Variant spelling of BOAZ

Beaz

Mormon 4:20
P: Beaz > Boaz/Beaz
1830: Beaz
1837-1981: Boaz

Discussion: The scribes often wrote their o's so they looked like e's, so it is difficult to decide which word was intended. The 1837 edition has Boaz though, after the biblical name, so that is the more likely choice.

Summary: Skousen accepts Boaz.
