FAIR
Chariots
FAIR Latter-day Saints
If you picture Ben-Hur, the Book of Mormon will look silly. If you picture a royal conveyance in a translation using King James military vocabulary, the problem shrinks. Wheels as toys show the idea was not unthinkable. Terrain, draft animals, and elite display all matter. This is a real research question. It is not a closed tomb.
One royal chariot scene is not a highway system. Stop putting asphalt under Alma.
- Chariots cluster with kings, not with every farmer.
- KJV ‘chariot’ can render more than one kind of vehicle in Hebrew.
- Absence of widespread wagon ruts is not the same as ‘Joseph invented the wheel in Mexico.’
