10:54 Pride – Insightful & unique commentary on pride 54:55 Plural Marriage – Helping you settle some issues with plural marriage in church history We discuss Jacob’s warnings about pride. Jacob teaches that the first step in pride is to see that we have more than others, then to make assumptions that we are better, then to persecute. We examine the antidotes to pride. Jacob teaches that immoral behavior breaks hearts. This article by John S.

Gardner gives historical examples of how the Nephites could fit into an Ancient American setting based on the issues faced in Jacob 2.
