ALMA 29:21 [62:18]: And it came to pass that when they had come to the city Nephihah, they did pitch their tents in the plains of Nephihah, which is near the city Nephihah.
Commentary: This verse references the places of Nephihah, the plains of Nephihah, and Zarahemla. The term 'they' refers to Moroni, Pahoran, and their army. They were coming from the land of Zarahemla, which is westward of the land of Nephihah, so the plains of Nephihah should be to the west of the city of Nephihah.
