that they are taught after the manner of the things of the Jews.
2 Nephi 25:6
6 But behold, I, Nephi, have not taught my children after the
manner of the Jews; but behold, I, of myself, have dwelt at
Jerusalem, wherefore I know concerning the regions round about;
and I have made mention unto my children concerning the judgments
of God, which hath come to pass among the Jews, unto my children,
according to all that which Isaiah hath spoken, and I do not
write them.
2 Nephi 25:7
7 But behold, I proceed with mine own prophecy, according to my
plainness; in the which I know that no man can err; nevertheless,
in the days that the prophecies of Isaiah shall be fulfilled men

2 Nephi 25:8

And notwithstanding they have been carried away they shall return

be restored again to the land of their inheritance.
2 Nephi 25:12

even the Father of heaven and of earth, shall manifest himself
unto them in the flesh, behold, they will reject him, because of
