“They Began to Prosper by Degrees”

Alan C. Miner

How many months or how many years would it take for the people of Limhi to "prosper by degrees" (Mosiah 21:16)? The text makes mention that "they began to raise grain more abundantly, and flocks, and herds" (Mosiah 21:16). Prosperity apparently required a number of seasons. [See the commentary on Mosiah 21:21] [See Appendix A]
