The principle point of the book is what is often reiterated to the Nephites and to church members: Inasmuch as ye will keep my commandments ye shall prosper in the land. Jarom does this by pointing to the Nephites, who were continually exhorted to righteousness and were blessed because of it. During his time, the Nephites had many battles with the Lamanites but because of keeping the commandments, they were continually blessed and prospered greatly. Jarom even states that because of this righteousness, there were many who were receiving revelation from the lord. Jarom concludes the record by handing the plates, which he received from Enos, his father, to his son Omni.
