[edit] Questions

[edit] Verse 26

  • Why doesn't Nephi say they were forced, or had little choice but, "to leave behind our property"?

[edit] Verse 27

  • Why did the servants of Laban not pursue them all the way to the rock? Did the servants only run to the boundary of the city and no further? Did Nephi and his brethren run faster than the servants?

[edit] Verse 28

  • What had Sam done up to this point to merit the wrath of Laman and Lemuel?

[edit] Verse 29

  • How were Laman and Lemuel supposed to know that Nephi had been set apart to be their ruler? Were Laman and Lemuel privy to the revelation that Nephi received about becoming a ruler (see 1 Ne 2:22)?

[edit] Verse 30

  • To whom exactly did the angel speak? Did he speak "unto them" (1 Ne 3:29) or "unto us" (1 Ne 3:30)?

[edit] Verse 31

  • Why did Laman and Lemuel automatically assume that Laban would resist them? Was there room to interpret the angel's words as saying that Laban would not resist the efforts of Lehi's sons to obtain the brass plates?
