2 Nephi 14:2
Reference Search: 2 Nephi 14:2
2 In that day shall the branch of the Lord be beautiful and glorious; the fruit of the earth excellent and comely to them that are escaped of Israel.
Quote for Discussion
“The days come, saith the Lord, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch [LDS Bible footnote b says “Jesus Christ”], and a King shall reign and prosper” (Jeremiah 23:5).
In another sense, the “branch” could represent dispersed remnants of the house of Israel who have been redeemed and brought back to the glory of the Lord. (See Isa. 60:21; 61:3; 2 Ne. 3:5; Jacob 2:25.)
