“To Stir Them Up in Remembrance of Their Duty”

W. Cleon Skousen

We have no indication of how Mosiah reacted to the announcement that he was to be the new king over this people. Of course, as he saw his father weakening with age he may have assumed that he would receive this high honor since he was the oldest son. In any event, he hurried away to carry out his father's instructions.
