For Mormon readers, this differs from Mormon teaching on the inspiration of the Book of Mormon. Joseph Smith allegedly supernaturally translated the Book of Mormon word by word and letter by letter, by looking at a seerstone in a black hat.
Kwa wasomaji wa maandiko ya Kimomoni, jambo hili linatofautiana na mafundisho ya Kimomoni kuhusu kuvuviwa kwa Kitabu cha Momoni. Joseph Smith anadaiwa kutafsiri kimiujiza Kitabu cha Momoni neno kwa neno na herufi kwa herufi, kwa kuangalia jiwe la mwonaji kwenye kofia nyeusi.
