Post An Outline of the Textual Structure of the Book of Mormon

For many months now I have been working on a project involving the Book of Mormon, which I will be unveiling in the near future. As part of that project, I have compiled an outline of the textual structure of the Book of Mormon. I looked for an existing outline, but couldn’t find anything extensive enough for my needs. I am making it available here for anyone interested (as a PDF document).

I just took a quick look.
I think that's great, jmaxwilson!
As a non-LDS that had in mind to learn about the Church, I think that's really fantastic.

Thanks Heavenguard! I know that it is quite complicated, but for me at least it has helped to be able to read the Book of Mormon more effectively.

Let me know if you have any questions about the outline.

Excellent! Outstanding! I'd love a source like this to enhance my personal study.

At one time, I had a picture that attempted to show all this graphically. But sadly, I've lost it.

If you're interested in some spot checking on accuracy by knowledgeable folks, you should consider dropping by MADB, and letting their Pundits take a look at it.

Thanks for sharing with us - please let us know when it's complete!

Ohhh....
