I have a personal connection to the first chapter of 2 Nephi. During my divorce I was feeling discouraged, distraught and a failure. Reading this chapter in the Book of Mormon verse five was a lightening bolt to my heart and mind. The spirit spoke to me, Jeff yes your marriage is lost but if you keep your covenants I will give you a new marriage, a new inheritance a new family. 35 years later my second wife and I have 23 grandkids from our 7 combined step children. I dont know how the sealing power works with step children, but we are family. This is a prophecy fullfilled.
I loved this lesson! The only negative is refuting something I hear all the time, calling the United States a democracy. The founders set this nation up as a Democratic Republic through divine guidance. Huge difference! Thank you for your time helping me think more deeply about the scriptures!
I actually watched the 2nd part first, about calming anxiety, and I think it was perhaps the most spiritually therapeutic lessons, but I do have dust that I need to rise from. I want to come to Christ! I don't want to be double minded or worldly! Whoa, I have lots of work to do, but on the other hand, I have made great progress, so my local leaders have been saying, and I believe and appreciate them! I am thankful for my testimony.
I ❤️ the Book of Mormon another testament of Jesus Christ, and the things I'm learning, especially from other inspired sources. Jarred's excitement, is palpably, CONTAGIOUS! 😆. The spirit speaks the truth of these things, directly to my ❤️! "Zion. Its a lifestyle." I'm working on living my best Zion lifestyle in my Christ centered home, thinking Celestially. #GiveThanks
I appreciate the insights of Lehi regarding his sons at the end of his life. He loved and taught to the end. This gives me hope as a parent and grandparent how to work with my family.
Brother Halverson: Thank you so much for your in-depth teaching of the Book of Mormon. It is exactly what I need at this time in my life. I love the way you tie everything together in a nice, neat package that I can understand and carry in my heart.
Thank you for getting me in the scriptures this week! I have loved underlining all the red words and following along with each verse! This makes me so happy!
Brother Halverson, I just wanted to say thanks again. I watch your videos and listen to your Podcasts. Either way, I sometimes end up listening two or three times because if I start on RUclips and continue on podcast when I am on the go. But then I go back to the video and continue from where I left of and then go back to the podcast. It is so good to have both versions. I even joined Instagram to see what is being presented there but I don't follow those quite so much (yet). May the blessings from above pour on you and your family for your work in the Gathering of Israel!
The prophet has asked us to seek miracles and recognize miracles and I am doing that so often it’s incredulous ! I’m so very grateful that as a Latter Day Saint in these last days I’m having so many joyous miracles that my faith is expanded and yet I make mistakes and continue forward and then again I see miracles ..
Having viewed part two of 2 Nephi before part one I am❤ so grateful for what I learned from your skillful teachings from My❤ personal❤ favorite Book Of Scripture about the grace offered to Us through Jesus Christ. ❤Watching the updates I'm also grateful for your honesty and family's long suffering {😊} and devotion! Bless you!❤I can't say thank you enough! "Success is not final, failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts."- Winston Churchill
I love your videos! Thank you for your time and helping us learn more about the scriptures😊 I have a quick question I’m looking for videos like this in Spanish for my mom any recommendations?
I love your vides so much! I have a question for you: Will you be doing the entire Book of Mormon this year with new videos or will you stop when you get to where the old ones started? Either way, I'm looking forward to learning with you. God bless you and your family, dear brother!
Having an attitude of six months is dangerous. At some point the six months will end, and if we are not awake and listening to and following the prophet it will be a sad day.
When it started that anyone who comes to the land of promise will come by God’s will (paraphrasing); the thought occurred to me that it may not be by migration alone but also by birth
Brother Halverson, thank you for your time and insights. It has helped me deep dive into new understanding. Just a quick mention, the US is not a democracy it is a Constitutional Republic.
36:02 I'm struggling with what you're saying. I'm sure there's a meaning more than what I'm hearing, but what I'm trying to figure out is what you're referring to as "armor", because we certainly don't have to be perfect or take off every last piece of bad before we try and be good. Trying means we aren't perfect but we're trying, and I know you aren't trying to say that we need to be perfect before we try to put on righteousness, but the way the metaphor is used that's what my mind wants to think (which I won't let happen).
I’m surprisingly, but absolutely, loving that you can’t seem to shorten up each week’s lesson. I laughed at the combined 2+ hours for this week’s 2 chapter lesson. Also, “Alcoholics Anonymous” in the upper right hand corner?🤔
Bro. Halverson, I don't expect you to answer this question. But I would love your opinion. Those verses in 2 Nephi:1, refer to a "promised land", "a land of liberty," etc. I have listened and read about both sides about where the BofM georgraphy is. Both have good points. But this doesn't seem to fit the meso America theory. It fits more into the Heartland theory. The United States is the land of liberty. What are your thoughts?
From your words in this lecture one might get the impression that the land of promise only applies to the United States. It's understandable, but the other american countries are also promised land to Lehi's descendant and those who covenant with the Lord. Or am I wrong?
I’m liking you better. Some of your words convict me; that’s my reward for enduring your presentation mannerisms - no offense. I’m probably being converted to the gospel of Jesus Christ as revealed through the great prophet of the restoration. The Book of Mormon is the word of GOD, I know it.
If you don’t like someone’s mannerisms, don’t you know it’s bad manners to mention them ?? ??? Do you want people to tell you they don’t like your mannerisms? It’s what makes us individuals.
I have been watching Brother Halverson for over 3 years now. I was baptized in 2020 and he has helped me immensely learning the scriptures. I appreciate his knowledge and mannerisms. His passion and enthusiasm is what makes him unique. I truly hope you realize what a true blessing Brother Halverson is and how fortunate we are to learn from him.
How about we focus on, ‘your words convict me’ ‘I am being converted’ I can very much appreciate your defense of our Brother Jared Hal but I am sure he is more appreciative that one of his brothers, brethren is coming unto Christ and receiving truth.
I chose Brother Halverson of all the options because of his wonderful presentation style. I am in awe that he can keep my attention for so long. I could never talk for so long and be so interesting. My teenage kids are captivated as well.
“…led by the hand of the Lord”. I wonder if there are those led by Satan meaning drug traffickers or human traffickers. Those do not seem to be led by the hand of the Lord

