Exegesis
The combination of verses 7-8 and verse 9 is very interesting. Adam learns about the Only Begotten, and then hears, “I am the Only Begotten…” First he learns that the sacrifice he has been making is in similitude to one that God’s Only Begotten will make, and that that means he should do all he does in the name of the Son and call upon God and repent. But it is only in the message of the Holy Ghost that he is told the Only Begotten becomes a redeemer – that His sacrifice somehow means Adam and all mankind may be redeemed! With these two messages combined, he has a “why” that could be given to an angel’s inquiry.
