Das Zeitalter des Krieges in Zarahemla

Wiederaufbau Nach Dem Krieg

Alma 62:42–43

Nachdem sie die Lamaniten besiegt und das zurückeroberte Gebiet befestigt hatten, kehren Moroni und Helaman nach Zarahemla zurück; Moroni ernennt seinen Sohn Moronihah zum Militärkommandanten.

And it came to pass that after Moroni had fortified those parts of the land which were most exposed to the Lamanites, until they were sufficiently strong, he returned to the city of Zarahemla; and also Helaman returned to the place of his inheritance; and there was once more peace established among the people of Nephi. And Moroni yielded up the command of his armies into the hands of his son, whose name was Moronihah; and he retired to his own house that he might spend the remainder of his days in peace.

Alma 62:44–47

Pahoran setzt seine Pflichten als oberster Richter fort, und Helaman nimmt seine Berufung als Haupt der Kirche wieder auf und predigt Buße.

And Pahoran did return to his judgment–seat; and Helaman did take upon him again to preach unto the people the word of God; for because of so many wars and contentions it had become expedient that a regulation should be made again in the church.

Therefore, Helaman and his brethren went forth, and did declare the word of God with much power unto the convincing of many people of their wickedness, which did cause them to repent of their sins and to be baptized unto the Lord their God. And it came to pass that they did establish again the church of God, throughout all the land. Yea, and regulations were made concerning the law. And their judges, and their chief judges were chosen.

Alma 62:48–51

Die Nephiten gedeihen demütig und genießen die Güte sowie die Fülle von Gottes Segnungen.

And the people of Nephi began to prosper again in the land, and began to multiply and to wax exceedingly strong again in the land. And they began to grow exceedingly rich. But notwithstanding their riches, or their strength, or their prosperity, they were not lifted up in the pride of their eyes; neither were they slow to remember the Lord their God; but they did humble themselves exceedingly before him.

Yea, they did remember how great things the Lord had done for them, that he had delivered them from death, and from bonds, and from prisons, and from all manner of afflictions and he had delivered them out of the hands of their enemies. And they did pray unto the Lord their God continually, insomuch that the Lord did bless them, according to his word, so that they did wax strong and prosper in the land.

Alma 62:52

Helaman stirbt.

And it came to pass that all these things were done. And Helaman died, in the thirty and fifth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.
