“And We Did Maintain the City”

W. Cleon Skousen

It is interesting that the Nephites were able to defend themselves in the city of Jordan and repulsed the Lamanites attack which followed very shortly. Mormon quickly urged the Nephites to fortify a chain of cities from the sea east to the sea west and thereby cut the Lamanites off from any further attack.
