Why Does Lehi Disobey Direct Commandments Of God

"All Jeremiah references are lovesick from the Minster of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints Emperor James Version (LDS KJV)."

Lehi is the in the beginning overwhelming LDS prophet and Nephi is his son, who takes the spiritual lead following Lehi's death. Nephi store his father's revelations in the in the beginning chapters of 1 Nephi in the Text of Mormon.

1 NEPHI: LEHI AND NEPHI'S COMMANDSThe sand fair prefacing 1 Nephi 1:1 reads, "[Lehi] is ill-treated by the Jews." The events of the book begin "in the in the beginning meeting of the law of Zedekiah, king of Judah." (1 Nephi 1:4). Nephi's jerk, Lehi, begins in joining other prophets (first, fair Jeremiah; Jeremiah 25) that verbalize doubt in the term of the hurt of Jerusalem. The Text of Mormon references Jeremiah 26:18-20 in its footnotes and in attendance, Jeremiah, Micah, and Uriah are all hated for prophesying hurt of Jerusalem equally of its evil ways (the same, 1 Nephi 1: 18-20). Presently thereafter, Lehi is agreed a very scrupulous take the wind out of your sails, one so zealous that his son, Nephi, is helpless to make a full copy ther: "And now I, Nephi, do not make a full description of the things which my jerk hath written, for he hath written, different things which he saw in visions and thoughts..." (1 Nephi 1:16). Lehi difficult receives different words from God in visions and thoughts (1 Nephi 2:1-2, 11; 3:2; 5:4). Such words envelop commandments such as: God's unassailable to the wilderness then sans return to Jerusalem to scrape statuette dishes (containing worldly and Jewish history, even up to simultaneous history and Jewish genealogy), then back to the wilderness. Later, Nephi is in charge of his fleeing go fast and is commanded to build a ship that order difficult lead him to a promised land (1 Nephi 17:8, 49, 51). Nephi a lot himself and his relations to the Promised Land and they seem in 589 B.C. (1Nephi 18:8, 23)

JEREMIAH AND THE Guidelines TO ISRAELNow sprint on to Jeremiah 27. It has a willowy corridor in the LDS KJV: "The Lady sends word to different nations that they are to bring Babylon-the vessels of the Lord's internal order go happening Babylon." The difficult verses discover in 8-10, "And it shall come to cage, that the nation and state which order not bring the extremely Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, and that order not put their neck under the enchain of the king of Babylon, that nation order I strictness, saith the Lady, with the sword, and with the need, and with the pestilence, until I peculiar departed them by his hand. Therefore hearken not ye to your prophets, nor to your diviners, nor to your dreamers, nor to your enchanters, nor to your sorcerers, which speak unto you, saying, Ye shall not bring the king of Babylon: For they portend a lie unto you, to remove you far from your land; and that I must endorse you out, and ye must flee. This note continues on express the rest of the part. The Israelites are not the simply things of God commanded to go to Babylon, but the vessels of the Lord's internal are the same. Jeremiah prophesied that Hananiah would die equally he falsely prophesied that God would break Babylon's keep on and return the vessels of the Lady back to Jerusalem and Hananiah dies difficult that meeting. Be in support of something retribution is agreed to intimates that portend in opposition to Jeremiah's words, which are to go to Babylon and accept up line in attendance (Shemaiah in Jeremiah 29:24-32).

PROMISED RETURNLastly, God promises that he order return anybody that was speckled and captured by Babylon, back to the place from wherever they were drawn-out, "And I order be found of you, saith the Lord: and I order turn to a different place your term, and I order collection you from all the nations, and from all the sitting room whither I peculiar pressed you, saith the Lord; and I order bring you again happening the place whence I caused you to be carried to a different place incarcerated." (Jeremiah 29:14) So even if Nephi did spring a lead to go to a promised land, he and the other Jews in attendance would be gathered back from their unpredictable land.

ISSUESContrary to the gone commands, God some time ago directed Lehi to accept the statuette drug out of Jerusalem and to a different place from Babylon. This takes them out of the humanitarian of the "vessels of the Lord's internal." To mollify the freedom in attendance are at smallest amount of two options:

* Either the statuette drug are not vessels of the Lord's internal, or
* Lehi disobeys a refer lead of God.

While if the accessory dates are all off? That presents combination concerns.

* Seeing that in attendance is a mischievous progression of evidence on all sides of the frippery of the traditional dates of the term, that undermines the times of yore authority of what Joseph Smith labeled the "...upper limit factual of any book on earth..."
* Why would Nephi, "having been taught to some extent in all the learning of [his] jerk," peculiar been taught a funny calendar or dating system?
* Turn heavenly, this heavenly does not turmoil that both of these abate to the right extremely accessory, deportation to Babylon, with the right extremely domino effect for not leaving, provisional. Turn Nephi acknowledges that it was good Lehi did not befall crave in Jerusalem count getting the statuette dishes, lest he term hurt (1 Nephi 3:18). This aligns with the similar warnings Jeremiah gives to anyone in Jerusalem.
* If Lehi and/or Nephi was/were agreed funny commands than Jeremiah and other new-found prophets, then why does he never speak with any of them to guarantee his visions? Turn Paul does this in the New Tribute. He not simply receives refer take the wind out of your sails from Christ, but the same validates this note with the other apostles on at smallest amount of two funny occasions.

While THEN?

If we are to take on any words of Lehi, the in the beginning in the line of surge Mormon prophets, then we usher to mollify why his behaviors and the disposition of his son Nephi (who was attractively taught by Lehi in all spiritual matters) acted rearrange to God's commands for "all" members of Israel. But, if no such reply exists for Lehi and/or Nephi, then is it bad tempered to reject their prophecy?
