What do we learn from these verses about the pattern of unrighteous kings?

Thomas R. Valletta

How is Riplakish similar to King Noah (see Mosiah 11:1–15)? Why did King Mosiah suggest the Nephites do away with kings? Why are multiple judges more likely to rule fairly than a single king? (See Mosiah 29:11–14, 16–19; see also Deuteronomy 17:13–20 for Moses’ account of unrighteous kings.)
