1 Nephi 13-14

I wonder how long Nephi was with the angel? Could it have been like a minute? or a few hours? or a few days? I feel like seeing ALL the stuff going on in the world from beginning to end would take quite some time, but of course the Lord's time is not the same as our time.

I loved how when Nephi had a question, the angel would answer him directly.. Like starting in verse 21: "And the angel said unto me: Knowest thou the meaning of this book. 22. And I said unto him: I know not. 23 And he said: Behold it proceedeth out of the mouth of a Jew. And I, Nephi, beheld it..." and the angel goes on to explain what the book was and what the purpose of the book was. I just love it. And it kind of ties into the whole "Knock and it shall be opened" thing... Just ask. And with a little patience and understanding, the answer will come.
