“I Give Unto You This Land”

Bryan Richards

In discussing the events of the last days, the Savior divides his remarks into three sections. The first, verses 14-28, is addressed primarily to those of the New World: the kingdom of God in the latter days, the Gentiles of the New World, and the New Jerusalem. The second section, verses 29-35, is addressed to those of the Old World: the restoration of Jerusalem and the conversion of some of the Old World Jews. The third section, verses 36-46, is addressed to those on both sides of the Atlantic: to those of the house of Israel, whether adopted or not, whether New World or Old World. This key has important implications, particularly for understanding the prophecies related to the first section.
