and now it came to pass that when the king had sent forth this proclamation,

that Aaron and his brethren went forth from city to city,

and from one house of worship to another,

establishing churches, and consecrating priests and teachers

throughout the land among the Lamanites,

to preach and to teach the word of God among them;

and thus they began to have great success.

and now it came to pass that

the king and those who were converted were desirous

that they might have a name,

that thereby they might be distinguished from their brethren;

therefore the king consulted with Aaron and many of their priests,

concerning the name that they should take upon them,

that they might be distinguished.

when the king had made an end of these sayings,

and all the people were assembled together,

they took their swords, and all the weapons

which were used for the shedding of man's blood,

and they did bury them up deep in the earth.
