Verse
13-14
And
it came to pass that the soldier who stood by, who smote off the scalp of
Zerahemnah, took up the scalp from off the ground by the hair, and laid it upon
the point of his sword, and stretched it forth unto them, saying unto them with
a loud voice:
Even
as this scalp has fallen to the earth, which is the scalp of your chief, so
shall ye fall to the earth except ye will deliver up your weapons of war and
depart with a covenant of peace.
The Comments:
This same mystery
soldier raises Zarahemnah’s scalp into the air. He doesn’t brag that he could
have killed Zarahemnah, but reaffirms everything Moroni just said. Sort of a
second witness testimony—Deliver your weapons and depart with a covenant of
peace.
This is what, the
Lamanite’s second or third chance to surrender without further bloodshed?
