This article by Patrick Q. Mason examines one of the most literarily impressive passages of the Book of Mormon: 2 Nephi 4:16–35. These verses, often referred to as The Psalm of Nephi, have seen an increased focus over the last few decades, which Mason credits to its unique application to those in our modern world. Mason proposes that a general focus on pursuing happiness, navigating family anxieties, and living through intense divisiveness may account for why this particular portion of the Book of Mormon is so valuable to the modern reader, who likely struggles with the same burdens. He also stresses ways in which a fallible "protagonist" feels more approachable to readers, who connect with Nephi's own insecurity and despair. For myriad reasons, this inspiring portion of 2 Nephi has become a staple favorite for many members, and many important insights can be gleaned from studying it. CLICK HERE to Read the Article Online
