What is "helaman"

According to the Book of Mormon, Helaman was a Nephite prophet and soldier who lived around the 1st century BC. He is perhaps best known in LDS theology for leading into battle an army of two thousand young warriors, which he referred to as his two thousand sons. Most of the parts of the narrative involving Helaman come from the latter half of the Book of Alma.

Helaman is the religious leader and soldier from Mormon scripture, and the son of Alma the Younger.

Helaman may also refer to:

• Book of Helaman, called Helaman for short
• Helaman, son of Helaman, aka Helaman II, Nephite prophet who lived around 30 BC
• Helaman (ca 130 BC), a son of King Benjamin
