Book of Mormon Mosiah 7:3
"he being a strong and mighty man, and a descendant of Zarahemla; and he was also their leader"
Book of Mormon Omni 1:28
"And their leader being a strong and mighty man, and a stiffnecked man"

Shared words: being a strong and mighty man, and a

The phrases 'a strong and mighty man' and 'leader' co-occur at exactly these two verses in the corpus - both of leaders of expeditions between Zarahemla and the land of Nephi, with inverted second epithets ('a stiffnecked man' vs 'a descendant of Zarahemla') and inverted outcomes (the Omni leader's party slain save fifty; Ammon's expedition ends in deliverance). The Omni 1:28 leader is the same unnamed figure Zeniff contends against at Mosiah 9:2; that identification is convergent but unasserted by either text (see open uncertainties).
