Variant spelling of MAHER-SHALAL-HASH-BAZ

Maher shalal hash baz

2 Nephi 18:1
P: Maher shalal hash baz >- Maher-shalal-hash-baz
1830-1981: Maher-shalal-hash-baz

Mahershalal hash baz

2 Nephi 18:3
P: Mahershalal hash baz >+ Maher-shalal-hash-baz
1830-1981: Maher-shalal-hash-baz

Discussion: In the first occurrence, it was first Maher shalal hash baz in P, but later Cowdery added hyphens to it in P. The second verse is almost the same, but without a space initially between Maher and shalal.

Summary: Skousen accepts Maher-shalal-hash-baz.
