Book Three in the Book of Mormon Commentary Series.
Alma became the first chief judge of the new political system established among the Nephites in the land of Zarahemla in 91 B.C. The new government is referred to in the Book of Mormon as the reign of the judges.
Alma was also appointed the high priest of the Church by his father, giving him charge over all the affairs of the Church (Mosiah 29:42-47).
The first forty-four chapters of the Book of Alma are an abridgement made by Mormon of the record of Alma. This record was kept by or under the direction of Alma, the son of Alma.
These forty-four chapters of Alma are discussed in this third volume of the commentary series, The Record of Alma. Although covering less than a twenty year period (91-74 B.C.), these chapters are rich in principles and doctrines that contribute to the validation of the Book of Mormon as containing the fullness of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
