2 Nephi 10:2, 3, 21



2 Nephi 10:2

For behold, the promises which we have obtained

are promises unto us according to the flesh;

wherefore, as it has been shown unto me

that many of our children shall perish in the flesh because of unbelief,

nevertheless, God will be merciful unto many;

and our children shall be restored,

that they may come to that which will give them

the true knowledge of their Redeemer.



2 Nephi 10:3

Wherefore, as I said unto you,

it must needs be expedient that Christ —

for in the last night the angel spake unto me

that this should be his name —

should come among the Jews,

among those who are the more wicked part of the world;

and they shall crucify him —

for thus it behooveth our God,

and there is none other nation on earth

that would crucify their God.



2 Nephi 10:21

But great are the promises of the Lord unto them

who are upon the isles of the sea;

wherefore as it says isles, there must needs be more than this,

and they are inhabited also by our brethren.
