1 Nephi 5:14, and chapter 6

I think it's interesting that it seems like Lehi had never actually read the brass plates before. I guess that means that they really were valuable, and I'm pretty sure I fit into this category from verse 18:

 "these plates of brass should go forth unto all naions, kindreds, tongues, and people who were of his seed."

Also, It seems like the reason that Nephi decides not to include the genealogy of his family in his account, which he mentions in chapter 6, is because it was sort of his dad's thing. Getting those plates was a pretty big deal.
