Issue
Critics have often complained about the frequent repetition of "and it came to pass" in the Book of Mormon.[1] Mark Twain famously joked that if the phrase were omitted, Joseph would have published a pamphlet instead of a book.[2]
As it turns out, however, this much-maligned phrase is actually evidence of the Book of Mormon's authentic antiquity.
