Book of Mormon Mosiah 13:34
"Have they not said that God himself should come down among the children of men, and take upon him the form of man"
Book of Mormon 1 Nephi 19:10
"yieldeth himself, according to the words of the angel, as a man, into the hands of wicked men"

INTERPRETIVE: both attribute the God-as-man doctrine to the prophets collectively - Abinadi's 'all the prophets who have prophesied ever since the world began' (13:33), Nephi's named chain (the angel, Zenock, Neum, Zenos). Verbal overlap is thin ('form of man' / 'as a man'); emphases differ (advent-and-power vs yielding to wicked men); no verse connects the two summaries.
