“Even So Much Ye Shall Be Delivered Out of Your Trials”

Brant Gardner

Alma draws a parallel between Shiblon’s deliverance from the Zoramite difficulties to his spiritual life. Just as he was delivered from the Zoramites, he will be delivered from personal afflictions. We do not know how Shiblon escaped his difficulties with the Zoramites, but the means do not matter, only the result. Alma is helping Shiblon focus on the Zoramite experience for the life lessons it taught.
