0:00.0 | So we're going to begin with some overview. And there's some chapters in the Book of Mormon |
0:05.6 | that we'll need to go back to. So we're going to do a little bit of rewind. We'll do some |
0:09.3 | fast-forwarding, and then we'll come back actually into Second Nephi. So let's begin with |
0:13.5 | the... |
0:14.3 | Yeah. So it's interesting that it's Nephi who gives us more Isaiah chapters than any other prophet in the |
