Who are the people of Nephi? Who did Nephi kill in the First Book of Nephi? An overlord would break the bow of a disobedient vassal to symbolically put the rebel in his place" see also Jeremiah ; That detail is significant in 1 Nephi Nephi's bow broke, and the bows of Laman and Lemuel lost their springs, but when Nephi fashioned a new bow, making him the only one in camp with a bow, his brothers soon accused Nephi of having political ambitions" William Hamblin, "Nephi's Bows and Arrows".
Lehi and Sariah most likely had daughters in the wilderness. And all those who would go with me were those who believed in the warnings and the revelations of God; wherefore, they did hearken unto my words" 2 Nephi He does not refer to these sisters as the wives of Ishmael's sons. And those married sisters, who had rebelled from the time they first came out of Jerusalem, would probably not have left their husbands to go with Nephi without his mentioning the fact.
More likely, the sisters who accompanied Nephi were younger, born in the wilderness. That the birth of girls is not mentioned agrees with the custom of that day. Joseph is called Lehi's 'last-born. More to the point, Nephi describes all who went with him as believers in the warnings and revelations of God.
That speaks highly of his younger sisters" Jerrie W. Hurd, "Our Sisters in the Latter-day Scriptures," Zoram could have been adopted into the House of Israel.
Being a servant to Laban suggests he was not of the blood of Israel. Regardless, as patriarch of Joseph's branch of Israel, Lehi extends all the blessings of the Lord to this faithful man and to his seed. If he were not of the house of Israel, he was adopted into it. These blessings were to come through the family unit of Nephi another suggestion that he was not of the blood of Israel , but were conditional upon their keeping the commandments of the Lord" Monte Lyman, "Book of Mormon Commentary: I, Nephi, Wrote This Record," 1: Book of Mormon.
