Dr. A.H. Sayce, Oxford, England
"I have examined the illustrations given in the 'Pearl of Great Price.' In the first place, they are copies (very badly done) of well known Egyptian subjects of which I have dozens of examples. Secondly, they are all many centuries later than Abraham."
Dr. W.M. Flinders Petrie, London University
"Joseph Smith's interpretation of them as part of a unique revelation through Abraham, therefore, very clearly demonstrates that he was totally unacquainted with the significance of these documents and absolutely ignorant of the simplest facts of Egyptian writing and civilization."
James, H. Breasted, Ph.D., Haskell Oriental Museum, University of Chicago
"The 'Book of Abraham,' it is hardly necessary to say, is a pure fabrication."