Love your teachings about the promised land!( It lead me to the topic Holy Places)
Hosanna!!!

In His time❤

Freedom is the word of my generation, but freedom is earned!
Only truth will set us free.

❤ hold on to your precious testimony. Continue all you can😁 to make it grow
I love the lesson Lehi teaches with inagery if things that can encircle us. It can be chains or it can be the love of God (his armor).
I ❤️ the Book of Mormon another testament of Jesus Christ, and the things I'm learning, especially from other inspired sources.

As always, thank you so much for your willingness to help us understand the scriptures better. I appreciate your insights and teachings.
🙏Thank you! From Wenatchee WA!
An alarm clock that says “Think Celestial” I would love it! ❤
Thank you for sharing your time with us and walking us through the Book of Mormon.
I think you could do it on your phone!
Great, now I have to make a ring tone with the "Think Celestial" and make a set of second set of alarms to have that as my ring tone lol
I'm so glad you mentioned that painting- I have always wondered the meaning behind it! Also, I like that you split the videos into 2 parts. Thanks!
I read verses 24-29 as Heavenly Father speaking to me of Christ. That is humbling.
Thank you, Jared. 50 minutes, I hungered for more 😊

Good morning ❤
Beautiful week and Great book 📖 and love studying 1:25
Such great explanations and insight. I have enjoyed being unshaken since the beginning of our come follow me.
The prophet has asked us to seek miracles and recognize miracles and I am doing that so often it’s incredulous !
I’m so very grateful that as a Latter Day Saint in these last days I’m having so many joyous miracles that my faith is expanded and yet I make mistakes and continue forward and then again I see miracles ..
🎉yes🎉 it is True❤ Miracles upon Miracles❤
Sir your shirt is lovely it's color is unique.
Thank you for the great lesson today. I never knew the name of the brother of Jared before until I heard you say it.

I love listening to you each week, and learn so much from you.
I love your vides so much! I have a question for you: Will you be doing the entire Book of Mormon this year with new videos or will you stop when you get to where the old ones started? Either way, I'm looking forward to learning with you. God bless you and your family, dear brother!
Intimate in Infinity... beautiful
The law goes out from Zion (constitution etc) and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem (Bible, Lehi/Nephi etc). Just a thought.
I.love.my.chuch.so.much ❤❤❤
😆❤️🙋♀️I do too!

Would your daughter be willing to sell prints of that painting? I LOVE the truths it so beautifully captures.

Zoram non-Israelite? I thought it was just slaves who were non-Israelites?
I thought Zoran was Labans servant/slave...
Alma would not have had access to Lehi’s teachings to expound upon them? He must have gotten these teachings the same way Levi did - Revelation.

I’ve been appreciative of Bro Hal since the beginning of his channe four years ago. Love his content. And, be nice. Thank you.

Satan is always trying to sneak his minions into Holy Places.
