1 Nephi Long Chiasm
The Book of Mormon is the most chiastically dense text the world has ever seen. It is a paragon of literary sophistication. Nephi in particular deserves to take his rightful place alongside Moses, Homer, Confucius, Sophocles, Virgil and Kalidasa as one of the most eminent ancient writers in history.
