Zeezrom was a lawyer in the city of Ammonihah, one of the most expert among them and a man with much business among the people, whose object was to get gain (Alma 10:31-32). He first appears as the foremost to accuse Alma the Younger and Amulek, questioning Amulek and offering him six onties of silver to deny the existence of God (Alma 11:21-35).
When Amulek answered him, Zeezrom began to tremble, silenced and caught in his lying; Alma then spoke to establish Amulek’s words (Alma 11:46, 12:1). Zeezrom began to inquire diligently to know more concerning the kingdom of God, asking Alma about the resurrection and the judgment of the just and the unjust (Alma 12:8).
Knowing the blindness he had caused among the people by his words, Zeezrom declared his own guilt and that Alma and Amulek were spotless, and pleaded for them; the people reviled him, spit upon him, and cast him out (Alma 14:6-7). He afterward lay sick at Sidom with a burning fever brought on by the tribulation of his mind. When he heard Alma and Amulek were in the land, he sent for them; Alma asked whether he believed in the power of Christ unto salvation, and on his profession of belief Alma cried to the Lord, and Zeezrom rose and walked. Alma then baptized him, and he began to preach to the people (Alma 15:3-12).
Zeezrom later joined Alma, Ammon, Aaron, Omner, and Amulek on the mission to the Zoramites, setting out from Melek (Alma 31:5-6).
