Come Follow Me Insights (1 Nephi 8–10)
SUMMARY
- Lehi's dream is broken down, focusing on the symbolism of the Tree of Life and the large and spacious building, representing good and evil respectively.
- The man in a white robe is analyzed, considering if he is a symbol of Christ accompanying us through dark and dreary phases of life.
- They reflect on the path, the rod, and the tree, all as symbols for Christ and how they relate to John 14:6.
- The proximity of the rod of iron to the river of filthy water is explained as a loving design by God to help us return easily to the covenant path.
