Alma 30:21

And it came to pass that he caused that he should be carried out of the land.

And he came over into the land of Gideon,

and began to preach unto them also;

and here he did not have much success,

for he was taken and bound and carried before the high priest,

and also the chief judge over the land.



Alma 30:22

And it came to pass that the high priest said unto him:

Why do ye go about perverting the ways of the Lord?

Why do ye teach this people that there shall be no Christ,

to interrupt their rejoicings?

Why do ye speak against all the prophecies of the holy prophets?



Alma 30:23

Now the high priest's name was Giddonah.

And Korihor said unto him:

Because I do not teach the foolish traditions of your fathers,

and because I do not teach this people to bind themselves down

under the foolish ordinances and performances

which are laid down by ancient priests,

to usurp power and authority over them,

to keep them in ignorance,

that they may not lift up their heads,

but be brought down according to thy words.



Alma 30:29

Now when the high priest and the chief judge saw the hardness of his heart,

yea, when they saw that he would revile even against God,

they would not make any reply to his words;

but they caused that he should be bound;

and they delivered him up into the hands of the officers,

and sent him to the land of Zarahemla,

that he might be brought before Alma, and the chief judge

who was governor over all the land.
