- As the sons of Lehi and the family of Ishmael make their way through the wilderness to join Lehi and Sariah, some of the company become dissatisfied and want to return to their former lives in Jerusalem. Laman and Lemuel in particular become very angry with Nephi and bind him with cords so they can leave him to the wild animals in the wilderness. Nephi exercises his faith in God, and the cords are miraculously loosened from his hands and feet. Certain members of Ishmael's family plead with Laman and Lemuel to stop their rebellion and apologize, which they eventually do. Nephi forgives them, and the company continues on to join Lehi and Sariah at their tent site.
Based on 1 Nephi 7:6-22:
6 And it came to pass that as we journeyed in the wilderness, behold Laman and Lemuel, and two of the daughters of Ishmael, and the two sons of Ishmael and their families, did rebel against us; yea, against me, Nephi, and Sam, and their father, Ishmael, and his wife, and his three other daughters.
7 And it came to pass in the which rebellion, they were desirous to return unto the land of Jerusalem.
8 And now I, Nephi, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, therefore I spake unto them, saying, yea, even unto Laman and unto Lemuel: Behold ye are mine elder brethren, and how is it that ye are so hard in your hearts, and so blind in your minds, that ye have need that I, your younger brother, should speak unto you, yea, and set an example for you?
9 How is it that ye have not hearkened unto the word of the Lord?
10 How is it that ye have forgotten that ye have seen an angel of the Lord?
11 Yea, and how is it that ye have forgotten what great things the Lord hath done for us, in delivering us out of the hands of Laban, and also that we should obtain the record?
12 Yea, and how is it that ye have forgotten that the Lord is able to do all things according to his will, for the children of men, if it so be that they exercise faith in him? Wherefore, let us be faithful to him.
13 And if it so be that we are faithful to him, we shall obtain the land of promise; and ye shall know at some future period that the word of the Lord shall be fulfilled concerning the destruction of Jerusalem; for all things which the Lord hath spoken concerning the destruction of Jerusalem must be fulfilled.
14 For behold, the Spirit of the Lord ceaseth soon to strive with them; for behold, they have rejected the prophets, and Jeremiah have they cast into prison. And they have sought to take away the life of my father, insomuch that they have driven him out of the land.
15 Now behold, I say unto you that if ye will return unto Jerusalem ye shall also perish with them. And now, if ye have choice, go up to the land, and remember the words which I speak unto you, that if ye go ye will also perish; for thus the Spirit of the Lord constraineth me that I should speak.
16 And it came to pass that when I, Nephi, had spoken these words unto my brethren, they were angry with me. And it came to pass that they did lay their hands upon me, for behold, they were exceedingly wroth, and they did bind me with cords, for they sought to take away my life, that they might leave me in the wilderness to be devoured by wild beasts.
17 But it came to pass that I prayed unto the Lord, saying: O Lord, according to my faith which is in thee, wilt thou deliver me from the hands of my brethren; yea, even give me strength that I may burst these bands with which I am bound.
18 And it came to pass that when I had said these words, behold, the bands were loosed from off my hands and feet, and I stood before my brethren, and I spake unto them again.
19 And it came to pass that they were angry with me again, and sought to lay hands upon me; but behold, one of the daughters of Ishmael, yea, and also her mother, and one of the sons of Ishmael, did plead with my brethren, insomuch that they did soften their hearts; and they did cease striving to take away my life.
20 And it came to pass that they were sorrowful, because of their wickedness, insomuch that they did bow down before me, and did plead with me that I would forgive them of the thing that they had done against me.
21 And it came to pass that I did frankly forgive them all that they had done, and I did exhort them that they would pray unto the Lord their God for forgiveness. And it came to pass that they did so. And after they had done praying unto the Lord we did again travel on our journey towards the tent of our father.
22 And it came to pass that we did come down unto the tent of our father. And after I and my brethren and all the house of Ishmael had come down unto the tent of my father, they did give thanks unto the Lord their God; and they did offer sacrifice and burnt offerings unto him.

