During 1988, 1989, and 1990, Hugh Nibley taught Honors Book of Mormon classes for four semesters at Brigham Young University. The lectures were video-taped and audio cassettes and printed transcripts were made of the lectures. We believe these recordings will be interesting to listen to and valuable to your Come, Follow Me study program this year. Each week, we will include the lectures covering the Book of Mormon chapters being studied that week.
This week, we have lectures 18 and 19, covering 2 Nephi 3-8 and 2 Nephi 9, respectively.
Note: Nibley did not have any lectures covering chapters 10 through 24 of 2 Nephi, so there will not be a post next week.
All 112 lectures are immediately available in PDF, audio, video, and electronic formats, as well as in paperback books that are available for purchase. Links for all of the available online sources can be found in the Complete Bibliography for Hugh Nibley at https://dev.interpreterfoundation.org/bibliographies/hugh-w-nibley/lectures/.
Lecture 18: Book of Mormon—2 Nephi 3—8. [repeat from last week]
Also called “Lehi’s Family: Blessings and Conflict.“ 2 Nephi 3 is a genealogical chapter, and it has strange phenomena in it which occur in genealogy all the time.

Lecture 19: Book of Mormon—2 Nephi 9, The Atonement and Judgment
Also called “Jacob’s Teachings on the Atonement and Judgment.“ The Book of Mormon was hand-delivered by an angel. There’s every evidence that it was, so let’s look at it.
