Variant spelling of MANASSEH
- 2 Nephi 19:21a
P: Mannassah >jg Mannasseh
- 2 Nephi 19:21b
P: Mannassah
- Alma 10:3
P: Manassah
Discussion: The first occurrence was spelled Mannassah by Cowdery in P; it was later incorrectly "corrected" by John Gilbert to Mannasseh in P. The second occurrence is the same, except that John Gilbert did not "correct" it. Scribe 2 misspelled the third occurrence in P as Manassah.
Summary: Manasseh, the KJV spelling, is correct
