Another significant fulfillment of Isaiah’s prophecy occurred in our dispensation. In February 1828, Martin Harris traveled to New York City with a transcription of some characters from the Book of Mormon plates. He intended to show them to experts in ancient languages. One scholar he spoke with was Charles Anthon, a professor of Latin and Greek. After examining the characters, Professor Anthon gave Martin a certificate verifying their authenticity.
However, after learning that the plates had been delivered to Joseph Smith by an angel, Professor Anthon tore the certificate into pieces. He told Martin that if Joseph wanted the plates translated, he should bring them to New York City and let a scholar translate them. When Martin explained that a portion of the plates were sealed and that Joseph was not allowed to show them to anyone, Professor Anthon replied, “I cannot read a sealed book.” Martin and Joseph later spoke of the visit to Anthon as a fulfillment of Isaiah’s prophecy.
