Variant spelling of JERSHON

Jershur

Alma 27:22
O: Jershur > Jershon
P, 1830-1981: Jershon

Jeshon

Alma 28:1
P: Jeshon

Discussion: Spelled Jershur (perhaps because of preceding -er sound), then immediately corrected by Cowdery in O. This is the only time Jershon was ever misspelled in O; Cowdery only misspelled Jerson once in P, where in Alma 28:1 he spelled it as Jeshon.

Summary: These two variantions are just scribal errors; maintain correct Jershon.
