22 For behold, they do study at this time that they may destroy the liberty of thy people, (for thus saith the Lord,) which is contrary to the statutes, and judgments, and commandments which he has given unto his people.
23 Now it came to pass that after Alma had received his message from the angel of the Lord, he returned speedily to the land of Ammonihah.
24 And he entered the city by another way, yea, by the way which is on the south of the city of Ammonihah.
25 And as he entered the city he was an hungered, and he said to a man, Will ye give to an humble servant of God something to eat?
26 And the man said unto him, I am a Nephite, and I know that thou art a holy prophet of God, for thou art the man whom an angel said in a vision, Thou shalt receive;
27 Therefore go with me into my house, and I will impart unto thee of my food; and I know that thou will be a blessing unto me and my house.
28 And it came to pass that the man received him into his house; and the man was called Amulek; and he brought forth bread and meat, and sat before Alma.
29 And it came to pass that Alma ate bread and was filled; and he blessed Amulek and his house, and he gave thanks unto God.
30 And after he had eaten and was filled, he said unto Amulek, I am Alma, and am the high priest over the church of God throughout the land.
31 And behold, I have been called to preach the word of God among all this people, according to the spirit of revelation and prophecy;
32 And I was in this land, and they would not receive me, but they cast me out, and I was about to set my back towards this land for ever.
