“Lehi Was a Man Who Had Been with Moroni in the More Part of All His Battles”

We have seen Lehi in action with Moroni, and Mormon confirms here that Lehi is one of his most trusted chief captains. It is interesting that Moroni does not give the possession of Mulek to Teancum, who was the commander of the army in this area. Perhaps Moroni needed Teancum’s more unconventional talents in other areas.
