We have come to the end of the "Small Plates of Nephi". This first part of the Book of Mormon is said to be the "more spiritual" history of the Book of Mormon. Everything you need to know for your salvation is covered in the first 200 pages. The generations of writers started with Lehi then his son Nephi, then Nephi gave the records to his brother Jacob, who transferred them to his son Enos, who conferred them upon his son Jarom, who handed the baton to Omni. In the book of Omni the records changed possession quickly through Omni's son Amaron who gave the records to Omni's other son Chemish, who gave them to his son Abinadom, with no writers contributing more than a few verses, until Abinadom bestows upon Amaleki the honor of being the last writer in the "Small Plates of Nephi". Amaleki then gives the records to King Benjamin who combines them with, or at least stores them with the Large Plates of Nephi. Amaleki essentially ends his narrative like the new Star Wars character on 'The Mandalorian' who says, "I have spoken".
