1 Nephi 7:16

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.

1 Nephi 8:12

And as I partook of the fruit thereof

it filled my soul with exceedingly great joy;

wherefore, I began to be desirous that my family should partake of it also;

for I knew that it was desirable above all other fruit.

1 Nephi 8:30

But, to be short in writing, behold, he saw other multitudes pressing forward;

and they came and caught hold of the end of the rod of iron;

and they did press their way forward,

continually holding fast to the rod of iron,

until they came forth and fell down and partook of the fruit of the tree.
