pt 10 Hebrew poetry in The Book of Mormon (full-length)

The following is a clip in it's entirety in FAIRs response to the anti-Mormon video "The Bible vs. The Book of Mormon". Shorter clips have been previously posted on the FAIR Youtube site.
In this clip, scholars discuss various types of ancient Hebrew poetry and writing styles found in The Book of Mormon. This shows The Book of Mormon to be written by an Israelite who lived in ancient times.

Salomon Spalding had a M.A. in Divinity from Dartmouth...

I expect he would have known at least a lot of Hebrew, and been familiar with the Old Testament stylistic forms.

Most people wouldn't be surprised to learn Hugh Nibley was an extraordinary scholar, even at an early age. But some might be surprised, and amused, to learn what daughter Zina Nibley Petersen said he didn't know.

Once again... the ones who NEED to be watching this will "troll around" and leave crappy comments in their ignorance. I find the Book of Mormon to have been written beautifully in its awkward english!

The Non LDS christians are so astonished by all the information available through FAIR.
