“The Messiah”

Alan C. Miner

The restoration of the name Jesus Christ from the Original and Printers Manuscript makes this the first mention of the name of Jesus in the Book of Mormon. Nephi tells us that the name of the Messiah was revealed to him by an angel (2 Nephi 25:19). [Zarahemla Research Foundation, Study Book of Mormon, p. 24] [See the commentary on 2 Nephi 10:3]
