Verses Containing Geography Information

The verses listed below are used in the Internal Map Commentary. When verses duplicated each other (but were usually phrased a little bit differently), the verse with the most descriptive information was used in the commentary and is on the list. One of the typical reasons why there might be two verses that have duplicate information is the use of chiasmus as a Hebraic writing form that is found in the Book of Mormon. A simple description of Chiasmus is that it is a repetition of a set of statements in reverse order, producing two sets of the same statements.
