Were the ancient Egyptian papyri found at the Metropolitan Museum pieces of the actual scroll from which Mormon (aka LDS) founder Joseph Smith produced a lost book of Abraham? Two top Egyptologists examine the papyri and give their verdict.

Dr. Robert Ritner, associate professor of Egyptology at the University of Chicago was commissioned to do a complete translation of the scroll Joseph Smith identified as a lost book of Abraham. He explains what he found.

  • if only it were that simple....if only.

  • The Abraham Papyrus is an absurd fraud and easily disproved. An embarrassment to the Hierarchy . This joke is what Joe conjured up out of his perception of Real Egyptian. He was wrong 100% of the time! Statistically significant but in the wrong direction. So, how much error is there in the Book of Mormon, translated from non existent "reformed" Egyptian for which not a scintilla of evidence exists. And translated with the plates outside and his head in his hat with his pet rock!?

  • it doesnt take that much time and energy to KNOW  smith and mormoms are full of sh.t,,,SORRY LOLOLOLOL

  • Great video. Joseph Smith was a very cunning liar, and created quite a Satanic Trap with his Book of Mormon. By the time he was writing the Pearl of Great Price and Doctrine and Covenants though, he seems to have been totally done even trying to remain in a semi Biblical realm. The D&C looks to me like a book of Joseph playing God, and trying to tell everyone they had better do what Joseph wants because "God" said so.

  • Hey, Genius. There are hieroglyphs embedded in the pictures themselves. The most obvious (and simple) example is the Eye of Horus. There are seven hieroglyps which make up the Eye of Horus. These hieroglyphs spell 'to make or do' or 'one who does.' This technique has been used in Arabic, Chinese Han Zi, and Japanese Kanji for thousands of years. I'm sure you already knew that, didn't you, Professor Knowitall?

  • Yeah, how about that adam and eve were in the USA (joseph smith's) and what about poor old "shek" some dumb old dead indian, that JS lied about, also!

  • Almost 90 percent of these scrolls are gone in the fire. How could you pretend to understand the entirety with a tiny peaces of cloth. No egyptologist would make a scolarly overview with so little evidence. I found out these experts are members of your church. Oh now I get it!!!

  • No mormon will quit his church over this deception. It is well known that "non mormon" egyptologists reveal abraham written directly on the facsimile. Real Egypologists declare that the figure on the couch is (alive, not a dead mummy.) His legs are raising in the air for pete sake! His arms are animated. No real egyptologist would be so stupid as to not know this scolarly fact as you pretend in your video.

  • You have deceived people. No egyptologist would sign onto saying this had nothing to do with abraham when real egyptologists have published that same lion couch depiction on facsimile 1,yes, with abrahams name in arabic written under neath it. This is published and known world wide. You hope people are stupid obviously by omiting these facts.Shame on you.

  • I posted "Joseph Smith Should Have Known Better", showing Champollion was well known in 1833 I use Josiah Priest, "American Antiquities......."
