This is a project years in the making of some of the insights and comments I have about each chapter in the Book of Mormon. Come along for the journey.

2 Nephi Chapter 29
29:6-10 - "...I speak the same words unto one nation like unto another..."
God can and does speak to more than one nation, more than one people, and more than one time period. He can speak to whomever He wants, whenever He wants, and He does it. We must always be ready to listen in whatever circumstance, whatever the message. Then we must go and do. That may be one reason why people say that God does not talk today...because if He did, they would have to do something about it.
29:8,12 - "...I shall speak unto the Jews...the Nephites...all nations of the earth and they shall write it..."
The Lord speaks to us. The fact that He talked to the Nephites and Jews shows that He will talk to us (vs. 8). We can have faith in Him and work to apply what we are told so the Lord can bless us with His Spirit and further knowledge and light. We act in faith, and receive in trust.
29:11-14 - "...and they shall write it..."
We will have the scriptures from not only the Jews and Nephites, but also all the lost 10 tribes. I think it will be one record and not 10, but we'll see how it comes about. We will just need to take and receive those words as well...learning and applying them.
