(George Quayle) The Life of Nephi, the Son of Lehi Who Emigrated from Jerusalem, in Judea, to the Land Which Is Now Known as South America, about Six Centuries Before the Coming of Our Savior Produced by Margaret Willden, Mormon Texts Project Intern (http://mormontextsproject.org/) "The Life of Nephi, the Son of Lehi" by George Q. Cannon is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work presents the life of Nephi, a prominent figure from the Book of Mormon, and focuses on his journey from Jerusalem to the Americas alongside his family. The book aims to provide young members of the Mormon Church with familiar insights into the foundational events of their faith, highlighting Nephi's faithfulness and the challenges faced by his family. At the start of the narrative, the author establishes Nephi's character as someone deeply devoted to God, providing background on his life in Jerusalem when his father, Lehi, prophesied the city's destruction based on divine revelation. Lehi's visions compel him to flee Jerusalem, leading to their journey into the wilderness where they encounter various trials, including rejection from Laman and Lemuel, Nephi's brothers, who often question his leadership. The opening chapters set a rich context for Nephi's foundational role in the establishment of a new civilization and his unwavering faith, which serves as a moral example throughout the text.
