Show only 2:10 of the entire 5:57 video.

Using This Video

You could show the second part of this video (from 3:34 to 5:44) when you arrive at the part of the lesson that says:

“Ask a student to read Jacob 2:12–13 aloud. Invite the class to follow along, looking for what led some of the Nephites to compare themselves with others.

  • What led some of the Nephites to compare themselves with others?

  • What words or phrases in verse 13 indicate how some of the Nephites were comparing themselves with others?

  • How can comparison lead to pride?”

Show the video first, inviting students to list phrases from the video that indicate what led some of the Nephites to compare themselves with others. After the video, encourage them to review Jacob 2:12–13 and mark the related phrases as they find them in their scriptures. Then continue with the written lesson.
