Abstract

As King Benjamin related to his people, an angel revealed to him multiple names for the coming Messiah: "Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Father of heaven and earth, the Creator of all things from the beginning." This KnoWhy explores the significance of Jesus receiving multiple names and titles, specifically as connected to the coronation of Benjamin's son Mosiah as the new Nephite king.
