Here is one of the most sensational events recorded in the entire Book of Mormon. To the student of the Book of Mormon this climax is one of the most gratifying highlights. With Paul we are able to exclaim: “God will not be mocked!” The last verse in this chapter provides the fitting finale to this entire episode:
“Now the people having heard a great noise came running together by multitudes to know the cause of it; and when they saw Alma and Amulek coming forth out of the prison, and the walls thereof had fallen to the earth, they were struck with great fear, and fled from the presence of Alma and Amulek even as a goat fleeth with her young from two lions; and thus they did flee from the presence of Alma and Amulek.”
