1 Nephi 5-6
The Book of Mormon for Beginners
While Nephi and his brothers were in Jerusalem, their parents had a spat. Sariah was convinced that Laban had killed them, and she blamed Lehi and his visions. But when their sons return, and everybody celebrates and all's forgiven. After the celebration, Lehi looked at the record his sons got from Laban and found that it has all of the Jewish scriptures and history. From this, he learned that he was descended from Joseph (of amazing Technicolor dream coat fame). Lehi prophesied about his own descendants, but Nephi chooses to skip that in his record so he can focus on things that will be relevant to us.
