And
now Moroni was angry, because of the stubbornness of the Lamanites; therefore
he commanded his people that they should fall upon them and slay them. And it
came to pass that they began to slay them; yea, and the Lamanites did contend
with their swords and their might.
The Comments:
Moroni is angry at the stubbornness
of the Lamanites and orders his men to attack.
Interesting that the
word stubborn issued here. Not evil or anything like that. For me reading the account,
it is obvious that the Lamanites cannot get out of this, but they fight
anyway. Fight against the only way to
get out alive.
We do this. Pull the
stubborn card and refuse to go the direction the Lord has (sometimes quite
clearly) given us.
Moroni orders his men to
kill the remaining Lamanites, which they do.
The Lamanites fight with
their swords and their might—which is once again how Satan fights.
