    As cheesy as it seems today, I really miss these kinds of videos - laying out the content and context in a fun and imaginative way. I would LOVE to get my hands on a gigantic Book of Mormon and oversized set of plates. I'm not sure where I'd store them... Thanks so much for posting this old gem.

      I've been to shops in Utah that sell reproductions for a hearty sum. It's out there.

    8:20 To clarify, Mormon actually abridged his own record, in addition to the books of Lehi, and Mosiah through 4 Nephi, just before his death at the hands of the Lamanites. After that, Moroni added the last two chapters to his father's book.

    Most of these videos were done in 1993, so was that a good year for Mormons?

      These were made as a teaching tool for seminaries, which is place where the young men and women who belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and anyone else who is interested, go to learn more about the scriptures, Christ and His gospel. As far as I know, there wasn't such a thing done before. At least my parents don't have any memories of movies in seminary when they were teenagers :)

      I went to seminary in the late 80s and saw various videos. The Hold to the Rod Series and a Lamp Unto My Feet

    Does anybody else realize how ridiculous this narrative is?

      I think I probably regret saying what I said there. It sounds patronising and arrogant and for that I apologise.
      I am a practicing Buddhist and have been for 10 years so really I should know better.
      I did encounter the "Mormon" religion when I was younger but just couldn't believe it.
      So that's my journey. If your journey is within this church and you are happy and fulfilled there then I wish you well. 🙏
