“Grafted In, or Come to the Knowledge of the True Messiah”
It takes prophets to understand prophets, revelation to understand revelation. Here we have the finest definition in the Book of Mormon of the word graft, particularly as that word is used in the allegory of the olive tree. For branches or groups of Israelites to be grafted into the natural see is for them to become true Israel; true covenant people through making sacred promises with him who is the mediator of the new and everlasting covenant. Identity with the King of Israel is far more critical than physical geography within the possessions of Israel.
