Vs 3 Nephi speaks to his brothers, who just got done beating him with a stick, he says lets keep the commandments of God, lets be faithful..."ye also know that an angel hath spoken unto you; wherefore can ye doubt? Hellooooo!!!! Laman and Lemuel get with the program, you just saw an angel of God.
Vs 6 This scripture is what we should be patterning our lives after. I was led by the spirit, not knowing beforehand the things which I should do. In fact we do it daily, but its much easier if we have the spirit.
Vs 13 The Lord slayeth the wicked to bring forth his righteous purposes. It is better that one man perish, than that an entire nation dwindle and perish in unbelief.
Nephi gives a oath to Zoram, and Zoram gives an oath to Nephi, that he should be free among them. Noone else knew of the flight of Lehi's family into the wilderness, it had to stay that way so that noone would pursue them. Wisdom in God how it all turned out.

1 Nephi Chapter 3
Vs 2, 4-5 Lehi makes it very clear the Lord is commanding the return to Jerusalem. 3 times he says it. Nephi is favored because he does not murmur. I believe we are favored when we obey with out murmuring.
Vs 7 No commandments are given that we can not obey. In every commandment, we have a potential that only the Lord knows. We must move forward with faith, as did Nephi.
Vs 12 QUESTION why was obtaining the plates of brass so important?
Vs 15 faith unto power. As the Lord liveth, and as we live, we will not return until we are finished with what the Lord has commanded.
Vs 19-20 ANSWER that we may preserve the language of our fathers for our children, and preserve the history from Adam to the present day.
Vs 29 The task of retreiving the plates of brass was so important that an angel of the Lord was sent to protect to protect Nephi.
Vs 31 Immediately after the angel leaves, Laman and Lemuel start to murmur again. QUESTION Why were thay past feeling? How can you seen an angel and doubt?
