The 1874 RLDS edition replaced the preposition in with to (giving “we will return to our record”); this error was probably due to the following to (“to Amalickiah”). The 1908 RLDS edition restored the correct in. There is no sense here of returning to the record as a whole, only to that part of the record that refers to Amalickiah.
Summary: Maintain in Alma 47:1 the original reading with the preposition in (“we will return in our record to Amalickiah”).
