Scripture Blog

This weblog is my personal online scripture journal. I try to read the scriptures each morning as I exercise on my cross-trainer. It has a great impact on my life and my testimony of the Savior and his restored church. The journal is really for my own benefit but I have set it up as a web log in hopes to benefit anyone else that may be interested. "For he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the Holy Ghost..." 1 Nephi 10:19

3 Nephi 10

I find it interesting that after the people in the land heard the voice of the Savior and before his appearance - 

"...there was silence in the land for the space of many hours;

2 For so great was the astonishment of the people that they did cease lamenting and howling for the loss of their kindred which had been slain; therefore there was silence in all the land for the space of many hours."  (3 Nephi 10:1–2)

We know just before His second coming that - 

"...there shall be silence in heaven for the space of half an hour..."  (Doctrine and Covenants 88:95)

It seems to me that this is a sign of humility and pondering.
