Jewish convert discusses Book of Mormon
 
http://lds.net/blog/faith/jew-reads-...%20of%20Mormon

I don't know if this is true/accurate, but if it is, it sounds interesting. Jewishness of the BoM.

Yeah, I think that's been pretty established. There are far more examples than she mentioned.

Gadianton in the original manuscript had a double "D." And gdd in Hebrew means organized robber.

When John Tvetdnes presented on Hebrew names in the BOM to the World Congress of Jewish studies, he got a warm reception and the audience even gave him more suggestions.

What's missing is any evidence in the New World.
