The Book of Mormon: Part 2 (1 Nephi chapters 16-22)

/ Daniel Mynyk/ No Comments

This episode is part 2 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

1 Nephi chapters 16-22 cover the journey of the prophet Lehi and his family to the coast of southeastern Arabia. Nephi builds a ship. The family sails to their new “promised land,” which is somewhere in the ancient Americas. Once there, the family found resources to build civilization there. Nephi wrote some prophecy on metal plates and explained to his older brothers what it means and encourages them to obey God’s commandments.

I briefly address issues over the Laman river, horses in Mesoamerica, and the curious convenience of hindsight in detailed prophecies allegedly written in the 500’s B.C.
