Second edition

I never thought before about the fact that Nephi wore a brief summary of the first book of Nephi as an introduction before he began his account. Today I realized that he was able to do that because he had already written that history before being commanded to make a second copy. Not only that but it would have made more sense to read that for Joseph Smith and Martin Harris because they had already translated the 117 pages before that where Nephi had his first draft of those parts of the history.
