Critics claim the First Edition of the Book of Mormon contains "bad grammar" and hence cannot be from God, because God would not use bad grammar. Martin Tanner's guest, Stanford Carmack, Phd, J.D. Stanford University and PhD, U.C. Santa Barbara, a linguist and expert in Book of Mormon syntax demonstrates the supposed "bad grammar" in the Book of Mormon, First Edition, was standard Old English, and is found in William Tyndale's Bible, The Great Bible, the original 1611 King James Bible and other authoritative texts from about 1500 - 1700 AD. This disproves the claim the Book of Mormon originally had "bad grammar."
