From the Book of Mormon, Nephi with Labam (the latter drunk and unconscious)

Summary[edit]

Description
English: A painting of the scene in 1 Nephi 4 (in the Book of Mormon) when Nephi feels the spirit of God tell him to kill Laban, whom he has found unconscious on the street in Jerusalem. Two men on a cobblestone street, surrounded by high walls; the lighting of the sky and scene indicate it is nighttime. One man lies on the ground, his eyes shut. He wears clothing with very wide sleeves. A scabbard for a sword is at his belt. One arm rests under his head, as if his pillow. He is fully plunged in the shadow of a wall/building to the left in the image. This man is Laban. The second man stands over him, hunched over but leaning slightly back. His back down is caught in shadow; his head is caught in light (moonlight?). He has in his right hand a sword, visible only by silhouette in the lighting. He wears an orange-ish tunic that goes down to his wrists and shins. He wears a not-quite-turban head covering of a more bluish/whitish hue. This man is Nephi. In the background, the street stretches on, passing under a semi-oval arch.
