Where can I see an example of Deformed Egyptian?
"And now, behold, we have written this record according to our knowledge, in the characters which are called among us the reformed Egyptian, being handed down and altered by us, according to our manner of speech. And if our plates had been sufficiently large we should have written in Hebrew; but the Hebrew hath been altered by us also; and if we could have written in Hebrew, behold, ye would have had no imperfection in our record." (Book of Mormon 9:32-33)
Anthod denied the whole story. He maintained that he told Harris that he (Harris) was a victim of a fraud. In fact NO ONE at the time could decipher Egyptian.

Blaine, how do you know that Isaiah 29:11 refers to the golden plates? I
don't see the connection to the plates other than the word "sealed".
