Evidence elsewhere in the text argues that the reading here in 2 Nephi 28:12 should be emended to “because of false teachers and false doctrines” (that is, doctrine should be in the plural). See the discussion under 2 Nephi 28:9 for the evidence from scribal errors and usage elsewhere in the text in support of this emendation.
