“With All Manner of Weapons of War”

Brant Gardner

Mormon does not tell us the type of weaponry used to give us details. He isn’t giving any details at all. His catalog of armaments is simply to indicate the wide range of forces that they faced. Different combatants would have different weaponry, and stating the weaponry was meant to tell us of the large number of different types of attackers they were facing.
