- v. 38 - "Liahona. This interesting word is Hebrew with an Egyptian ending. It is the name which Lehi gave to the ball or director he found outside his tent…L is a Hebrew preposition meaning ‘to,’ and sometimes used to express the possessive case. ‘Iah’ is a Hebrew abbreviated form of ‘Jehovah,’ common in Hebrew names. ‘On’ is the Hebew name of the Egyptian ‘City of the sun’…L-iah-on means, therefore, literally, ‘To God is Light’; or ‘of God is Light.’ That is to say, God gives light, as does the Sun. The final ‘a’ reminds us that the Egyptian form of the Hebrew name ‘On’ is ‘Annu’, and this seems to be the form Lehi used.” (G. Reynolds and J. Sjodahl, Commentary on the Book of Mormon)
