APPENDIX A
UNDERSTANDING BOOK OF MORMON CHRONOLOGY
Affixing calendar dates to the events in the Book of Mormon and putting those dates in chronological order
is an extremely complex process, but I believe that the process has merit. It stands to reason that if we don't
illuminate the circumstances surrounding the gospel message of the Book of Mormon, we don't give ourselves any
perspective from which to ask questions. And if we don't ask any questions, we can't expect any answers.
Hopefully, by constructing a much more detailed chronology than is presently footnoted in our recent editions of the
Book of Mormon, we can produce a much more detailed set of questions relative to the cultural setting of the book.
STEP #1: CLARIFYING THE PROBLEMS
In trying to understand Book of Mormon chronology, one has to come to terms with a number of factors
which might create differences in interpretation:
1. Common Reference Points
One must compare our written history of the world and the history contained in the Book of Mormon and be
able to come up with at least some correlation of events in order to have a reference point in time. In the Book of
Mormon history we have the following possible reference points:
a. The commencement of the reign of Zedekiah. (1 Nephi 1:4)
b. The destruction of Jerusalem. (1 Nephi 1:4; 2 Nephi 1:4)
c. The birth [or sign of the birth] of Christ. (3 Nephi 4-26)
d. The death of Christ. (3 Nephi 8:5)
e. Volcanic eruptions and destruction in the Americas. (3 Nephi 8:5-25, 9:1-12)
f. The appearance of Christ (Quetzalcoatl) in the Americas. (3 Nephi 11:1-11)
There is scholarly debate about each of these reference dates; however, there are limits to the range of
years in the debate.
2. The Length and Type of Calendar Year
a. Calendars vary in length depending on their purpose:
1. Some chart the days from a specific event. (Mayan Long Count Calendar)
2. Some are religious and relate to cycles of the Moon. (354.36705 day Lunar Calendar)
3. Some are agricultural and relate to cycles of the Sun. (365.2422 day Solar Calendar)
4. Some just have a set number of days. (360 day Egyptian Year Calendar)
Because in the Book of Mormon text the length of a "year" is not stated precisely, one is left to his own
assumptions.
b. In our present Book of Mormon we have 3 different calendar systems that chart the years from a specific
event:
1. Years from when Lehi left Jerusalem. (1 Nephi 1:10; 2 Nephi 5:28)
2. Years from the beginning of the Reign of the Judges. (Alma 1:1)
3. Years from the sign of Christ's birth. (3 Nephi 2:8)
As an approximate standard of reference, chronological footnotes to the Book of Mormon text carry dates
according to the B.C/A.D (Dionysian) Calendar.
3. Beginning Day of the Calendar Year (Point of Reference)
a. For any calendar system, there has to be a starting day for each "year" in that system. Thus for the
Book of Mormon text:
1. Lehi left Jerusalem on a specific day within a specific year. Nephi uses that "specific day" and/or
"specific year" as the beginning reference point for his calendar (Years from when Lehi left Jerusalem).
2. The reign of the Judges started on a specific day within an existing year, and the new calendar
proceeded forward from that day. Whether or not it required a changed "day 1" and/or a changed "month 1"
of the new calendar year is not specifically noted in the text.
3. Christ was born on a specific day within an existing year, and the new calendar proceeded
forward from that day. Whether or not it required a changed "day 1" and/or a new "month 1" and/or a new
"calendar year length" is not specifically noted in the text.
b. Our present-day Gregorian/Julian calendari begins on the 1st day of the 1st month of January and ends
on the 31st day of the 12th month of December.
c. The Israelites used two calendar systems, one beginning in the fall and one beginning in the spring. Their
calendar originally began in the fall; however, after the Lord took the children of Israel out of Egypt, a change was
made in their reckoning of years so that the first month was in the spring (see Exodus 12:2, 13:3-4). Thus, Book of
Mormon phrases like "the end of year one" and "the beginning of year two" could actually fall within the same year
within our present day calendar system because the "end" and the "beginning" would both be either in the fall or the
spring of our January-December years.
4. B.C./A.D. Calendar
B.C. = Before Christ in the Western Calendar.
B.C.E. = Before the Common (Christian) Era
A.D. = Anno Domini, which means "in the year of the Lord"
The B.C/A.D (Dionysian) Calendar was originally designed with 365-day, 12-month (Jan-Dec) years moving
in both directions from a central division point exactly between 1 B.C. (1 year Before Christ) and A.D. 1 (Anno Domini-in the year of our Lord). There was no "0" year. Scholars and students find value in this system not because it is
necessarily correct, but because it has become an accepted standard of reference. In other words, by using this
system one can postulate, for example, that "Christ was born in 5 B.C.," even though that specific date for the birth of
Christ is contrary to how the B.C./A.D. system was set up originally.
