Alma 27:27

And they were among the people of Nephi,

and also numbered among the people who were of the church of God.

for they were perfectly honest and upright in all things;

and they were firm in the faith of Christ, even unto the end.

Alma 27:28

And they did look upon shedding the blood of their brethren

with the greatest abhorrence;

and they never could be prevailed upon to take up arms against their brethren;

and they never did look upon death with any degree of terror,

for their hope and views of Christ and the resurrection;

therefore, death was swallowed up to them by the victory of Christ over it.

Alma 28:5

Yea, the cry of widows mourning for their husbands,

and also of fathers mourning for their sons,

and the daughter for the brother,

yea, the brother for the father;

and thus the cry of mourning was heard among all of them,

mourning for their kindred who had been slain.
