Notes
Artist statement: "Abinadi's story is complex, in which shows his strong moral character. He was able to teach and stand up to some of the most wicked people and some of the most righteous people in the Book of Mormon. He taught about the 10 Commandments and about the Redeemer. I included the two tablets of commandments, as well as Hebraic letters, and on the first tablet is the Chi Rho, and the other is the Crown of Thorns. The Chi Rho is Greek, meaning Jesus Christ, and the Crown of Thorns is what Christ wore on His crucification. Both His life and death are taught and what save us."
