Zedekiah (Book of Mormon)

Zedekiah (Deseret: πžπ‡π”π€π—πŒπ‚) is a figure in the Book of Mormon, a key text of the Latter Day Saint movement, described as one of the twelve Nephite disciples chosen during Jesus Christ's appearance to the Nephites. According to the Book of Mormon, Zedekiah was a member of the Nephite Quorum of the Twelve. He taught the Nephites the content of the "Sermon at the Temple" and was baptized by Nephi. He and the other disciples preached to the Nephites. His name appears in academic and critical studies of the Book of Mormon and is sometimes used for children in Latter Day Saint families, including among Māori adherents.
