One night, Lehi had a dream about a tree with delicious white fruit. In the dream, he invited his family to come try the fruit, and everyone except Laman and Lemuel did. He saw an iron rod going along the bank of a river and leading to the tree, and many people followed the rod through dark mists to get to the tree. There was also a building full of people making fun of the people who were trying to get to the tree. Nephi doesn't give us all the details of the dream (or of anything else) because we're reading the short version of his history. He wrote the full version in a different book (which we don't have).