How many times do we say ( SORRY) Heavenly Father, it amazes me how much patience HE has with me. I feel for Lemuel and Laman, I have been so much like them.
@6:00 the power of those 4 brothers, hugging it out... what an incredible moment to strengthen our testimonies of Agape love. May Adonai bless and keep them together. In the name of Jesus Christ Amen
They keep getting better. I look forward to each one.
It's hard to watch how they treat Nephi, but It's good to know that my family isn't the only one with problems. Great video. Can't wait to see more.
We love, love the Book of Mormon and it is true and blesses our lives. These videos are great!
Nuestra madre Maria y su Hijo Jesús y su esposo José fue la bendición de Jehova
The Lord does deliver the righteous.
Gracias por la Gracias de Jehova fue creado todo
Am I the only one who needs the creators of this awesome series to please number them? Please! So we can keep watching them in order, even when we miss occasionally.
Follow along by the verse references 👍🏻
Yes!!! Somewhere on the first screen! Please!
Micah Fagre, the entire scripture doesn’t show on the icon description, which is where we select what to watch next.
I found a playlist that has them in order czcams.com/video/edg-0hAM3iA/video.html FWIW :)
I LOVE THE BOOK OF MORMON!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💙💙💚🧡🎈💚🧡🎈😍😍😍
I feel bad for Laman and Lemuel. I feel like, at least at this time, that they did really care about Nephi, because so many times we see them get pretty sorrowful after they've had some sense knocked into them. I think they just had a tendency to get so angry so quickly it overrode their judgement. Sadly, I think this eventually won over them and eroded their love for Nephi
He looks like Nephi. Can This Terminator live again even when my power cells fully lose their charge?
Nobody:
Babies in public places: 4:26
3:19 I will not be lectured BY A BOY
Go to work and come home 😭
No one:
Laman: *after trying to kill his brother* IM SORRY
Stop that
Dhzo
I thought nephi was large in stature
he is, but exceedingly young in stature. Imagine to compare 2 Five year old kid who's not in the same height, same weight. Nephi is larger than those of his same age . Hope I can help you with it.
I hope this is not the episode for today because it is the same one as last week 😥😥
It's not, it's just a reply of a scene of last episode.
@@outdoorsbeyondnature1980 I doubt it.
New episode every Friday
@@ddfstar7588 😂😂😂😂 I just realized today is Thursday, for some reason I thought it was Friday 😂😂 silly me.
First time seeing this one
Why are you releasing this series in 5 min segments? ANNOYING! If you want to turn this into a series vs a long movie. Do one hour segments at a time! I don't want to want it 5 mins at a time. I get it the missionaries might use that 5 minute clip. Ok. Have a sharing with other playlist. But you also need to have it all stitched together without the annoyingness
Steven@ they release the entire segment every fridays. They cut to little clips for visual aids, teaching.
This been release last Friday.
You can watch the full episodes here: czcams.com/play/PLWHql2MOiVzpQXnfsikmyznggcLe64KXd.html
It's just like the New Testament videos. Remember, this will be seen by nonmembers and young people. They need a short version. Also, as you study the scriptures, it's great to go back and see the video of the section that you need. Short videos you can watch constantly, if it's a movie, you probably watch it every once in a while. I like the short videos.
They have already decided to release a full video every friday and highlight clips through the week, not annoying, but brilliant!
Steven Schultz, I know you sure do love watching the Book Of Mormon Videos. Imagine a kid who loves eating his favorite cake of a considerable large of size. Of course, he cannot eat it whole so he might take a small piece of it, a piece of cake where he can manage to eat. The makers of this film cannot do it in a one whole sweep, of course they need the guidance of the companionship of the Holy Ghost. As we ponder to read and study the scriptures, we might take a pause and afterwards we can read it again. I hope this may help you understand.
