And behold, they shall go unto the unbelieving of the Jews;

and for this intent shall they go —

that they may be persuaded that Jesus is the Christ,

the Son of the living God;

that the Father may bring about, through his most Beloved,

his great and eternal purpose,

in restoring the Jews, or all the house of Israel,

to the land of their inheritance,

which the Lord their God hath given them,

unto the fulfilling of his covenant;

Mormon 5:15

which shall go forth unto them from the Gentiles;

for this people shall be scattered,

and shall become a dark, a filthy, and a loathsome people,

yea, even that which hath been among the Lamanites,

and this because of their unbelief and idolatry.

for the Gentiles who shall possess the land.

which have been put up unto him for them.
