“So Exceedingly Great Was Your Joy”

Brant Gardner

Benjamin reinforces the status of the wealthy as beggars by reminding them that they have very recently been literally begging mercy of the Lord, a petition he has filled not with small measure, but with a great measure of joy, such that "you mouths should be stopped that ye could not find utterance, so exceedingly great was your joy."
