The large plates of Nephi were kept by Mosiah in Zarahemla and are different than these plates. Limhi's plates contain the record of his people from the days of king Zeniff to his day. This is the record from which Mormon will take his abridgment, comprising Mosiah 9-22. We must remember that there are many sets of plates other than the large and small plates of Nephi. In this chapter, we learn of the plates of Limhi's people and the 24 gold plates of the Jaredites.
