== Questions ==
* When are other times that the Lord has required the use of witnesses? What is the Lord's law of witnesses?
* Are these witnesses suggesting that the Lamanites kept a record that was incorporated into the plates they beheld, or rather that the history of the Lamanites was contained on the plates, alongside the histories of the Nephites and Jaredites?

===Verses 33-42: Oath and Covenant of the Priesthood===

Like other covenants contained in the scriptures, the priesthood covenant described in these verses creates a specific relationship between God and his children. By entering into this covenant, promises are exchanged and obligations created. These promises and obligations in turn establish a relationship of reliance between the parties. The priesthood holder relies upon God for the spirit (verse 33) and, eventually, for exaltation (verse 38). God relies on the priesthood holder to help establish his church and kingdom (verse 34). This reliance draws them together in a mutual effort.

The oath portion of the "oath and covenant" apears to be coupled with the covenant and thus probably relates to the same promises as the covenant. An oath can be distinguished from a covenant in that, traditionally, the performance of an oath is not contingent upon the performance by another person (as is the case in a covenant relationship). This perhaps suggests that the promises in these verses are also to be made by oath--i.e., regardless of what others may say or do, or not do.

Generally, the priesthood covenant is understood to be a covenant involving only priesthood holders. However, verses 35-38 repeatedly use the term "receive," which could certainly be read more broadly to be applicable to anyone who "receives" the Lord's priesthood in the same sense as receiving the Lord's servants (i.e., by accepting its/their teachings and authority).

===Verse 5===
The list of commandments beginning in this verse number seven (in terms of "thou shalt's"). These seven commandments appear at first to stand against the ten commandments of the Old Testament (although, upon close study of [[Ex 20:1]]ff, one finds that the commandments there might also be read as numbering seven). The seven-fold character of the commandments here [[D&C 59:9|culminates]] in the "thou shalt" of the sabbath day, the seventh commandment thereby presenting the seven-fold existence of the saints.

The ordering of commandments here also suggests a possibly interesting parallel between the first six days of creation. The first three days of creation seem to be follow an interesting parallel pattern by the next three days of creation (4th through 6th days). On the first and fourth day of creation, light and dark are the primary elements at work. On the first and fourth commandment listed here seem primarily related to love (love God with all thy heart vs. not committing adultery). Throughout the scriptures, God is described as both light and love, and the at-one-ment symbolized by the unity of husband and wife is a rich symbol for the central atoning message of the gospel with the purpose of saving mankind from eternal darkness.

On the second and fourth days of creation, air and water are the primary elements at work—heaven is created from the waters on the second day and the fowls and fishes are created on the fourth day. Similarly, the second and fourth commandment listed here are loving versus killing one's neighbor. This taking of life might be viewed as the meeting of body and spirit as air and water become the meeting place between God's light above and man's mortality on earth below.

On the third and sixth days of creation, the earth, grass and herbs and land-dwelling animals (including man and woman) are created. Likewise, the third and sixth commandments have to do with not stealing and showing gratitude for earthly possessions.

* What happened to future generations of the Anti-Nephi-Lehis that might have kept them from being preserved by the Lord?
* When the Sons of Helaman were preserved in battle, was that because of their own righteousness, or because of this promise to their fathers?

== Lexical notes ==
* ''Click the edit link above and to the right to add lexical notes''

== Exegesis ==
* In verse 12 the Lord clearly instructs Ammon to get the people out of the land. He doesn't specifically say to live with the Nephites (though it seems that that was the question Ammon took to the Lord (see [[Alma 27:7| verse 7]])) but the Anti-Nephi-Lehis do end up living there. They end up later almost breaking their covenant ([[Alma 56:7]]) and their children end up joining the Nephites in battle. Unfortunately, it seems that at least many of their children end up apostasizing (see [[Hel 7:1|Hel 7:1-3]]). Note that in this verse, verse 12, the Lord promises only to preserve this generation. No such promise is given to future generations. It may be that had the children of the Anti-Nephi-Lehis taken and kept the same covenant their parents had taken, they may have avoided falling into the same cycle of unbelief and warfare that characterizes the history of Nephite society.

We see over and over in the Book of Mormon that signs do not convert. Take Laman and Lemuel for instance. Over and over they experienced physical signs (i.e. visitations from angels, hearing the voice of the Lord, etc), however, they never became truly converted, and in the end they fell away from the truth.

== Questions ==
* How does the Lord deliver us in our daily trials?

* Verse 28: Is this verse parallel to [[Alma 36:2| v. 2]]? Why would Alma begin and end the account of his conversion by reminding Helaman of this scriptural type?

* Verse 30: How are verses 28-29 (and, therefore, also [[Alma 36:3|v. 3]]) a type for what Alma says in this verse?

Verse 30: Here Alma repeats the promise made in verse 1 but adds the warning "and ye ought to know also, that inasmuch as ye will not keep the commandments of God ye shall be cut off from his presence." Why is this warning not included at the begininning of their discussion (in verse 1)?

== Lexical notes ==
* v. 27: Notice the parallelism found in this passage. "God has delivered me from prison, and from bonds, and from death; yea, and I do put my trust in him, and he will still deliver me."

== Exegesis ==
vs.28-30: In verses 28-29 Alma cites examples of how the Lord has delivered His people in the past and exhorts them to retain [these things] in rememberance. In verse 30 he turns to the importance of keeping the commandments and how, if we do, we will not be cut off from the presence of the Lord. Alma's preaching to the people of Zarahemla in [[Alma 5:1| Alma 5]] also called on the people to remember how the Lord had delivered their fathers from captivity. He then asks "And moreover, have ye sufficiently retained in remembrance that he has delivered their souls from hell?" [[Alma 5:6]] Alma seems to be emphasizing the importance of retaining in rememberance that the Lord's deliverance is not only physical but also spiritual.

