Summary: "New Witnesses for God (Volume 3 of 3)" by B. H. Roberts is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This volume continues the series dedicated to providing evidence supporting the claims of the Book of Mormon, particularly focusing on external and internal evidences that may authenticate its truth. The book delves into various themes, such as American traditions of the Messiah's birth and death, paralleling key events in the Book of Mormon with native legends and prophecies. The opening of this volume presents a detailed exploration of traditions surrounding the signs of the Messiah's birth and death, particularly in the context of the Western Hemisphere. Roberts references various indigenous accounts and attempts to identify continuity between these narratives and those found in the Book of Mormon. He discusses instances of cataclysms like eclipses and darkness that coincide with the death of the Messiah while weaving in native American traditions that may echo the events described in sacred texts, suggesting a link between ancient Hebrew culture and the origins of native American civilizations.
