“Feeding Upon Beasts of Prey”

Alan C. Miner

The Lamanites are described in a derogatory manner as "feeding upon beasts of prey" (Enos 1:20). Some have wondered if in saying this, Enos was inadvertently condemning hunting for sport. Others have said that it was against the law of Moses to feed on wild animals. [Alan C. Miner, Personal Notes] [See the commentary on Jarom 1:6]
