Book of Mormon Jacob 6:13
"I bid you farewell, until I shall meet you before the pleasing bar of God"
Book of Mormon 2 Nephi 33:11
"you and I shall stand face to face before his bar"

Shared words: bar

The two brothers close their preaching with the same farewell formula — a promised meeting at the bar of God. Nephi's closing chapter also carries the spotless-at-judgment image Jacob attached to his office at 1:19: 'I shall meet many souls spotless at his judgment-seat' (2 Nephi 33:7).
