“The Curse of God Did No More Follow Them”
That is, they had their sins remitted, had their souls reoriented toward the things of God, and began to enjoy rich outpourings of his Spirit. It may be also that the mark of the curse, the dark skin (2 Nephi 5:21), was removed from them. “And it came to pass that those Lamanites who had united with the Nephites were numbered among the Nephites; and their curse was taken from them, and their skin became white like unto the Nephites; and their young men and their daughters became exceedingly fair, and they were numbered among the Nephites, and were called Nephites” (3 Nephi 2:14-16).
