The Book of Ether finally gave the account of the Jaredite plates that were discovered by Limhi and kept secret. My oh my did it get really dark, lonely and sad at the end there. Similarly to the loneliness that Moroni has to be feeling as he writes this record being the last of his kind.

Finished the “Book of Mormon” within the Book of Mormon. This got really bleak really fast. You really feel for the loneliness and isolation of Moroni after what befell his people. But truth be told he and his father were alone before that due to just how evil the people around them had become.

Helaman was more history and if I remember right a lot of wars. 3 Nephi was quite interesting for its after the crucifixion and a great destruction throughout the land and Jesus shows himself to the remnant nation. It parrots a lot of his teachings from the Bible. A lot of time spent in the year 34 just to hop into short 4 Nephi and cover 300 years worth of quick corruption. Still curious about the 3 immortal men.

Just finished Alma. The longest book in this whole selection. Can’t possibly recount all it covered but there sure were a lot of wars where Moroni was as the real MVP freedom lover. But by the timeline we are ever closer to the first coming of Christ.

Finishing Mosiah and going into Alma. Intermingled with the occasional update on the historical progress of these civilizations is a LOT of repetition of the things we already know from the actual Bible related to all the events associated with the first coming of Christ and the end days or latter days as it’s called here. They are nothing if not consistent haha.

Finished Omni and the words of Mormon. So far there’s really a knack for restating the same prophesies over and over again. There was an interesting time jump to A. D. that seemed pretty dire before hopping back to B. C. So let’s just see where this goes.
