And it came to pass that

in the first year of the reign of Alma in the judgment-seat,

there was a man brought before him to be judged,

a man who was large, and was noted for his much strength.

and it was he who was an instrument in the hands of God

in delivering the people of Limhi out of bondage.

Alma 2:1

And it came to pass in the commencement of the fifth year of their reign

there began to be a contention among the people;

for a certain man, being called Amlici,

he being a very cunning man,

yea, a wise man as to the wisdom of the world,

he being after the order of the man that slew Gideon by the sword,

who was executed according to the law —

Alma 2:20

And it came to pass that when Alma could pursue the Amlicites no longer

he caused that his people should pitch their tents in the valley of Gideon,

the valley being called after that Gideon

who was slain by the hand of Nehor with the sword;

and in this valley the Nephites did pitch their tents for the night.
