600 BC: The Departure of Lehi - A Landmark of Time

- $12.99
When the prophet Lehi fled Jerusalem around 600 BC, the wider world was in upheaval. This work reconstructs that pivotal moment by surveying eight contemporary civilizations—Judah, Israel, Assyria, Chaldea, Media, Egypt, Greece, and Rome—and the rulers who shaped them. Drawing on the Bible, Book of Mormon, and secular history, it frames Lehi's exodus alongside the fall of Nineveh, the Babylonian Captivity, Solon's reforms in Athens, and the founding of Rome, giving the Book of Mormon account a rich historical backdrop.
- What was happening in the rest of the world the night Lehi fled Jerusalem?
- Connects Book of Mormon chronology to the fall of Nineveh, Solon's Athens, and the founding of Rome
- Explores the mystery of the lost ten tribes and where scripture says they went
- Places Lehi as a contemporary of history's great figures—Nebuchadnezzar, Solon, and Tarquin
“Six hundred years before the birth of Christ, at a place near the city of Jerusalem, a man and his family began a historic journey.”
Perfect for an adult Latter-day Saint who loves scripture study and wants secular and biblical historical context for the opening chapters of the Book of Mormon.
