Mosiah 24:8

And now it came to pass that

Amulon began to exercise authority over Alma and his brethren,

and began to persecute him,

and cause that his children should persecute their children.



Mosiah 24:9

For Amulon knew Alma,

that he had been one of the king's priests,

and that it was he that believed the words of Abinadi

and was driven out before the king,

and therefore he was wroth with him;

for he was subject to king Laman,

yet he exercised authority over them,

and put tasks upon them, and put task–masters over them.



Mosiah 26:8

Now king Mosiah had given Alma the authority over the church.
