Moroni () is described in the Book of Mormon as the last Nephite prophet , historian, and military commander who, according to the faith of the Latter Day Saint movement , became the Angel Moroni who presented the golden plates to Joseph Smith .
Synopsis
[ edit ]
In the Book of Mormon, Moroni is the son of Mormon .[1] Moroni shares a name with Captain Moroni , a much earlier Book of Mormon figure, of whom Mormon wrote highly.[2]
Moroni works under his father, the commander in chief of a Nephite army, who battles against the Lamanites . Upon the Nephites' defeat at Cumorah , Moroni goes into hiding to avoid being killed by the Lamanites.
Instructed by his father to complete the Nephite record , which Mormon had abridged from previous records, Moroni narrates chapters 8 and 9 of Mormon's record in the larger Book of Mormon, the Book of Moroni , and the Book of Ether .
Upon completion of the record, Moroni buries the plates.
[ edit ]
In Latter Day Saint belief, Moroni was resurrected after his death and became an angel who directed Joseph Smith to the location of the buried golden plates in the 1820s.[3] [better source needed ]
