Do Book of Mormon pronouns support its authenticity?

In Biblical Hebrew, possessive pronouns are usually attached to their respective nouns. When translated into English, those pronouns can thus sometimes be repeated (this is most noticeable in lists of nouns). In this episode, David shows where we see similar grammatical happenings throughout the Book of Mormon. These instances support the claim that the Book of Mormon is of an ancient Hebrew literary tradition.

Notes:
- I wasn’t able to find any great examples of this structure in English that were not connected to the Hebrew tradition. That said, I would imagine that it’s possible for it to show up sometimes. This is one of the reasons why I say at the end of the video that viewers get to make a choice concerning the value of this insight. Personally, I think that the repeated use of this structure in the Book of Mormon (on top of the many other examples of Hebrew influence) argues against coincidence or happenstance.
