Women in the Book of Mormon

    1 Nephi

  1. "I beheld a virgin, and whe was exceedingly fair and white."
    Nephi sees an exceedingly white virgin. But how the hell would Nephi know that the exceedingly white woman was a virgin? I guess Nephi could spot a virgin from 400 kilometers away. 11:13

  2. Nephi, his brothers, and Zoram (Laban's servant) all got married to Ishmael's nameless daughters. It was a group wedding with Lehi serving as the Reverend Moon, saying stuff like, "Do you [Nephi, Laman, Lemuel, Sam, Zoram] take what's her name here to be your lawfully wedded wife?" 16:7

  3. They waded through much affliction and their nameless women bore children in the wilderness. 17:1b

    2 Nephi

  4. When women are allowed to rule, everything goes to hell in a hand basket. 13:12

  5. God will "smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion" and "will discover their secret parts" since he doesn't like the way they dress and walk. 13:16-17

  6. Here is a clear prophecy of the future Mormon church: "And in that day, seven women shall take hold of one man, saying: let us be called by thy name to take away our reproach." 14:1

  7. After God "washed away the filth" from the women and killed the men, he set up "a cloud and smoke by day" and a "flaming fire by night." 14:4-5

    Jacob

  8. God delights in the chastity of women. 2:28
