“Noah … did not provide for succession to his throne. Instead, his son Limhi was appointed king by the people after his father’s kingdom had collapsed (Mosiah 19:26). There is no record of Noah’s ever having taught Limhi about royal responsibilities. Ironically, Limhi’s first official act of government was to indenture his people to the Lamanites. Noah’s reign brought about his people’s bondage and landed his son in a political quagmire” (Donaldson, “Benjamin and Noah,” 53–54).
