1 Nephi 10:11

And it came to pass after my father had spoken these words

he spake unto my brethren concerning the gospel

which should be preached among the Jews,

and also concerning the dwindling of the Jews in unbelief.

And after they had slain the Messiah, who should come,

and after he had been slain

he should rise from the dead,

and should make himself manifest, by the Holy Ghost, unto the Gentiles.



1 Nephi 11:1

For it came to pass after I had desired

to know the things that my father had seen,

and believing that the Lord was able to make them known unto me,

as I sat pondering in mine heart

I was caught away in the Spirit of the Lord,

yea, into an exceedingly high mountain,

which I never had before seen,

and upon which I never had before set my foot.



1 Nephi 11:8

And it came to pass that the Spirit said unto me: Look!

And I looked and beheld a tree;

and it was like unto the tree which my father had seen;

and the beauty thereof was far beyond, yea, exceeding of all beauty;

and the whiteness thereof did exceed the whiteness of the driven snow.



1 Nephi 11:25

And it came to pass that I beheld

that the rod of iron, which my father had seen, was the word of God,

which led to the fountain of living waters, or to the tree of life;

which waters are a representation of the love of God;

and I also beheld that the tree of life was a representation of the love of God.



1 Nephi 11:27

And I looked and beheld the Redeemer of the world,

of whom my father had spoken;

and I also beheld the prophet who should prepare the way before him.

And the Lamb of God went forth and was baptized of him;

and after he was baptized,

I beheld the heavens open,

and the Holy Ghost come down out of heaven

and abide upon him in the form of a dove.
