restoration of the Jews in the latter days.

      1 Nephi 15:20

       20 And I did rehearse unto them the words of Isaiah, who spake

       concerning the restoration of the Jews, or of the house of

       Israel; and after they were restored they should no more be

       confounded, neither should they be scattered again. And it came

       to pass that I did speak many words unto my brethren, that they

       were pacified and did humble themselves before the Lord.

      1 Nephi 15:21

       21 And it came to pass that they did speak unto me again,

       saying: What meaneth this thing which our father saw in a dream?

       What meaneth the tree which he saw?

      1 Nephi 15:22

       22 And I said unto them: It was a representation of the tree of

       life.

      1 Nephi 15:23

       23 And they said unto me: What meaneth the rod of iron which our

       father saw, that led to the tree?

      1 Nephi 15:24

       24 And I said unto them that it was the word of God, and whoso

       would hearken unto the word of God, and would hold fast unto it,

       they would never perish; neither could the temptations and the

       fiery darts of the adversary overpower them unto blindness, to

       lead them away to destruction.

      1 Nephi 15:25

       25 Wherefore, I, Nephi, did exhort them to give heed unto the

       word of the Lord; yea, I did exhort them with all the energies of

       my soul, and with all the faculty which I possessed, that they

       would give heed to the word of God and remember to keep his

       commandments always in all things.

      1 Nephi 15:26

       26 And they said unto me: What meaneth the river of water which

       our father saw?

      1 Nephi 15:27

       27 And I said unto them that the water which my father saw was

       filthiness; and so much was his mind swallowed up in other things

       that he beheld not the filthiness of the water.

      1 Nephi 15:28

       28 And I said unto them that it was an awful gulf, which

       separated the wicked from the tree of life, and also from the

       saints of God.

      1 Nephi 15:29

       29 And I said unto them that it was a representation of that

       awful hell, which the angel said unto me was prepared for the

       wicked.

      1 Nephi 15:30

       30 And I said unto them that our father also saw that the

       justice of God did also divide the wicked from the righteous; and

       the brightness thereof was like unto the brightness of a flaming

       fire, which ascendeth up unto God forever and ever, and hath no

       end.

      1 Nephi 15:31

       31 And they said unto me: Doth this thing mean the torment of

       the body in the days of probation, or doth it mean the final

       state of the soul after the death of the temporal body, or doth

       it speak of the things which are temporal?

      1 Nephi 15:32

       32 And it came to pass that I said unto them that it was a

       representation of things both temporal and spiritual; for the day

       should come that they must be judged of their works, yea, even

       the works which were done by the temporal body in their days of

       probation.

      1 Nephi 15:33

       33 Wherefore, if they should die in their wickedness they must

       be cast off also, as to the things which are spiritual, which are

       pertaining to righteousness; wherefore, they must be brought to

       stand before God, to be judged of their works; and if their works

       have been filthiness they must needs be filthy; and if they be

       filthy it must needs be that they cannot dwell in the kingdom of

       God; if so, the kingdom of God must be filthy also.

      1 Nephi 15:34

       34 But behold, I say unto you, the kingdom of God is not filthy,

       and there cannot any unclean thing enter into the kingdom of God;

       wherefore there must needs be a place of filthiness prepared for

       that which is filthy.

      1 Nephi 15:35

       35 And there is a place prepared, yea, even that awful hell of

       which I have spoken, and the devil is the preparator of it;

       wherefore the final state of the souls of men is to dwell in the

       kingdom of God, or to be cast out because of that justice of

       which I have spoken.

      1 Nephi 15:36

       36 Wherefore, the wicked are rejected from the righteous, and

       also from that tree of life, whose fruit is most precious and

       most desirable above all other fruits; yea, and it is the

       greatest of all the gifts of God. And thus I spake unto my

       brethren. Amen.

      1 Nephi 16 Chapter 16

      1 Nephi 16:1

       1 And now it came to pass that after I, Nephi, had made an end

       of speaking to my brethren, behold they said unto me: Thou hast

       declared unto us hard things, more than we are able to bear.

      1 Nephi 16:2

       2 And it came to pass that I said unto them that I knew that I

       had spoken hard things against the wicked, according to the

       truth; and the righteous have I justified, and testified that

       they should be lifted up at the last day; wherefore, the guilty

       taketh the truth to be hard, for it cutteth them to the very

       center.

      1 Nephi 16:3

       3 And now my brethren, if ye were righteous and were willing to

       hearken to the truth, and give heed unto it, that ye might walk

       uprightly before God, then ye would not murmur because of the

       truth, and say: Thou speakest hard things against us.

      1 Nephi 16:4

       4 And it came to pass that I, Nephi, did exhort my brethren,

       with all diligence, to keep the commandments of the Lord.

      1 Nephi 16:5

       5 And it came to pass that they did humble themselves before the

       Lord; insomuch that I had joy and great hopes of them, that they

       would walk in the paths of righteousness.
