In this podcast we examine the Isaiah passages that Nephi inserts into the small plates. Why does Nephi put this material in the Book of Mormon? What does it mean to liken the words of Isaiah? (See 1 Nephi 19.23-24; 1 Nephi 22.8; 2 Nephi 6.5; 2 Nephi 11.2, 8.) We examine some of the political issues that Isaiah dealt with in his time period and then work to illustrate how these circumstances are similar to the Saints today.
