“The Lamanites Are Surrounded by the Nephite Armies”

Monte S. Nyman

Although many lives were lost, the Nephites were the victors (v. 32). In spite of the contentions among the Nephites (v. 18), the Nephite leaders still respected the value of human lives and allowed the prisoners to depart in peace (v. 33).
