Why is it important to continue to do our duty despite the objections of others?

Another evidence of the correctness of the translation of the Book of Mormon comes from the now discovered Hebrew names contained in it. “Luram is the name of a Nephite military leader who served with Mormon (see Moroni 9:2). The name is reflected in the second element of the name ’dn-Lrm, ‘Lord of LRM,’ known from a seal of ca. 720 B.C. found during excavations at Hama (Hamath) in Syria. The name is also known from graffiti on three bricks from the same level at Hama” (Tvedtnes, Gee, and Roper, “Book of Mormon Names Attested in Ancient Hebrew Inscriptions,” 49).
