This particular set of chapters is very, very difficult. There's no easy way to get around this.

0:09.0

The Nephite society and the Lamanite society have gotten to the point where they are

0:15.0

steeped in pride and sin and destruction and sorrow and spending most of their time in this aspect of the

0:23.5

pride cycle and spending very little time here in the humility and repentance side. So we pick

0:30.6

up our story in the 60 and 9th year of the reign of the judges with Nephi, who's that son

0:36.5

of Heelman, coming back down into the land of

0:39.4

Zahemla. He's been up in the land northward, trying to teach the people up there, but has been

1:39.3

than it is to repent and be humble and force conformance of my behavior to God's laws.

1:48.7

So that's what's happened societally is this group has just slowly made it so that the laws

1:55.2

match up with their desires for iniquity and their desires for evil. Skipping over the first 15 verses where he's crying his lament to God

2:06.1

and having that initial interaction with these people from his tower.

2:10.0

Look at verse 16 in chapter 7.

2:12.3

Ye, how could you have given way to the enticing of him