Note* Because confusion can arise when writers with different chronological theories use different
B.C./A.D. dates relative to the same Book of Mormon events, it is the opinion of the author that dates referred to in
written articles and charts should be referenced, as much as possible, to at least one of the three calendar systems
actually referred to in the text of the Book of Mormon and not just to the chronological footnotes listed at the bottom
of the page.
5. Ambiguous Phrases
There are certain ambiguous phrases that are repeated by the Nephite record keepers when referring to
time such as, "about," ". . . years had passed away," "in the latter end of the year," "in the year," "thus ended the
year," etc. It becomes very difficult to communicate detailed chronology unless these phrases are defined..
6. Multiple Interpretations
There are many verses regarding chronology and time in the Book of Mormon that are subject to
interpretation. The possible variations on these verses can at times make the task of chronology seem rather
formidable; however, it is the opinion of the author that we can at least do two things: (1) Make a complete list as
many of the verses relating to chronology as possible; and then (2) Record the varying interpretations.
7. Lack of Internal Chronological References
The Book of Mormon is not a true history. In the Book of Alma we have approximately seventy verses that
refer to the calendar spanning a period of one hundred and sixty-five years. On the other hand, from the beginning
of the book of First Nephi to the beginning of the book of Alma, there are only sixteen calendar-related verses that
span a period of five hundred and nine years. With these voids in the record, we must piece together the story as
best we can.
8. Priority of Facts
History can be very difficult to explain at times. When faced with a choice between scriptural sources and
secular sources, a decision has to be made as to what to believe. My desired focus is the illumination and
interpretation of scriptural sources. To that end, I consider historical secular sources as scholarly aids to
understanding and not an "end all" proof that terminates discussion. To give an example of this manner of thinking I
cite the words of Randall Spackman:
The question is not whether Lehi's 600-year prophecy was fulfilled. The Book of Mormon records
its fulfillment (see 3 Nephi 1:1-21). The Book of Mormon is true. The question is how Lehi's 600-year
prophecy was fulfilled. [Randall P. Spackman in FARMS Review of Books, Vol. 10/1 1998, p. 10]

STEP #3: THE DEPARTURE DATE FOR LEHI--REVIEWING THE THEORIES
In 1 Nephi 10:4, Nephi records the following prediction made by Lehi: "Yea, even six hundred years
from the time that my father left Jerusalem, a prophet would the Lord God raise up among the Jews--even a
Messiah, or, in other words, a Savior of the world." In order to reconcile the 600 year period alluded to in this
prophecy with other scriptural and secular historical references, the following theories have been proposed:
Theory #1: This theory is presented in the following books:
Book of Mormon (1920-present)
Basic Points of Reference:
Adherence to the Dionysian calendar
Lehi left Jerusalem in the year 600 B.C.
600 B.C. = 1st year of the reign of Zedekiah (1 Nephi 1:4)
Destruction of Jerusalem = 11th year of the Reign of Zedekiah (2 Ki. 25:1,8;
Jer. 52:12) (589
B.C.)
Calendar Year = 365+ days throughout (365.2422 days)
Birth of Christ = April, A.D. 1 (If we assume that the calendar year change in 3 Nephi 2:8 was such that
the year started on the day that Christ was born, or the sign given, then the reference in 3 Nephi
8:5 regarding his death ("in the thirty and fourth year, in the first month, on the fourth day of the
month") correlates with passover and a 365+ day calendar year.
Beginning of the Reign of Judges = April (Passover), 91 B.C. (Alma 1:1; 8:3; 14:23)
Death of Christ = April (Passover), A.D. 34 (3 Nephi 8:5)
Questions: [Refer to "Chronology Chart - Theory #1"]
1. How would you explain 600 B.C. being the 1st year of the reign of Zedekiah (1 Ne 1:4) in view of the
lack of historical evidence?
2. How would you explain an A.D. 1 birthdate of Christ in view of D & C 20, and in view of secular
evidence?
