House of Joseph
Holy city |
8 |
Wherefore, the remnant of the house of Joseph shall be built
upon this land; and it shall be a land of their inheritance; and they shall
build up a holy city unto the Lord, like unto the Jerusalem of old; and
they shall no more be confounded, until the end come when the earth shall
pass away. |
|
Ether 13:8–11 |
| New heaven, new earth |
9 |
And there shall be a new heaven and a new earth; and they
shall be like unto the old save the old have passed away, and all things
have become new. |
|

New Jerusalem
|
10 |
And then cometh the New Jerusalem; and blessed are they
who dwell therein, for it is they whose garments are white through the
blood of the Lamb; and they are they who are numbered among the remnant
of the seed of Joseph, who were of the house of Israel. |
|
|
| Jews |
11 |
And then also cometh the Jerusalem of old; and the inhabitants
thereof, blessed are they, for they have been washed in the blood of
the Lamb; and they are they who were scattered and gathered in from the
four quarters of the earth, and from the north countries, and are partakers
of the fulfilling of the covenant which God made with their father, Abraham. |

24 |
And as surely as the Lord liveth, will he gather in from the four quarters
of the earth all the remnant of the seed of Jacob, who are
scattered abroad upon all the face of the earth. |
|
3 Nephi 5:24–26 |
| Restore House of Jacob |
25 |
And as he hath covenanted with all the house
of Jacob, even so shall the covenant wherewith he hath covenanted with
the house of Jacob be fulfilled in his own due time, unto the restoring
all the house of Jacob unto the knowledge of the covenant that he hath
covenanted with them. |
|
|
| Gather from all over |
26 |
And then shall they know their Redeemer, who is Jesus Christ,
the Son of God; and then shall they be gathered in from the four quarters
of the earth unto their own lands, from whence they have been dispersed;
yea, as the Lord liveth so shall it be. Amen. |

… if it so be that my people at Jerusalem
… do not ask the Father in my name, that they may receive a knowledge
of you by the Holy Ghost, and also of the other tribes whom they know not
of, that these sayings which ye shall write shall be kept and shall be
manifested unto the Gentiles, that through the fulness of the Gentiles,
the remnant of their seed, who shall be scattered forth upon the face of
the earth because of their unbelief, may be brought in, or may be brought
to a knowledge of me, their Redeemer. |
|
3 Nephi 16:4–20 |
| From all over |
5 |
And then will I gather them in from the four
quarters of the earth; and then will I fulfill the covenant which the Father
hath made unto all the people of the house of Israel. |
|
|
| Gentiles blessed |
6 |
And blessed are the Gentiles, because of their
belief in me, in and of the Holy Ghost, which witnesses unto them of me
and of the Father. |
|
|
| Bring forth truth |
7 |
Behold, because of their belief in me, saith the Father,
and because of the unbelief of you, O house of Israel, in the latter
day shall the truth come unto the Gentiles, that the fulness of these
things shall be made known unto them. |

Woe to unbelieving Gentiles
Gentiles trample on [Indians] |
8 |
But wo, saith the Father, unto the unbelieving
of the Gentiles—for notwithstanding they have come forth upon the face
of this land, and have scattered my people who are of the house of Israel;
and my people who are of the house of Israel have been cast out from among
them, and have been trodden under feet by them; |
|
|
| [Indians] despised by Gentiles |
9 |
…and I have caused my people who are of the house of Israel to be
smitten, and to be afflicted, and to be slain, and to be cast out from
among them, and to become hated by them, and to become a hiss and a byword
among them— |
|
|
| Gospel taken from Gentiles |
10 |
…At that day when the Gentiles shall sin against my gospel,
and shall reject the fulness of my gospel, …
I will bring the fulness of my gospel from among them. |
|
|
| Gospel to [Indians] |
11 |
And then will I remember my covenant which I
have made unto my people, O house of Israel, and I will bring my gospel
unto them. |
|
|
| Fullness of gospel to [Indians] |
12 |
And I will show unto thee, O house of Israel,
that the Gentiles shall not have power over you; but I will remember my
covenant unto you, O house of Israel, and ye shall come unto the knowledge
of the fulness of my gospel. |
|
|
| Believing Gentiles among Israel |
13 |
But if the Gentiles will repent and return unto
me, saith the Father, behold they shall be numbered among my people, O
house of Israel. |
|
|
| [Indians] won't kill believers |
14 |
And I will not suffer my people, who are of
the house of Israel, to go through among them, and tread them down, saith
the Father. |
|
|
| Unless they don't repent |
15 |
But if they will not turn unto me, and hearken unto my voice,
I will suffer them, yea, I will suffer my people, O house of Israel, that
they shall go through among them, and shall tread them down, and they shall
be as salt that hath lost its savor, which is thenceforth good for nothing
but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of my people, O house
of Israel. |
|
|
| This land an inheritance |
16 |
Verily, verily, I say unto you, thus hath the Father commanded
me—that I should give unto this people this land for their inheritance. |
|
|
| Isaiah |
17 |
And then the words of the prophet Isaiah shall be fulfilled,
which say: |
|
|
| Bring again Zion |
18 |
Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together
shall they sing, for they shall see eye to eye when the Lord shall bring
again Zion. |
|
|
| Jerusalem redeemed |
19 |
Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of
Jerusalem; for the Lord hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed Jerusalem. |
|
|
| Ends of the earth |
20 |
The Lord hath made bare his holy arm in the eye of all the
nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of God. |

