2 Nephi 11 is simply amazing. Nephi SAW the Savior, Jacob SAW the Savior. They sat with Him and talked with Him. I can only imagine how they wanted to share what was taught to them. And so I love verse 4 when Nephi says his “soul delighteth in proving unto my people the truth of the coming of Christ”. I know that when I am excited about something, I want to tell everyone! (For example, I am going to Missouri at the end of the month…which I am excited about…) So I’m sure Nephi and Jacob wanted to proclaim it to the world!
I also love that Nephi reminds us that Isaiah had also seen Christ, and with that, there are three witnesses of Christ. And in verse 3 it says, “Wherefore, by the words of three, God hath said, I will establish my word.” That automatically made me think of the three witnesses of the Book of Mormon. Always in threes, but of course, the Lord has even more witnesses of him, even today. I’m pretty sure President Monson has talked with Christ. And a lot, if not ALL of the apostles. How cool would that be really?
Chapter 12 is a bit scary haha. All these things that you should not do, otherwise, you’re pretty much out of luck!! Keep doing good Ash! And keep sending me pictures of your adorable babies!!