== Lexical notes ==

== Exegesis ==

For those who feel that they are small and simple as to the things of the world, verse 6 should be of comfort to you. As individuals in the church, we may feel small and simple compared to the great body of the church or the universal plan of the Lord. However, as Alma points out, small and simple things can bring great things to pass. Not only do small and simple things bring great things to pass, in many instances, they confound the wise as well. Those learned of the world who choose to not accept the gospel or reject these glad tidings because they cannot see or feel with their senses can be overcome with a small and simple testimony from an individual of the church. Never sell yourself short in comparing your qualities or abilities with others. The Lord looks upon us all as equals - His children. Therefore, remember that being small and simple is a good thing; in the end, we will be made great and powerful if we simply fulfil our covenants given to us in this life.

What does shadow mean in this verse?

Why did Alma use the phrase "easiness of the way" when he was talking about the liahona? A similar phrase is used in [[1 Ne 17:41]]: "…He sent fiery flying serpents among them; and after they were bitten he prepared a way that they might be healed; and the labor which they had to perform was to look; and because of the simpleness of the way, or the ''easiness'' of it, there were many who perished" (emphasis added).

In verses 16-18, Alma teaches that repentance would be void, or of no effect if there was no punishment. There is a punishment affixed, this punishment stands opposite to eternal happiness. The fulcrum upon which these are balanced is law. How could one sin if there was no law? How could there be law if there was no punishment? Alma admonishes that Corianton rest assured that the law and punishment were affixed.

In verses 19-25, Alma embellishes his discussion of law and recommends that the atonement allows mercy and justice to each claim their own. Alma asks: If there were no law, would anyone fear to murder? If there were no law, if men sinned, what could justice or mercy do? In affixing the punishment, the law is executed. In granting repentance, the law is executed. Mercy and justice claim all their own because of the atonment.

== Exegesis ==

In verses 26-31, Alma returns to the interpersonal discussion with his son, Corianton. Recall once more that Corianton's concern was that it is injust that sinners should be consigned to misery. Alma has discussed justice and mercy, and how the atonement allows mercy and justice to claim their own. Injustice would occur if a person or group of people are inevitably, unavoidably consigned to misery. Corianton suggested (or Alma perceived that Corianton believed) that it appears the group of sinners is so consigned. Alma's response is that whoso wants may partake of mercy through repentance, but no one is compelled (such compelling would likewise compromise the demands of justice and mercy). Finally, Alma exclaims that Corianton should not deny the justice of God, and should not be troubled by seeming injustices--he (Alma) has just explained the 'justness' of the plan. He summarizes his response to the original concern like this: Don't be troubled by the justice of God, be troubled by your own sins.

What parallels and differences are found in these verses related to understanding "things most precious" (vs. 34) and [[D&C_88:76-80 | Doctrine and Covenants 88:77-80]] which talks of things pertaining to the kingdom of God which are expedient to understand?

== Lexical notes ==

== Exegesis ==
D&C 101: 32-34 says the Lord will "reveal all things" during the Millennium, including "things which have passed" [history], "hidden things which no man knew" [new revelations and surprises to us], "things of the earth" [science], and on and on. It's fascinating to think that there is so much more to learn, and exciting to know that if we're faithful we'll be able to learn all these things. Or rather, we'll be able to remember all these things, since we may have known some of them in our pre-earth life.

It is fascinating to gain new knowledge about any topic. Learning a little bit here and a little bit there, about "things that are in the earth, and upon the earth, and in heaven" is one of the most enjoyable things about life. It's exciting to make a new discovery, either first hand or second hand. But what will be even more enjoyable, the Lord says here, will be to experience this new knowledge in the next life, while in God's presence. Two verses later he says "In this world your joy is not full, but in me your joy is full." How wonderful that joy will be. And how we should strive in this life to find joy each day that will prepare us, little by little, to receive that fulness of joy.

== Questions ==
===3 Ne 4:32===
* Why the emphasis here on God as the "Most High"? What does that mean?
===3 Ne 4:33===
* Why were humility and repentance essential to the Nephite's victory?
* Verse 33 tells us that the Nephites knew they were delivered "from an everlasting destruction" because of their repentance and their humility. Does this everlasting destruction refer to the everlasting physical destruction of Nephites? Or is this a reference to the spiritual destruction we all face without repentance and humility? Or, does it refer to both at once?

== Lexical notes ==
* In the KJV the phrase "Most High God" is consistently translated from the Hebrew title El Elyon. Given this, it is likely that the phrase here was translated from this same title. El Elyon refers to Elohim or God the Father, as opposed to Yahweh (Jehovah) who is Jesus Christ..
* The phrase "God Almighty" is probably a translation of the Hebrew title ''El Shaddai''.
* El Elyon and El Shaddai are ancient titles for God closely associated with stories of the Patriarchs--and are appropriately used here where the Nephites are thanking the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (see verse 30).
* Curiously, the term ''shaddai'' means "female breasts" and some have interpreted this to mean that God is the provider of all that is sufficient, just as a mother's breast provides all that is sufficient for an infant. Others have noted that shaddai has Semitic cognates that refer to mountains--which might indicate that El Shaddai is the God of the Mountain, the [Most High] God that rules from Mount Zion.

*It is when we recognize God's hand in all things that we are truly humble, such as the Nephites are here.

== Lexical notes ==
===Verse 30===
* ''Only true and living church.'' Although it may be possible to read this as meaning "the only true church" and "the only living church," this reading seems strained because of the fact that the word church is only used once. Instead, a more natural way of reading this phrase seems to be that the church is being described as the only one which is both true and living.
