     * It seems like Joseph Smith was very careful (perhaps even hesitant) to make changes to the Sermon on the Mount
+== Scriptures were modified in earlier generations ==
   * 1 Nephi 13:26 - many important parts were removed from the Bible
   * 2 Nephi 29:10 - do not suppose that the Bible does not contain all of God's words or that he has not caused more to be written

+"the Doctrine and Covenants contains no extracts from the Joseph Smith Translation, but considerable regulatory information about it: directions about starting and temporarily stopping the work (see D&C 37:1; 73:3–4), beginning the New Testament (see D&C 45: 60–62), and calling a scribe (see D&C 35:20); an admonition to “hasten” the process (D&C 93:53); and some recommendations about the printing (see D&C 94:10; 124:89). There are also certain revelations that grew out of the work on the translation but were not actually part of the Joseph Smith text (see D&C 76:15–18; 86:1–7; 77; 91)." (BYU source)
