“Yet the Lord Did Not See Fit to Deliver Them out of Bondage”

W. Cleon Skousen

Once the people had become reconciled to their humiliating task of being bond-servants and the Lamanites had treated them a little more like fellow human beings, it became possible for the Nephites to give half of everything they produced to the Lamanites and still save a little extra for themselves.
