ANTIPAS, MOUNT. A mountain, locality uncertain, but somewhere within the borders of the Lamanites. It was chosen by Lehonti and those who refused to heed the Lamanite king's war proclamation, as their place of rendezvous. They gathered to its summit; Amalickiah, by the king's command, followed with an army to compel their obedience, This army was treacherously surrendered by Amalickiah to Lehonti, and the latter took command of both armies. He was soon after killed by slow poison, administered to him by Amalickiah 's command, when the last named succeeded to his position (B. C. 73).
