Book of Mormon Haiku

1st Nephi Chapter 10

Savior, Redeemer

from Foundation of the world

Both Gentile and Jew

1 Nephi 10 - Lehi predicts the Babylonian captivity; He tells of the coming among the Jews of a Messiah, a Savior, a Redeemer; He tells also of the coming of the one who should baptize the Lamb of God; Lehi tells of the death and resurrection of the Messiah; He compares the scattering and gathering of Israel to an olive tree; Nephi speaks of the Son of God, of the gift of the Holy Ghost, and of the need for righteousness.

The Savior was anointed at a place and time long before the birth of nations.  By the power of the Holy Ghost, through faith on the Son of God, all the sons of Adam and all the daughters of Eve have access to revelation and salvation. Worlds without end.
