Moronihah

 

Moronihah

This is the city of Moronihah. Due to the practice of naming a land by the same name as the city, it is presumed to also be the land of Moronihah. The land of Moronihah is in proximity to the South Wilderness and the land southward. The land of Moronihah is southward of the land southward. The land of Moronihah may be near the Sea West shore.

Commentaries (view it on a map)

ALMA 30:19 [63:15]: And also in this same year, they came down with a numerous army to war against the people of Moronihah, or against the army of Moronihah, in the which they were beaten, and driven back again to their own lands, suffering great loss.

Commentary: This verse references the places of Moronihah and the South Wilderness. The term 'they' refers to the Lamanites. The phrase 'came down' indicates the Lamanites were higher than the land of Moronihah, at least that there is higher terrain around the land of Moronihah. The land of Moronihah is somewhere near the South Wilderness and the possessions of the Lamanites.

III NEPHI 4:9 [8:10]: And the earth was carried up upon the city of Moronihah, that in the place of the city thereof, there became a great mountain; and there was a great and terrible destruction in the land southward.

Commentary: This verse references the places of the land southward and Moronihah. The location of the city of Moronihah is now much higher than it was. The city of Moronihah is also in proximity to the land southward.
