Question: Does the Book of Mormon phrase "curious workmanship" originate from Gilbert Hunt's The Late War?
Critics' comparison: It is claimed that both books mention objects of “curious workmanship”
- Book of Mormon, Ether 10:27: And ... weapons of war ... of exceedingly curious workmanship
- The Late War 19:13: And ... weapons of war were of curious workmanship[1]
Full context comparison: "curious workmanship"
27 And they did make all manner of weapons of war. And they did work all manner of work of exceedingly curious workmanship.
The Late War Chapter 19 (p. 67):
13 And their weapons of war were of curious workmanship, and they sent forth balls of lead; such as were unknown to Pharaoh when he followed the Children of Israel down into the red sea.
