Why Did King Benjamin Say That His People Would Be Sons And Daughters At God’s Right Hand? #307

The early passages of Mosiah appear to often employ wordplays on King Benjamin’s name, a name which is traditionally thought to mean “son of the right hand.” This definition helps to explain the focus on children in the early chapters of the book of Mosiah, King Benjamin’s discussion of spiritual rebirth, and being enthroned at Gods’ right hand.
