Are Joseph Smith’s First Vision accounts contradictory? Ep. 42

Did you know that Joseph Smith told his “First Vision” experience to different people, in different places, at different times, and for different purposes, on multiple occasions? In this episode, Dave reviews the four main first(ish)-hand accounts of the vision. He talks about their similarities and their differences, while pointing out that omitting details is very different from contradicting details.
