Naʻe hoko ‘a ‘Alamā ko e ‘uluaki fakamaau lahi ‘i he taimi naʻe fokotuʻu ai ‘e he Tuʻi ko Mōsaiá ke pule ‘a e kau fakamāú ‘i he kau Nīfaí, peá ne fetongi foki ‘ene tamaí ‘o hoko ko e taulaʻeiki lahi ki he Siasí (vakai, Mōsaia 29:42). Naʻe iku ‘o ne fakafisi mei hono lakanga ko e fakamaau lahí koeʻuhí ke “fakataumuʻa hono kotoa ‘o ‘ene ngāué ki he “lakanga fakataulaʻeiki māʻolungá” mo hono “fakamoʻoniʻi ‘o e folofola ‘a e ‘Otuá ki he kakai” ‘i he fonua kotoa ‘o e kau Nīfaí (ʻAlamā 4:20; 5:1). Naʻe ngāue ʻaki ‘e Molomona ‘a e ngaahi lekooti ‘o e ngāue fakafaifekau ‘a ‘Alamaá (ʻAlamā 1–44) mo e ngaahi tohi ‘a hono ongo foha ko Hilamani (ʻAlamā 45–62) mo Sipiloní (ʻAlamā 63) ke faʻu ‘a e tohi ‘a ‘Alamaá.
