Variant spelling of AMOZ

Amos

2 Nephi 12:1 || KJV Amoz
P: Amos > Amoz
A: Amoz 1837 1840 1858W 1874R 1908R 1983
1841: Amos 1841 1849 1852 1879 1888 1902 1905 1906 1907 1911 1920 1981

Amoz

2 Nephi 23:1 || KJV Amoz
OA: Amoz (same permutations of forms as for 2 Nephi 12:1 above)
P: Amos > Amoz

Discussion: Amos by Cowdery in P but immediately corrected; error; Amos for all biblical references in LDS “Bible Dictionary,” although this is only true for the name of the Prophet Amos עמוס; the father of Isaiah is Amoz אמוץ.

Acceptability: Scribal error; Amoz is correct.
