Jeremiah prophesied that Israel would be gathered both physically and spiritually. God would bring them home from Babylon, and He would forgive their sins and renew His covenant with them. In the Book of Mormon, Jesus also connected the gathering of Israel with the renewal of their relationship with God.
The Redeemer Shall Come to Zion
Jesus promised to establish a New Jerusalem and to dwell there. Ether made a similar prophecy. Isaiah concludes his book by prophesying of the same events. The Redeemer will come to Zion, His glory will rest upon its inhabitants, and they will recognize Him as their Savior.
Isaiah 52: A Book of Mormon-Guided Reading
Isaiah 52 is pervasive in the Book of Mormon. Verses from the chapter are quoted or interpreted by Lehi, Nephi, Jacob, Abinadi, the Savior, Mormon, and Moroni. The fact that Moroni embeds references to Isaiah 52 in his final exhortation indicates that it is central to the Book of Mormon's invitation to come unto Christ.
He Hath Borne Our Griefs, and Carried Our Sorrows
Isaiah 50-55 appear frequently in the Book of Mormon. Lehi, Jacob, Abinadi, Alma, and Jesus all quote from these chapters. At the end of the book, Moroni again alludes to them, as if to remind the reader that they contain the heart of the Book of Mormon message.
God Is My Salvation
The Book of Mormon teaches us to study the book of Isaiah. Nephi quoted Isaiah to teach his readers about Christ. Rather than search for prophecies of specific events, we should look for the mission of Jesus in the broad sweep of Isaiah's messages.
Multiplying Bread
Elijah and Elisha miraculously expanded food supplies. So did the Savior, as recorded in both the Bible and the Book of Mormon. We can learn two lessons from these miracles: (1) God can provide for our needs, and (2) just as the Savior can provide physical food, He is the source of our spiritual sustenance.
The Musician King
King David expressed his love for God through music. Book of Mormon prophets also emphasized worship through music. Alma associated conversion with "[singing] redeeming love." Singing requires us to overcome our self-consciousness and prioritize our love for God over our concern for what others maythink.
Him Shall Ye Hear in All Things
Moses prophesied that God would send a Prophet whom the people should hear. Nephi quoted this passage, identifying the Prophet as Jesus, and adding that we should hear Him "in all things whatsoever he shall say." We are accountable for how we respond to His commandments.
Beware Lest Thou Forget the Lord
At the end of Moses's life, he delivered a series of discourses to prepare his people to enter their promised land. Book of Mormon prophets quote from these sermons, applying them to their own people and to us. Moses's words in Deuteronomy can help us prepare to enter our promised lands.
Bread from Heaven
God promised Israel "bread from heaven." The Israelites called it "manna," which means "what is it?" It sustained them for forty years, but as Jesus explained, this bread was symbolic of the true Bread, which offers us eternal life. Each week, as we partake of the sacrament, we remember Him, our Bread from heaven.
