My Daily Read

I was not aware that Lehi and his family new when to expect the savior. In 1Nephi 10 it is recorded that the Messiah would come 600 years after Lehi and his family left Jerusalem. I always thought that those that lived before the birth of Christ never had much of a "light at the end of the tunnel" when it came to knowing with the Savior would come. It meant they had a tougher time with with faith and hope. But that wasn't true. They had an easier time, in my opinion, as they could have listened to the prophets and knew with more of a time line as to when to expect the Savior. We only have signs.
