Lehi's Sons Invite Ishmael's Family to Join Them | 1 Nephi 7:1-5

The Lord commands Lehi to send his unmarried sons to Jerusalem and invite the family of Ishmael to join them. Ishmael's daughters can then marry Lehi's sons in order to increase their family and inherit the land of promise to which the Lord is directing them. Ishmael's family consents and accompanies Laman, Lemuel, Sam, and Nephi on the way back to Lehi's tent in the wilderness.
Based on Nephi 7:1-5:
1 And now I would that ye might know, that after my father, Lehi, had made an end of prophesying concerning his seed, it came to pass that the Lord spake unto him again, saying that it was not meet for him, Lehi, that he should take his family into the wilderness alone; but that his sons should take daughters to wife, that they might raise up seed unto the Lord in the land of promise.
2 And it came to pass that the Lord commanded him that I, Nephi, and my brethren, should again return unto the land of Jerusalem, and bring down Ishmael and his family into the wilderness.
3 And it came to pass that I, Nephi, did again, with my brethren, go forth into the wilderness to go up to Jerusalem.
4 And it came to pass that we went up unto the house of Ishmael, and we did gain favor in the sight of Ishmael, insomuch that we did speak unto him the words of the Lord.
5 And it came to pass that the Lord did soften the heart of Ishmael, and also his household, insomuch that they took their journey with us down into the wilderness to the tent of our father.

When all of the episodes come out I'm going to make it all into one big playlist and play it nonstop like one big movie.

[@oksanakushalieva3335]

You should share it with others 😊

[@janetross1900]

It amazes me that Laman that explains the miraculous things that happened to them and the testimony of their father's visions. The Spirit is in him as he speaks to this family and they obey. It's all in there, but they forget when things get difficult, even a little.

[@broadwaybrook2319]

Yeah, that amazes me too. Cause Laman and Lemuel are always shown to be jerks, but I like it that Laman shares what he witnessed

[@finaljesus]

i love watching these videos there so beautifully made and always send a good message

[@broadwaybrook2319]

Aww! Those two little kids chasing after the chickens are so cute!

[@rin9711]

[@giantclaw138]

I've looked forward to these vids for over a year! Well worth the wait!!

Every apartment of elders is watching this video on their thumb drives and when it shows the four brothers walking back to Jerusalem speculating about finding their wives and starting families, the most senior elder in the apartment will pat his greenie comp on the shoulder and say, "that's me in three months Elder".

Im so excited for the next episode😍

[@kupezoe1926]

It's so amazing

[@candisfirchau3810]

This is so nice!

I wish they would have shown the part where lehi told his sons to go get hooked up with women. It's the only time Lamen and Lemuel didn't complain about a commandment of the lord....
