2 Nephi 2:9

Wherefore, he is the firstfruits unto God,

inasmuch as he shall make intercession for all the children of men;

and they that believe in him shall be saved.

2 Nephi 2:17

And I, Lehi, according to the things which I have read,

must needs suppose that an angel of God,

according to that which is written,

had fallen from heaven;

wherefore, he became a devil,

having sought that which was evil before God.

2 Nephi 2:18

And because he had fallen from heaven,

and had become miserable forever,

he sought also the misery of all mankind.

Wherefore, he said unto Eve,

yea, even that old serpent, who is the devil,

who is the father of all lies,

wherefore he said:

Partake of the forbidden fruit, and ye shall not die,

but ye shall be as God, knowing good and evil.
