-an
interesting question both in this context but also outside it. In general we should consider it soberly and
honestly. What is it that we desire?
-in the
context of Nephi’s previous observation about the tree: that it is “precious above all”, the Spirit’s
question, “what desirest thou?” can be viewed as a query to measure just how
precious it is to Nephi. If there is
something that is very precious we would, naturally, desire that precious
thing. But how much do we want it which
is also to say, how much do we value it?
What are you going to do –how much effort and sacrifice are you willing
to spend- to obtain it?
