“The Sons' Courage and Faith Pays off”

Monte S. Nyman
57 And as we had no place for our prisoners, that we could guard them to keep them from the armies of the Lamanites, therefore we sent them to the land of Zarahemla, and a part of those men who were not slain of Antipus, with them; and the remainder I took and joined them to my stripling Ammonites, and took our march back to the city of Judea.

Zero casualties amazed even Helaman. No doubt the power of God was their strength. It brought sufficient fear upon the Lamanites to cause their surrender (v. 56). No wonder Helaman adopted them as his sons.
