Alma 1:1

Now it came to pass that

in the first year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi,

from this time forward,

king Mosiah having gone the way of all the earth,

having warred a good warfare,

walking uprightly before God,

leaving none to reign in his stead;

nevertheless he had established laws,

and they were acknowledged by the people;

therefore they were obliged to abide by the laws which he had made.

Alma 1:2

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.
