	Mosiah 10
		Zeniff’s actions here would appear to indicate that he understood this to be a serious invasion threat as he removes the women and children from harms way, and arms the old men.
		Zeniff describes placing his men "in their ranks, every man according to his age." The "ranks" would be the battle ranks, and would consist of multiple lines of warriors.
		In verse 12 Zeniff introduces the Lamanites as "a wild, and ferocious, and a blood-thirsty people, believing in the tradition of their fathers" In the latter part of verse 12 through the end of 17 Zeniff is explaining what those traditions were.

	Mosiah 9
		Zeniff is explaining his selection to the group of men sent to spy on the Lamanites in the land of Nephi.
		Zeniff and his people may have the "land of Lehi-Nephi, and the land of Shilom." We see in the next verse that there is also a city of Lehi-Nephi and a city of Shilom, following the tradition of having a central location for which the surrounding land is known.
		Zeniff specifically notes two things about the Lamanites, that they were "lazy and idolatrous." The "lazy" appears to be a direct reference to the Lamanite desire for tribute, since it is given as a justification for the conquest and tribute pattern Zeniff must have noted for the Lamanites.

		Zeniff, being a Nephite among a larger Mulekite population, is familiar with the lands of his ancestors so he is chosen as a spy against the Lamanites.
		Zeniff argues for the leader of the armies to make a treaty with the Lamanites, but the leader is a severe and war-like man who is determined to kill the Lamanites.
		Zeniff and four others travel to the Lamanite city where the king over that portion of the land is so they may find out how he feels about the Nephites moving back into their ancestral lands (v.

		Zeniff says that he "had a knowledge of the land of Nephi, or the land of our fathers' first inheritance," which he obtained through his activities as a spy among the Lamanites.
		The Lamanites, according to Zeniff, were taught to hate the Nephites, because they believed "that they were wronged while in the land of their first inheritance, after they had crossed the sea.
		Zeniff's account contains so many references to "the land of our fathers' first inheritance" and "the land of our fathers" that we must conclude that he is designating the area which Lehi's group first reached after crossing the sea.

		Later it is conquered by the Lamanites, prompting the remaining Nephites to flee to the Mulekite land of Zarahemla.
		In later years, an expedition under Zeniff returns to Nephi-Lehi to recolonize the area, and at first the Lamanites allow them to settle.
		Zeniff, his son Noah, and Noah's son Limhi rule as kings of Lehi-Nephi, until they are driven out by the Lamanites.

		Just as with Zeniff's event, it is quite possible that the attacks were justified against Lamanites, but ended up against hamlets rather than against those specific bands responsible for the thefts.
		"When Noah replaced his father Zeniff as king of the Nephites living in the land of Nephi, "he put down all the priests that had been consecrated by his father, and consecrated new ones in their stead, such as were lifted up in the pride of their hearts" (Mosiah 11:5).
		The social transformation of the faithful people of Zeniff into the idolatrous people of Noah is a great change, and the seduction of the apparent wealth and prestige of Noah's kingdom (bolstered by real or imagined "victories") would have been strong.

	Limhi in the Library - FARMS JBMS
		Zeniff uses two different phrases to describe his possessions: "the land of Lehi-Nephi, and the land of Shilom" (Mosiah 9:6) and "the city of Lehi-Nephi, and the city of Shilom" (Mosiah 9:8) Limhi's account seems to reflect the latter wording with consideration of the former.
		It is questionable whether Zeniff's group had any records other than (1) a copy of the brass plates; (2) the twenty-four Jaredite plates; and (3) their own records.
		Note that Amaleki describes the leader as "a strong and mighty man, and a stiffnecked man" (Omni 1:28), whereas Zeniff describes the leader as "an austere and a blood-thirsty man" (Mosiah 9:2).

	IN Zeniff
		Zeniff leads a group from Zarahemla to possess the land of Lehi-Nephi—The Lamanite king permits them to inherit the land—There is war between the Lamanites and Zeniff’s people.
		And now I, Zeniff, after having told all these things unto my people concerning the Lamanites, I did stimulate them to go to battle with their might, putting their trust in the Lord; therefore, we did contend with them, face to face.
		now it came to pass that Zeniff conferred the kingdom upon Noah, one of his sons; therefore Noah began to reign in his stead; and he did not walk in the ways of his father.

	Mosiah 9:1 I, Zeniff, having been taught in all the language of the Nephites

		Second, Zeniff says all the language of the Nephites because there was more than one language.
		Zeniff was quick to acknowledge the good qualities of Lamanite society.

		The teacher discussed Zeniff's zeal in wanting to inherit the land of his fathers, and tried to make an analogy to us, seeming to imply that it would be good if we each could also be as persistent as Zeniff.
		And Zeniff himself later admits that King Laman only "yielded up the land" to bring the people into bondage, implying that he (Zeniff) was hoodwinked- this only a few verses after describing his own "overzealousness".
		After thinking these things through and deciding that Zeniff's "overzealousness" was probably not the most desirable quality (I would stop short of calling it bad- perhaps it is more short-sighted than "bad"), I proceeded to ask myself if we are ever overzealous in a way that might adversely affect us or the next generation.

	The Revised Book of Mormon
		Amaleki's history seems to indicate that Zeniff set out after the great battle between the Nephites and Lamanites during the reign of king Benjamin.
		The dates for Mosiah II are among the best documented in the Book of Mormon (see Mosiah 6:4; 29:46; and 3 Nephi 2:4-6) We know that Mosiah was born in 154 B.C. and that he became king in 124 B.C., when he was thirty years old.
		Zeniff explained that Lamanite tradition claimed that Nephi had wronged his brothers Laman and Lemuel, had taken from them the right to rule, and had robbed them of the brass plates (Mosiah 10:12-17).

		Zeniff encountered difficulties in establishing his colony among the Lamanites.
		One of the causes of this difficulty was that the Lamanites felt they had been "wronged," were therefore "wroth," and consequently taught their children to "hate" the Nephites (Mosiah 10:12-17)).

		And it came to pass when they had been in prison two days they were again brought before the king, and their bands were loosed; and they stood before the king, and were permitted, or rather commanded, that they should answer the questions which he should ask them.
		And he said unto them: Behold, I am Limhi, the son of Noah, who was the son of Zeniff, who came up out of the land of Zarahemla to inherit this land, which was the land of their fathers, who was made a king by the voice of the people.
		And now, it came to pass that after Limhi had heard the words of Ammon, he was exceedingly glad, and said: Now, I know of a surety that my brethren who were in the land of Zarahemla are yet alive.

		Zeniff's people dwelt in the land for twelve years, prospering and waxing strong, until the Lamanite king felt threatened by their presence. After that, the Lamanites are again relentlessly attacking Zeniff, and life is a series of wars and skirmishes.

		The coronation of Mosiah occurred in a setting similar to the traditional Israelite assembly at the temple, together with sacrifices, covenant renewal, confessions, pronouncements regarding Christ's atoning blood, and admonitions to serve God and help the poor.
		About seventy-five years earlier, Zeniff had established his colony; he fought two wars, and his wicked son Noah succeeded him.
		The book of Mosiah establishes several pairs of comparisons in a manner similar to a literary technique often used in the Bible: Alma1 and Amulon are examples of good and bad priests; Benjamin and Noah are contrasting exemplars of noble and corrupt kingship.

		In retrospect, Zeniff is not a bad protector and leader.
		The unfortunate legacy of Zeniff’s life is that he leaves his people in a precarious position—surrounded by Lamanites.
