Book of Mormon 1 Nephi 8:26
"a great and spacious building"
Book of Mormon 1 Nephi 12:18
"the large and spacious building, which thy father saw, is vain imaginations and the pride of the children of men"

Lehi beholds 'a great and spacious building … high above the earth' (8:26); the angel glosses it: 'the large and spacious building, which thy father saw, is vain imaginations and the pride of the children of men' (12:18). Note the wording shifts from 'great' (8:26) to 'large' (12:18) for the same symbol.
