Now we discover that Aaron and his companions had encountered the Amalekites and Amulonites which occupied a city called Jerusalem. They had not only abandoned the religion of their fathers but had adopted the teachings of Nehor. Now we must remind ourselves that this record is dealing with a period back around 90 B.C., which was nine years before Ammonihah, the capital of the Nehor religion, was destroyed. We must also recall that Nehor taught that all mankind would be automatically redeemed by God, so they denied the coming of Christ and said there was no need for the wicked to repent or reform. As a consequence when the missionaries began to preach in Jerusalem they were immediately challenged.
