Lehi Blesses Joseph | 2 Nephi 3:3–15 | Book of Mormon
“Lehi, a Book of Mormon prophet, explains his lineage to his son Joseph, which lineage includes Joseph of Egypt. He also reveals that Joseph of Egypt prophesied of Joseph Smith, a latter-day seer.
Based on 2 Nephi 3:3–4, 6, 9, 15:
3 And now, Joseph, my last-born, whom I have brought out of the wilderness of mine afflictions, may the Lord bless thee forever, for thy seed shall not utterly be destroyed.
4 For behold, thou art the fruit of my loins; and I am a descendant of Joseph who was carried captive into Egypt. And great were the covenants of the Lord which he made unto Joseph.
6 For Joseph truly testified, saying: A seer shall the Lord my God raise up, who shall be a choice seer unto the fruit of my loins.
9 And he shall be great like unto Moses, whom I have said I would raise up unto you, to deliver my people, O house of Israel.
15 And his name shall be called after me; and it shall be after the name of his father. And he shall be like unto me; for the thing, which the Lord shall bring forth by his hand, by the power of the Lord shall bring my people unto salvation.
