Show notes

Now we turn from Lehi to Nephi ALL ABOUT We learn some of the structure and setting that will ultimately give us an overview of the message: The Lamb of God, the Atoning Messiah. The Savior of the World. 1. Watch for the last verse of Chapter 10, THEN read chapter 11 2. inclusio: a kind of book ends, using a repeat of a phrase or verse, to highlight the themes or ideas inclosed. 3. Nephi will use these themes we're going to see in chapters 11-14 for the rest of 1 and 2 Nephi, use Isaiah to highlight it, and even the rest of the Book of Mormon underlines them!
