Lehi, a prophet in Jerusalem, receives direction from God that Jerusalem will be destroyed because of the wickedness of the people. He attempts to warn the citizens of Jerusalem, but they instead try to kill him. The Lord then directs Lehi to flee into the wilderness with his wife, Sariah, and his four sons—Laman, Lemuel, Sam, and Nephi. The Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ.

"Lehi, a prophet in Jerusalem, becomes troubled at what is happening in the world around him, so he seeks God's direction, and God answers his humble prayer. Based on 1 Nephi 1:4–6: 4 For it came to pass in the commencement of the first year of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah, (my father, Lehi, having dwelt at Jerusalem in all his days); and in that same year there came many prophets, prophesying unto the people that they must repent, or the great city Jerusalem must be destroyed. 5 Wherefore it came to pass that my father, Lehi, as he went forth prayed unto the Lord, yea, even with all his heart, in behalf of his people. 6 And it came to pass as he prayed unto the Lord, there came a pillar of fire and dwelt upon a rock before him; and he saw and heard much; and because of the things which he saw and heard he did quake and tremble exceedingly.

As a result of a dream, Lehi sends his sons back to Jerusalem to obtain sacred records on plates of brass from a wicked religious and military leader named Laban. Laban refuses to give up the records and steals Lehi's wealth when Laman attempts to use it to buy the plates. Laman and Lemuel rebel and beat their younger brothers—until an angel appears and saves them. Nephi miraculously obtains possession of the plates by following the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Lehi and Sariah are grateful and delighted when their sons return with the plates, and Lehi immediately begins to study their contents. Based on 1 Nephi 3–5.

The Lord reveals to Lehi that his sons should return to Jerusalem and enlist Ishmael's family in their journey so that those sons could marry Ishmael's daughters and have families. Ishmael's family consents to join them. Along the way, disagreements break out, and Laman and Lemuel lead a rebellion. They bind Nephi and leave him for wild animals to devour him, but Nephi is miraculously released. Laman and Lemuel repent, and the company completes their journey to join with Lehi and Sariah. Based on 1 Nephi 7.

In the wilderness, Lehi has a vision filled with symbolism that includes the tree of life. In his vision he struggles for some time in the dark before finally making his way to the tree. He eats or partakes of its fruit and desires his family to do likewise. He sees a rod of iron, a strait and narrow path, and the mists of darkness that enshroud men. Sariah, Nephi, and Sam eat the fruit, but Laman and Lemuel refuse. Based on 1 Nephi 8

After eight years in the wilderness, Lehi's growing family comes to a land near the sea. They call it Bountiful because of its abundant fruit and wild honey. Nephi hears the voice of the Lord commanding him to go up into the mountain to pray. There he receives a commandment from the Lord to build a ship to carry his people across the sea. Nephi prays to know where he might find ore to make tools to build the ship. He makes a bellows from animal skins and uses rocks to make fire. After crafting tools, he sets to work building the ship. When Laman and Lemuel discover what Nephi is doing, they call him a fool and criticize his efforts. He responds by recounting the history of God's dealings with their ancestors, the children of Israel, and reminds them that they themselves have seen an angel. As he speaks, Nephi is filled with the power of God, and Laman and Lemuel are afraid to contend against him for many days. The Lord speaks to Nephi and tells him to stretch forth his hand toward his brothers. He does so, and the Lord shocks them. Laman and Lemuel confess that they know the Lord is with Nephi. Lehi’s family finishes the ship and sets sail towards the promised land. Based on 1 Nephi 17–18.

Lehi's family continues their journey to the promised land. After days at sea, Nephi's brothers and the sons of Ishmael and their wives begin to offend the Spirit with inappropriate singing, dancing, and rude speech. When Nephi counsels them to stop for fear that the Lord will become angry with them, Laman and Lemuel take him and bind him with cords. The Liahona ceases to work, and a great storm beats against the ship for three days. On the fourth day, when Laman and Lemuel are certain they will be swallowed up by the storm, they begin to see that the judgments of God are upon them so they release Nephi. The Liahona begins to work again, and Nephi steers the ship toward the promised land. Lehi’s family arrives at the promised land. Based on 1 Nephi 18.

"Lehi, a Book of Mormon prophet, has a vision of the destruction of Jerusalem. He teaches that Jesus Christ is central to God’s plan of salvation. Those who are righteous and keep the commandments will be blessed. God allows for opposition in all things so that happiness, goodness, and righteousness can exist. We are free to choose eternal life and joy through following Jesus Christ. Lehi teaches his son Joseph about his lineage from Joseph of Egypt. He also reveals that Joseph of Egypt prophesied of Joseph Smith. Lehi blesses his family and tells them that their descendants will not perish but will ultimately be blessed. Based on 2 Nephi 1–4.
