“Ye Remnant of the House of Israel”
Like the title page of the Book of Mormon, this chapter serves as a sort of summary statement, a comprehensive picture of what matters to the Nephite prophet-writers. So far as we can tell, this chapter would represent Mormon’s final offering, his last counsel to the people of the last days, a message which is brief but all-encompassing. It distills into ten short verses what will surely prove to be timely and timeless directives, pertinent warnings for the people of the last days.
