“The Lord Hath Redeemed My Soul from Hell”

D. Kelly Ogden, Andrew C. Skinner

It is clear that Lehi knew his calling and election—his citizenship in God’s eternal kingdom—had been made sure; he was sealed up to exaltation. Compare other such declarations among his posterity: Jacob (2 Nephi 2:3); Enos (Enos 1:27); Alma I (Mosiah 26:20); Alma II (Alma 36:28); Mormon (Mormon 2:19); and Moroni (Ether 12:37). See also commentary at Alma 36:28.
