“Now Behold, This Is the Voice of the Angel”

Brant Gardner

Rhetoric: This verse is a closing statement. Alma has already declared that an angel had pronounced a message for the Ammonihahites (v. 25). Here Alma punctuates that message by citing again the authority by which it is delivered. In the next sentence, he gives his own elaboration of that message.
