King Benjamin

~120 BC, Zarahemla (Book of Mormon)

Righteous Nephite king. Labored with his own hands so he would not burden his people. Gave his great farewell sermon from a tower at the temple in Zarahemla — "when ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God."

On their voice

Wise, fatherly, tender. Not a fierce prophet — a working king who remembered he was dust. Mosiah 2–5 lives in him.
