Who was the prophet Zenos?

Thomas R. Valletta

“Zenos is one of four Israelite prophets of Old Testament times cited in the Book of Mormon whose writings appeared on the plates of brass but who are not mentioned in the Old Testament (see also Zenock; Neum; and Ezias). Zenos is quoted or mentioned by Nephi (1 Ne. 19:10–17), Jacob (Jacob 5:1–77; 6:1), Alma (Alma 33:3–11,13,15), Amulek (Alma 34:7), Nephi (Hel. 8:19–20), and Mormon (3 Ne. 10:14–17)” (Ludlow, Encyclopedia of Mormonism, 4:1623).
