In the period following the death of the prophet Lehi, his daughters are briefly mentioned in the context of the family’s division and subsequent migration led by Nephi, one of Lehi’s sons. While their exact names and number are not detailed in the texts, it is clear that Lehi’s daughters were part of the group that chose to follow Nephi into the wilderness, separating themselves from their brethren Laman and Lemuel, who had rejected Nephi’s leadership and the divine revelations (2 Nephi 5:6).
The choice of Lehi’s daughters to accompany Nephi and the other faithful members of the family indicates their belief in the warnings and revelations of God. As such, they were among the foundational members of the group that would become known as the Nephites. Their departure with Nephi’s followers, which included the families of Zoram and Sam, helped to establish a community that endeavored to live according to the commandments and prophetic guidance they had received.
Very little is known about the personal lives of Lehi’s daughters, as the narrative does not provide details beyond their association with the faithful followers of Nephi. However, their inclusion in the account as believers in the revelations signifies their importance in the early history of the Nephites, and their decision to depart with Nephi implies a willingness to uphold the spiritual convictions held by their family.