Theory #2: This theory is presented in the following books or articles:
Joseph Allen, Exploring the Lands of the Book of Mormon
John Lefgren, April Sixth
John Pratt, "Another Eclipse For Herod"
Sidney Sperry, Book of Mormon Chronology
Basic Points of Reference:
601 B.C. = 1st year of Babylonian rule with a treaty that guaranteed peace. Thus: 601 B.C. = 1st year
of the reign of "Zedekiah" because the title "Zedekiah" had reference to the beginning of
Babylonian rule (as opposed to Egyptian rule).
Lehi's Departure = April, 601 B.C.
597 B.C. = 1st year of Mattaniah ("Zedekiah")
587 B.C. = Destruction of Jerusalem
Calendar Length = 365+ (Solar) Days throughout (365.2422 days)
April 6, 1 B.C. = Birth of Christ
April 6, 1 B.C. = Birth of Quetzalcoatl
April 6, A.D. 33 = Resurrection of Christ
Questions: [Refer to "Chronology Chart - Theory #2]
1. If Lehi leaves on April 6, 601 B.C., how do you explain the water in the river Laman (1 Ne 2:9) if the
rainy season is December-February?
2. What are the corresponding Jewish calendar days for April 6, 601 B.C.; April 6, 1 B.C.; April 6, A.D. 33,
and April 6, 1830?
3. What about the 360 day year figured into the prophecies of John (Revelations, Genesis, and Daniel)?
4. What about the statements of Church scholars regarding the death of Herod in 4 B.C.?
5. Would the Jews use any other calendar system than the Lunar calendar?
Theory #3: This theory is presented in the following books and articles:
Jay Huber, "Lehi's 600 Year Prophesy and the Birth of Christ"
John W. Welch, "Longevity of Book of Mormon People and the "Age of Man"
Robert F. Smith, "Book of Mormon Event Structure"
Note* Garth Norman also supports a theory similar to this because of the date of 597 B.C. recorded
on an Izapan stela.
Basic Points of Reference:
597 B.C. = 1st Official Year of "Zedekiah"
597 B.C. = Lehi's Departure (November)
586 B.C. = Destruction of Jerusalem
Lehi's Calendar = 360-Day "TUN" year, 360-day Egyptian year, or 360-day prophesy year of
Daniel,
John, and Exodus.
Birth of Christ = 5 B.C. (April)
365+ day Year iniciated after Christ's birth (365.2422 days) (Calendar adjusted A.D. 6)
Christ's death = April, A.D. 29
Questions: [Refer to "Chronology Chart - Theory #3]
1. Why would the Jews seek Lehi's life for prophesying the destruction of Jerusalem if Jerusalem had
already fallen? (1 Nephi 1:18,20) [Possible answer: Lehi prophesied of Christ?--1 Nephi 1:19-20]
2. Why wasn't Laban deported with the 10,000 (2 Kings 24:14) if he was a man of position (1 Ne 3:31)
and if he was wealthy (1 Ne 4:9,20)? [Possible answer: politically linked to Zedekiah?]
3. Why did Laban still have command over 50 men (1 Nephi 3:31) if Jerusalem had already fallen?
[Possible answer: politically linked to Zedekiah?]
4. Why would not Nephi mention the turmoil going on associated with Zedekiah (deportation of 10,000)?
5. Why would Laman and Lemuel think that Lehi was following the "foolish imaginations of his heart" (1
Nephi 2:11) if Jerusalem had already fallen?
6. Why did neither Laman or Lemuel "believe that Jerusalem, that great city, could be destroyed" (1
Nephi 2:13) if it had already fallen?
Theory #4: This theory is presented in the following books and articles:
Randall Spackman, "Lehi's Prophecy of the Messiah's Birth"
Randall Spackman, "Introduction to Book of Mormon Chronology: The Principal Prophecies, Calendars,
and Dates"
Randall Spackman, A review article in FARMS Review of Books, Vol. 10/1 1998, pp. 1-11.
Basic Points of Reference:
597 B.C. = 1st Official Year of "Zedekiah"
The Babylonians imposed a siege on Jerusalem in 588 B.C.
The Babylonians withdrew the siege Jan 7, 587 B.C.
Lehi departed Jan 25, 587 B.C.
Nephi returned for plates (March 1--April 1)
Nephi returned for Ishmael (May 1--June 10)
Babylonians reimposed the siege June 21, 587 B.C.
Destruction of Jerusalem 587 B.C. (2 Nephi 25:9-10 says that there was a "destruction (of Jerusalem)
immediately after Lehi left."
