- What lessons are you learning about murmuring? Can you think of times when you have lacked faith and murmured? How can these challenges be faced in future?
- All the men in this family were face with the say problem of providing food for their families. Why was Nephi the scapegoat?
- What do we learn about anger from Laman and Lemuel that we can apply to ourselves?
- What lessons of faith do we learn from Nephi's actions when his family was hungry?

Week 6
This week we are reading to page 35 in the Book of Mormon. Nephi finishes going over what he learned about the Tree of Life vision with his brothers. Marriages take place between Ishmael's family and Lehi's family. The Lord gives them a Liahona to direct them that works according to their faith. Again, a lot of murmuring takes place. Nephi's bow breaks and other bows lose their spring and the people are hungry.

I thought it interesting how God blessed Zoram for his faithfulness and integrity to God and obedience to Nephi's direction. In CH. 16 vs. 7 it states ,"Zoram took the eldest daughter of Ishmael to wife." In Jewish tradition when 'daughters' are married off collectively the first born had a dowry nearly as large as the rest of her siblings combined. Zoram received the biggest piece of cake.
To me equally as incitefull... Zoram taking a wife was miraculous, he was a servant to laban.. He should have gotten a servant wife.. So yes he was very blessed..
