Words of Mormon
The Book of Mormon for Beginners
A quick interlude from Mormon, the editor-in-chief of the entire volume. It turns out the stuff we've read so far was on a set of plates he didn't know about until after he was already well into his abridgment of Nephite history. His note here is to explain that he found it and liked it, so he's adding it in. He then explains that King Benjamin dealt with a lot of infighting among the Nephites as well as attacks from the Lamanite armies, but he was a strong and righteous leader, so the people prospered during his reign. There were also false Christs and false prophets who came among the people, but King Benjamin worked with the true prophets to silence them until peace was restored in the land of Zarahemla.
