“Nephi as He Was Pouring Out His Soul Unto God Upon the Tower”

D. Kelly Ogden, Andrew C. Skinner

Nephi poured out his soul in fervent prayer on his garden tower and attracted a large group of people anxious to know what could cause a man to vent such grief and personal affliction. His lamenting earned him a captive audience. For more on pouring out our souls in prayer, see commentary at Enos 1:3–4; Mosiah 24:10–15; and 26:13–20.
