27 And he meaneth that it shall come by way of the Gentiles, that the Lord may shew his power unto the Gentiles, for the very cause that he shall be rejected of the Jews, or of the house of Israel:
28 Wherefore, our father hath not spoken of our seed alone, but also of all the house of Israel, pointing to the covenant which should be fulfilled in the latter days;
29 Which covenant the Lord made to our father Abraham, saying, In thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.
30 And it came to pass that I, Nephi, spake much unto them concerning these things;
31 Yea, I spake unto them concerning the restoration of the Jews, in the latter days;
32 And I did rehearse unto them the words of Isaiah, who spake concerning the restoration of the Jews, or of the house of Israel;
33 And after they were restored, they should no more be confounded, neither should they be scattered again.
34 And it came to pass that I did speak many words unto my brethren, that they were pacified, and did humble themselves before the Lord.
35 And it came to pass that they did speak unto me again, saying, What meaneth this thing which our father saw in a dream?
36 What meaneth the tree which he saw?
37 And I said unto them, It was a representation of the tree of life.
