Eyewitnesses do not agree on how Joseph Smith accomplished the task of translating the Book of Mormon. Using witnesses' statements, the original manuscript, the printer's manuscript, and the text itself, Skousen determined that 'Joseph Smith could actually see (whether in the interpreters themselves or in his mind's eye) the translated English text--word for word and letter for letter--and that he read off this revealed text to his scribe.' Furthermore, this evidence suggests 'that Joseph was not the author of the Book of Mormon, not even its English language translation, although it was revealed spiritually through him and in his own language.'
