2 Nephi 25:18

Wherefore, he shall bring forth his words unto them,

which words shall judge them at the last day,

for they shall be given them for the purpose of convincing them

of the true Messiah, who was rejected by them;

and unto the convincing of them

that they need not look forward any more for a Messiah to come,

for there should not any come, save it should be a false Messiah

which should deceive the people;

for there is save one Messiah spoken of by the prophets,

and that Messiah is he who should be rejected of the Jews.

2 Nephi 27:5

For behold, the Lord hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep.

For behold, ye have closed your eyes,

and ye have rejected the prophets;

and your rulers, and the seers hath he covered because of your iniquity.

2 Nephi 27:20

Then shall the Lord God say unto him:

The learned shall not read them,

for they have rejected them,

and I am able to do mine own work;

wherefore thou shalt read the words which I shall give unto thee.
