Lamoni’s father is willing to give up all his kingdom to have eternal life They bury their weapons “deep” in the earth Become the Anti-Nephi-Lehies

Answer 14

Those who were “converted unto the Lord, never did fall away.” They decide they no longer want their swords “stained with the blood” of their brethren so they bury their weapons deep in the earth They allow themselves to be killed rather than to fight other Lamanites. “They were firm, and would suffer even unto death rather than commit sin,” 1,005 are killed. The attacking Lamanites are “stung” and more than had been killed join the converts. The former Nephites (Amulonites/Amalekites) are hunted & killed by the Lamanites. Ammon joys in being an instrument in the hands of God. “I will not boast of myself, but I will boast of my God.” Despite being depressed and suffering “every privation” Ammon sayes there “never were men that had so great reason to rejoice.” The Nephites make room for the converts, protect them, and accept them as their brethren.

Answer 15

The Lamanites/Nephites have the largest battle in their history. Thousands are killed. Alma writes, “Oh that I were an angel… and cry repentance unto every people.” Alma writes, “I do not joy in my own success alone, but my joy is more full because of the success of my brethren.”