3 Nephi 20:14– 22 |
| Unrepentant Gentiles |
15 |
And I say unto you, that if the Gentiles do not repent after
the blessing which they shall receive, after they have scattered my people— |
|
|
| To be destroyed by [Indians] |
16 |
Then shall ye, who are a remnant of the house of Jacob,
go forth among them; and ye shall be in the midst of them who shall be
many; and ye shall be among them as a lion among the beasts of the forest,
and as a young lion among the flocks of sheep, who, if he goeth through
both treadeth down and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver. |
|
|
| |
17 |
Thy hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries, and
all thine enemies shall be cut off. |
|
|
| Lord will gather his people |
18 |
And I will gather my people together as a man gathereth
his sheaves into the floor. |
|
|
| According to covenant, blessings |
19 |
For I will make my people with whom the Father hath covenanted,
yea, I will make thy horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass. And thou
shalt beat in pieces many people; and I will consecrate their gain unto
the Lord, and their substance unto the Lord of the whole earth. And behold,
I am he who doeth it. |
|
|
| Sword of justice |
20 |
And it shall come to pass, saith the Father, that the sword
of my justice shall hang over them at that day; and except they repent
it shall fall upon them, saith the Father, yea, even upon all the nations
of the Gentiles. |
|
|
| House of Israel |
21 |
And it shall come to pass that I will establish my people,
O house of Israel. |
|
|
| New Jerusalem, power |
22 |
And behold, this people will I establish in this land, unto
the fulfilling of the covenant which I made with your father Jacob; and
it shall be a New Jerusalem. And the powers of heaven shall be in the midst
of this people; yea, even I will be in the midst of you. |

Gathered out of captivity,
lands of inheritance
Out of obscurity and darkness |
12 |
Wherefore, he will bring them again out of captivity, and
they shall be gathered together to the lands of their inheritance; and
they shall be brought out of obscurity and out of darkness; and they shall
know that the Lord is their Savior and their Redeemer, the Mighty One of
Israel. |

| One fold, one shepherd |
25 |
And he gathereth his children from the four quarters of
the earth; and he numbereth his sheep, and they know him; and there shall
be one fold and one shepherd; and he shall feed his sheep, and in him they
shall find pasture. |
|
1 Nephi 22:25–26 |
Satan restrained
Lord reigns |
26 |
And because of the righteousness of his people, Satan has

he hath no power over the hearts of the people, for they dwell in righteousness,
and the Holy One of Israel reigneth. |

Come to knowledge of Redeemer, gather |
11 |
Wherefore, after they are driven to and fro, for thus saith
the angel, many shall be afflicted in the flesh, and shall not be suffered
to perish, because of the prayers of the faithful; they shall be scattered,
and smitten, and hated; nevertheless, the Lord will be merciful unto them,
that when they shall come to the knowledge of their Redeemer, they shall
be gathered together again to the lands of their inheritance. |
|
2 Nephi 6:11–12 |
| Blessed Gentiles (except great and abominable
church) |
12 |
And blessed are the Gentiles, they of whom the prophet has
written; for behold, if it so be that they shall repent and fight not against
Zion, and do not unite themselves to that great and abominable church,
they shall be saved; for the Lord God will fulfil his covenants which he
has made unto his children; and for this cause the prophet has written
these things. |

until the time comes that they shall be restored to the true church and

and shall be established in all their lands of promise |

And it shall come to pass that my people, which are of the
