The Seer Stones of Joseph Smith

Knowledge of Joseph Smith’s seer stones won’t change our doctrines—nor can they offer salvation. But they do challenge the limits of our assumptions about how God works, especially when it comes to miracles. Early witnesses of the Book of Mormon translation process consistently described Joseph’s use of seer stones as a divine instrument, not a distraction from revelation, but a confirmation of it. Emma Smith testified that Joseph had no manuscript or book in front of him as he dictated; to her, this was evidence of divine aid. Oliver Cowdery remembered those sacred hours as “days never to be forgotten.”
As Joseph read the words given through the stones, he wasn’t referencing books or injecting his own commentary—he was acting as a conduit. And in that light, the seer stones become not a relic of superstition, but a bold declaration that the Book of Mormon did not originate from Joseph Smith. Yet in our modern world, shaped by skepticism and a reliance on replicable scientific proof, we can become blind to the miracle that early Saints recognized without hesitation: that God had indeed spoken again, and the stone was simply a tool in His hand.
