Commentary


Well, this is the first chapter (I think) that is all blue. I kind of expect more of these kinds of chapters from the Book of Mormon.

I wasn't sure about marking both verse 5 and verse 8.  They're both saying the same thing about Christ and I usually don't mark the same thing in the same chapter.  (If it says the same thing in a different chapter, I'll still mark it.)  But since one came from Lehi as an, "I know he'll do this" sort of way while trying to comfort his wife and the other came from Sariah as an, "I know he did this" sort of way, I decided to mark both.
