Oh my goodness, I was just reading about that little detail today and actually paid attention to it and remembered the Biblical account of a similar event! Thanks so much for putting more light into that event! AMULEK sounded like he was prom a generation of righteous men but as he admitted, he followed the hardness of his heart and therefore he was now grateful to be the means for a holy prophet to be assisted. Amulek is amazing! And ALMA appeared to be a great friend to him too, after all his family members disgraced him as part of them, ALMA took him to his own home and comforted him. What a great friendship and example to all of us!
Interesting Limhi didn’t know someone in Zarahemla could interpret writings. When Cyrus made the decree to rebuild Jerusalem, some vessels of the temple didn’t make it back. Two of note were the Ark of the Covenant and the Urim and Thummim. I wouldn’t be surprised if Mulek and his group preserved the Urim and Thummim and brought it to the Promised Land. They certainly would have had access to get it. But obviously didn’t use it, for whatever reason, as they could not interpret the writing on the stone. But as soon as Mosiah showed up, they suddenly got an interpretation. Possibly Mosiah got the Urim and Thummim from Zarahemla. This would time Aminadi with Mosiah the 1st. And Mosiah not being able to interpret yet, creating the need for Aminadi to interpret. And parallel with Belshazzar receiving the writing with Daniel’s interpretation, and Babylon being conquered that very night. There certainly is a similarity in the stories. Just a thought…
I'm confused. The stories in Daniel didn't take place until after Lehi left Jerusalem. Any correlation between Aminadi and the story in Daniel is not because the Nephites knew of the story, becauae they didn't. Any correlation is because God has a similar way of working with disparate peoples! I guess my point is, only we see the connection to Daniel, and the connection is for us in the latter days -- the Nephites wouldn't have known of it, right? Or am I missing something?
Yes, so the point is that Amulek might have used his genealogy and that particular important event that occurred (when one of his ancestors interpreted the writings on the wall) for a reason. Maybe he did so in order to bring the people's memory to it and teach them something. What was he teaching them? Well, looking at a similar event, that is when Daniel interpreted the writings on the wall by which God was admonishing the King, this suggests that Amulek was reminding them of an admonition as well, not necessarily because he knew of Daniel's story, but because it might be a similar or possible reason for which he should mention a so similar and particular event.
I a Panjabi living the UK. I joined the church in 1980. I want to say that this kind of video is beyond non-members understanding. Someone should make video for all seekers of truth.
We're all at different levels, even members of The Church. 🤷🙂 If someone doesn't understand, they'll either not be interested in this video or want to learn more about the gospel.
Except we have archaeological evidence of Balshazzar and the Medo Persian war with Babylon is well attested. Aminadi is just a story. No such culture has been found. To me this would indicate that this story is just a copy of the Daniel 5 occurrence.
Just curious, do you believe in the story of Adam & Eve and the Garden of Eden from Genesis since we have no archaeological evidence? Or really any story from the Bible for which there is no archaeological evidence? Should we base our testimonies of God and Jesus off of archaeology? Surely you would agree that we cannot base our faith off of archaeology but we can and should base our faith in Jesus Christ? M
@@cameronreed1411 On the contrary, God does not expect blind faith. 2 Pet. 1:16. The Bible was written in a real culture in real time. That much has been proven without a doubt. I have personally walked Hezekiah’s tunnel. Regarding Adam and Eve, that is rooted in the testimony of Jesus, Who proved His authority by raising from the dead. A miracle witnessed by over 500 people.
Don Bradley, my man, yes
Another fantastic video! Thank you!

That is a well-thought out theory. Thanks for sharing
