FIRST NEPHI / CHAPTER 4
The fruit and the audience
Lehi dreams of the tree of life; an excellent fruit is almost replaced by an excellent account of having tasted it.
Passage actions

The tree and its fruit.
Passage actions
1 And I shit you not, Lehi dreamed a dream in which he found a tree of life beside a river, and its branches bore fruit without a department to approve the crop.
Passage actions
2 He drew near and tasted; and the fruit was sweet, and he was glad before he had determined what the gladness established.
Passage actions
3 Then he called to Sariah, and to Laman, Lemuel, Sam, and Nephi, saying: Come and try this.
Passage actions
4 Sariah asked whether he was offering breakfast or requiring an interpretation.
Passage actions
5 Lehi considered. Breakfast, he said, might be a good beginning.

6 And they approached, each according to willingness; but a herald from the great and spacious building arrived first with a register.
Passage actions
7 Upon it were columns for who had tasted, how sincerely they had tasted, and whether they had used the approved words afterward.
Passage actions
8 The herald asked Lehi to describe the fruit before eating any more of it.
