Golan Heights, biblical Bashan (BiblePlaces.com)

Golan Heights (Biblical Bashan) Also known as Batanea, Gaulanitis, Geshur, Karnaim
		Cows of Bashan, Oaks of Bashan Cattle have been raised in this area, in ancient times as well as today. Both beef and dairy cattle are currently raised in the Golan Heights. In biblical times, this area (known as Bashan) was known for its cattle and its oak trees. Amos 4:1-2 (NASB) “Hear this word, you cows of Bashan..." (cf. Ps 22:12). Zechariah 11:2 (KJV) “Howl, fir tree; for the cedar is fallen; because the mighty are spoiled: howl, O ye oaks of Bashan; for the forest of the vintage is come down” (cf. Isa 2:13).

Who wrote 1 Nephi & 2 Nephi? How much did they write?

I read all of 1 Nephi and 2 Nephi and marked down who wrote each chapter. Nephi often quotes Lehi and Isaiah. Jacob quotes Isaiah too. Interesting that Nephi only wrote half of the 2 books named after him. We really don't have much of Nephi's writings. I wish we could read the large plates of Nephi. I logged each writer by chapter. It would be another project to log by words, which would be more accurate since all the chapters are not uniform in length.

It took me about an hour to navigate Excell 2000 until I could get it to make this lovely pie chart with the labels. I am so pleased with it!
