Alma 51:2

Nevertheless, they did not long maintain an entire peace in the land,

for there began to be a contention among the people

concerning the chief judge Pahoran;

for behold, there were a part of the people

who desired that a few particular points of the law should be altered.

Alma 51:12

Yea, even Amalickiah did himself come down, at the head of the Lamanites.

And it was in the twenty and fifth year of the reign of the judges;

and it was at the same time that they had begun

to settle the affairs of their contentions concerning the chief judge, Pahoran.

Alma 51:13

And it came to pass that

when the men who were called king-men had heard

that the Lamanites were coming down to battle against them,

they were glad in their hearts;

and they refused to take up arms,

for they were so wroth with the chief judge,

and also with the people of liberty,

that they would not take up arms to defend their country.
