Book of Mormon tally tops 140 million
Joseph Smith, who founded The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the 19th century, said he translated the book from a set of gold plates given to him by an angel of God. The church considers the book to be one of its foundational scriptures.
More than 1 million LDS missionaries have distributed the book worldwide, the church statement said, noting the book is currently available in 107 languages.
