Lehren der Missionare • BuchMormon•DE

Alma 32:1

Die Missionare beginnen zu predigen.

And it came to pass that they did go forth, and began to preach the word of God unto the people, entering into their synagogues, and into their houses; yea, and even they did preach the word in their streets.

Alma 32:2–3

Nach viel Arbeit beginnen sie, Erfolg unter den Menschen mit niedrigem Einkommen zu sehen, die nicht erlaubt sind, mit den anderen zu beten.

And it came to pass that after much labor among them, they began to have success among the poor class of people; for behold, they were cast out of the synagogues because of the coarseness of their apparel—

Therefore they were not permitted to enter into their synagogues to worship God, being esteemed as filthiness; therefore they were poor; yea, they were esteemed by their brethren as dross; therefore they were poor as to things of the world; and also they were poor in heart.

Alma 38:3–4

Alma 32:5

Die armen Leute erklären, dass ihnen der Zutritt zu den Kirchen verwehrt wird und sie somit keine Möglichkeit haben, Gottesdienst zu halten.

And they came unto Alma; and the one who was the foremost among them said unto him:

“Behold, what shall these my brethren do, for they are despised of all men because of their poverty, yea, and more especially by our priests; for they have cast us out of our synagogues which we have labored abundantly to build with our own hands; and they have cast us out because of our exceeding poverty; and we have no place to worship our God; and behold, what shall we do? ”

Alma 32:6

Alma dreht sich um, ignoriert seine vorherige Zuhörerschaft und richtet seine Aufmerksamkeit auf die armen Leute.

And now when Alma heard this, he turned him about, his face immediately towards him, and he beheld with great joy; for he beheld that their afflictions had truly humbled them and that they were in a preparation to hear the word.

Alma 32:7

Alma, unter Vernachlässigung der anderen, beginnt die Bußfertigen zu lehren.
