Book of Abraham

The Book of Abraham is a religious text regarded as scripture by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). It claims to be translated from ancient Egyptian papyri discovered in the 19th century, containing writings related to Abraham’s life and teachings. Critics question its origins and translation process, suggesting the papyri do not match the content of the text. Regardless of scholarly debates, the book holds spiritual significance for believers, offering teachings on faith, obedience, and divine revelation. Its role and authenticity remain topics of discussion between faith communities and scholars.
