Joseph

Nephis Blog Book of Mormon

I am the youngest of the Lehi and Sariah family. Like my brother Jacob, I was born in the wilderness in the middle of tremendous family strife. Following the acquisition of the Brass Plates and my father Lehi learning about his ancestry and knowing he is a descendent to Joseph, I was blessed with his name.

Zenos, Prophet of the Brass Plates

By the time many of you read this blog, you will have other prophetic writings available which preach of Christ and His mission. But for us now, we only have the writings of my brothers Nephi and Jacob and our Father Lehi and the writings on the Brass Plates. Therefore we …

My brother Jacob – a man of sorrows.

Though I haven’t contributed much to this blog, I do want to take an opportunity to sustain and support my brother Jacob in his recent messages where he has been firm in calling our people to repentance. First, please indulge me as I attempt to help you understand …

Fruit of My Loins

Jacob told you about his blessing and the teachings he received from our father. Though my father did the same with me, rather than teach doctrines of great profoundness, he mostly prophesied about my posterity and taught me about my ancestor for …
