That section heading explanations page has the details. The D&C 13 heading no longer mentions the banks of the Susquehanna River as being the site of the restoration of the Aaronic Priesthood.There are a few new paragraphs in the D&C introduction adding interesting historical information.Also, “they are the principal ancestors” is now “they are among the ancestors,” again for clarity and greater accuracy. The introduction of the Book of Mormon now says “a record of God’s dealings with ancient inhabitants of the Americas” (not “ the ancient inhabitants”), to provide clarity and greater accuracy.“Rereward” in the Bible is now “rearward” (so hurray, it now no longer looks like “re-reward”).Standardization of things like “house of Israel” and “firstborn” in the Book of Mormon.It’s a small change, but it’s nice, since some people don’t realize that most of the book headings are part of the original and not a later addition. In the Book of Mormon, they’re now using roman text for anything that was on the original plates and italics for the extracanonical additions (like the chapter headings).Standardized formatting on title pages across the standard works. ![]() Here’s a quick overview of the changes I found interesting (keep in mind that I’m a typesetting/editing geek and so most of what I find interesting is dreadfully dull to ordinary folk): Instructions on updating Gospel Library to the 2013 edition (PDF, LDS.org). ![]()