Lehi's calendar = 354.367 Day Lunar Calendar--Non intercalated
Birth of Christ = 5 B.C. (March)
Calendar after sign of Christ = 365 day solar
Calendar change occurred 9 years after the sign
Death of Christ = March, A.D. 29
Questions: [Refer to "Chronology Chart - Theory #4"]
1. Why would the Jews seek Lehi's life for prophesying the destruction of Jerusalem if Jerusalem had
already fallen? (1 Nephi 1:18,20) [Possible answer: Lehi prophesied of Christ?--1 Nephi 1:19-20]
2. Why wasn't Laban deported with the 10,000 (2 Kings 24:14) if he was a man of position (1 Ne 3:31)
and if he was wealthy (1 Ne 4:9,20)? [Possible answer: politically linked to Zedekiah?]
3. Why did Laban still have command over 50 men (1 Nephi 3:31) if Jerusalem had already fallen?
[Possible answer: politically linked to Zedekiah?]
4. Why would not Nephi mention the turmoil going on associated with Zedekiah (deportation of 10,000)?
5. Why would Laman and Lemuel think that Lehi was following the "foolish imaginations of his heart" (1
Nephi 2:11) if Jerusalem had already fallen? [Possible answer: same reasoning as with Jeremiah?]
6. Why did neither Laman or Lemuel "believe that Jerusalem, that great city, could be destroyed" (1
Nephi 2:13) if it had already fallen? [Possible answer: same reasoning as with Jeremiah?]
7. Why would Nephi not mention the turmoil if the siege had been in place for many months? (1 Ne
2:11,13)
8. Why would Nephi note "the commencement of the first year of the reign of Zedekiah" (1 Ne 1:4) but
not the year that Lehi supposedly left (587 B.C.), especially when Lehi's 600 year prophecy of the coming of the
Messiah related to the year Lehi left Jerusalem?
9. How does one account for the fact that Lehi sojourned "eight years in the wilderness" (1 Nephi 17:4)
and still had to learn about the destruction of Jerusalem by a vision after they had landed in the promised land?
10. What about Alma 52:1/56:1 in view of a Lunar (354 day non-intercalated) calendar?
11. What about the superscript of 3 Nephi which says that Lehi "came out of Jerusalem in the first year
of the reign of Zedekiah"?

That Ye May Glorify the Name of Your God
Part 1
One of the major purposes of the Book of Mormon, according to the title page, is "to the convincing of the Jew and Gentile that
Jesus is the Christ, the Eternal God, manifesting himself unto all nations." A number of years ago, Susan Black found that the name of the
Savior appears nearly 25 percent more frequently in the Book of Mormon than even in the New Testament. "Each title signifying Christ is in
correct contextual usage each time it appears. His character and mission and his divine relationship to us are thereby more clearly
revealed." (Susan Easton Black, Finding Christ through the Book of Mormon, pp. 15,16,28). Susan Black was able to come up with 100
different titles for the Lord in the Book of Mormon. Since then I have compiled a continually growing list of nearly 500 different descriptive
titles for the Lord which are found in the Book of Mormon.

NOTES
i. According to The Golden Home and High School Encyclopedia, the tropical year is the year of our
seasons. The length of the tropical year is 365 days 5 hours 48 minutes 46 seconds. The Roman
calendar, based on 12 moon months a year with an additional month now and then, was 85 days off by 47
B.C. At that time Julius Caesar was in Alexandria, Egypt. There he secured the aid of Sosigenes, who
constructed a calendar similar to that used by the Egyptians. It was called the Julian calendar in honor of
Julius Caesar. It ignored the moon month and fixed the year at 365 days divided into 12 slightly unequal
months. Every four years a day was added to the Julian calendar, but that advanced the calendar days a
little too much.
By the spring of 1582, which officially began on March 21, the Julian calendar was ten days early.
Pope Gregory XIII decreed that the days between October 5 and 15 would be dropped to set the calendar
right again. This "Gregorian Calendar" assigned 365 days to each year plus a 366th day every fourth
year, called a leap year. Because the extra day exceeded the needed amount by an average of 11
minutes 14 seconds per year, the calendar left out the 366th day of each leap year ending in an even
hundred, such as the years 1700, 1800, and 1900, except for those evenly divisible by the number 400,
such as the year 2000. This meant that in every 400 years three days would be dropped, which reduced
the difference between 400 Gregorian calendar years and 400 tropical years (the year of our seasons) to
less than three hours. The Gregorian calendar was readily adopted in Catholic countries, but wasn't made
official in England until 1752. [The Golden Home and High School Encyclopedia. New York: Golden
Press, 1961, Vol. 4, p. 477; Vol. 19, p. 2826]
