Nephi’s Trial
Part of:
Nephi’s Preaching and Prophesies
Despite the opposition by the five men, Nephi is bound and brought before the people.
The legal officials question him, and even try to bribe him into confessing.
Nephi rebukes them, then tells them to go see Seantum, the brother of the chief judge, who is the true murderer; he will deny it, but will confess when his brother’s blood is found on his clothes.
The people go to Seantum, and he responds just as Nephi said he would—Nephi is set free.
Many people begin to believe Nephi and esteem him highly.
The crowd disperses, and Nephi is left alone.
