Variant Spellings of SEON

- Alma 11:5, 8

P: sean

A: seon

- Alma 11:9

P: S2 sean > S1 seon

A: seon

Discussion: For all of the occurrences, Scribe 2 spelled seon as sean in P (he often wrote a's instead of o's, perhaps from misreading O). The last occurrence was corrected by Cowdery to read seon.

Summary: Although O is not extant here, seon will be maintained since that is Cowdery's revision
