[edit] Editorial changes

The changes from the version printed in the Times and Seasons were made in 1851 and 1902 according to the article Articles of Faith, and I included those figures in the present article. But the quote from JF Smith indicates the changes were made in 1921. Can another editor resolve this discrepency? --Blainster 20:29, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

The correct dates are 1851 and 1902, corresponding to publication dates of editions of the Pearl of Great Price. The Tanners have scanned these PGP editions, and they indeed show the changes. I haven't checked the Joseph Fielding Smith cite, but if he actually said 1921, he's wrong. Also, he's wrong that the Articles of Faith was part of the Doctrine and Covenants.

Thanks. I didn't see the JF Smith quote on AoF being in D&C but he must have meant the Lectures on Faith, which was part of the earlier D&C editions rather than Articles of Faith. --Blainster 11:56, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
