored after the exile of Israel. Some, but not all, of the text of Isaiah found in the Book of Mormon is from those parts of Isaiah which are considered to have been authored after the exile, which took place after Lehi left Jerusalem with the brass plates. This presents an interesting challenge to the Book of Mormon if some of the quotations of Isaiah in the Book of Mormon were not actually written by "Isaiah" until after Lehi left Jerusalem. In other words, Nephi is quoting from Isaiah passages which may have not yet been written. Some LDS scholars deny that Isaiah was written by multiple authors, some after Lehi left Jerusalem. They look for evidence of the unity of Isaiah. Other LDS scholars agree that Isaiah was written by multiple scholars and have suggested reasonable solutions to the issue.
