Alma exhorts Corianton to repentance. Clearly Alma is using the imagery of the harlot as the symbol for the nature of his apostasy, as Alma calls this a “lust of your eyes.” This would appear to most directly relate to consorting with harlots. However, as we will see, the focus of the bulk of Alma’s discourse will not be chastity, but rather very important and basic gospel principles. Corianton’s process of repentance necessarily will require a return to the gospel first, and then a repentance of his actions with the harlot Isabel, and perhaps others.
