Custodial History

The item was donated to the LDS Church Library Archives by J. K. Larsen, a German Jew who converted to Christianity. It was later given to Brigham Young University Archives. Larsen said his father had secured, in Palestine, a manuscript of the New Testament in Greek. The younger Larsen then copied it down while he was still in Germany. During the Nazi purges the original manuscript was destroyed.
