Hello there. My name is Tyler Griffin and this is Scripture Study Insights by Scripture Central.

0:08.0

Today we're going to cover Alma chapters 8 through 12. And these particular chapters

0:16.0

are a continuation of Alma's missionary journey as the high priest over all the church in the land of

0:23.6

Zarah Himmla. So let me begin with zooming in on this specific region of the land in Zarahimla.

0:33.6

Remember chapter 5 he was teaching in Zara Himla. Then in chapter 7 he went east of the

0:41.3

River Sidon to Gideon and in the beginning of chapter 8 he comes home to Zarahimla in verse 1

0:49.3

to rest for a short season from his labors. And then he goes west of the River Sidon out

0:58.8

to Melech and the land and the regions round about Melech over by the wilderness. And you notice

1:06.2

that he has pretty good success in Melech, but Mormon only gives us three verses concerning the preaching

1:17.9

and the success. All the people that he baptizes from all the regions around about in

1:22.0

Melech doesn't seem to be a lot of opposition there. And then it tells us that he goes three days

1:28.1

1:39.2

in the passage of time in his narrative and he gives us many chapters. Life is very difficult for Alma,

1:48.3

the high priest or Alma the missionary, however you want to look at him in this role in Amaniha.

1:55.0

It's very, very trying. So as we dive into the text here from the portion from Amanayha, notice it says that

2:03.8

when Elma had finally come to this city of Ammonaiha, it describes what's going on there. It says,

2:10.6

now Satan had gotten great hold upon the hearts of the people of the city of Aminaeha. So if you were a missionary and

2:20.0

you were being transferred to a new location and you saw that as the description of the people

2:26.0

that you were going to serve among, it would be pretty discouraging. I love the fact that

2:32.2

in this telling of the story, Mormon embeds two times the word nevertheless.

2:41.4

So nevertheless in this context implies this idea of, in spite of what you just read, this is what happens anyway, or this is the counter

2:57.3

effect. This is the outcome. So you would read this, Satan had gotten great hold upon the
