Just think which will be the only scripture which can be brought back how it was word by word as it was revealed at their respective times?
I'd say the Book of Mormon - there are still first edition copies around today so people know exactly how this text started out.
I said which scripture can come back word by word or letter by letter the same way how it is available today if it is disappeared from this Earth.
Consider this example about the author of Harry Potter series,J.K Rowling.
Even she cannot bring the book back word by word or letter by letter.
If it just disappeared from this Earth.She may write the same story again but definetly the Text will not be accurate and precise and same exact way as to how it is today.
Copy of Book of Mormon Is Auctioned for $105,000
Quote:...and amid the attic clutter, at the bottom of a box of books, was the treasure: a 177-year-old first-edition copy of the Book of Mormon.
At an auction held yesterday in nearby Geneva, an undisclosed bidder from the East Coast paid $105,600, including the auctioneer’s commission, for the book, which is considered sacred by Mormons. There were originally 5,000 first-edition copies of the Book of Mormon, and some collectors estimate that fewer than 500 may remain today.
It's a sacred text for Mormons who believe Joseph's Smith's story about the angel Moroni showing him where the golden plates were buried. This is no different to people believing that the Bible and the Quran were revealed. Nobody has found a first edition copy of the Quran, though.
There are no editions of Quran..it's one as the same and will remain the same forever....It has no versions.It's preserved in its pure form.
Quran was not revealed to Prophet in a Book format.It was recited to him.It was also not revealed all at once.It was revealed in a period of about 23 years in the Islamic month of Ramadan.
