As early as 1829 there were actually American Biblical scholars who had full command of the Biblical languages ~ Classical Greek, Aramaic, Hebrew, Latin ~ and actually some other related languages.

John Leland, who wrote the words of the First Amendment was one of them.

The fact that America was wide open and waiting development did not mean we had no educated men.

I haven't found a cross reference to Leland and some of the Primitive Baptist and Christian Church movement folks who also associated with (or against) Smith.

AMEN!

And folks got more 'education' in one room schools using McGuffys readers than some college graduates do today!
