Story Behind the Art

“Holding the symbols of God’s love, Lehi waits for his family. His arm is an extension of the iron rod, which symbolizes the word of God, demonstrating that a prophet’s words are from the Lord. Sariah precedes her younger sons. Overcome, either with joy or fatigue, she clings to the rod nonetheless. Directly behind her is Nephi, who also grasps the rod while reaching out to her in concern. Sam holds onto Nephi and the rod.

Teichert reverses the expected assignment of light and dark. Lehi’s small group and much of the tree of life are shadowed while the building glows alluringly. Its golden statues convey the status of its throngs of people, and its glory seems to surpass that of the tree. As in real life, the blessings of faith and obedience are sometimes not as immediately apparent or attractive as the entrapments of Satan. (Book of Mormon: 1 Nephi 8:10, 12, 15, 18-19, 26-27)”
