Variant Spelling of SHILOM

Shemlon

Mosiah 11:13a
P: Shemlon > Shilom
1830-1981: Shilom

Discussion: Cowdery wrote Shemlon, but immediately corrected it to Shilom in P. He probably made this error because of the similarity between the two, and their proximity to each other in the text.

Summary: Maintain Shilom.
