Alma 46:24

Alma 45:18

And when Alma had done this he departed out of the land of Zarahemla,

as if to go into the land of Melek.

And it came to pass that he was never heard of more;

as to his death or burial we know not of.

Alma 45:19

Behold, this we know, that he was a righteous man;

and the saying went abroad in the church

that he was taken up by the Spirit,

or buried by the hand of the Lord, even as Moses.

But behold, the scriptures saith the Lord took Moses unto himself;

and we suppose that he has also received Alma in the spirit, unto himself;

therefore, for this cause we know nothing concerning his death and burial.

Alma 46:24

Yea, let us preserve our liberty as a remnant of Joseph;

yea, let us remember the words of Jacob, before his death,

for behold, he saw that a part of the remnant of the coat of Joseph

was preserved and had not decayed.

And he said —

Even as this remnant of garment of my son hath been preserved,

so shall a remnant of the seed of my son

be preserved by the hand of God, and be taken unto himself,

while the remainder of the seed of Joseph shall perish,

even as the remnant of his garment.
