Alma Ch14

Alma and Amulek are put in prison and are forced to watch as believers of their words are burned with the scriptures. Alma comforts Amulek with the knowledge that they will be received by the Lord and then displays the power of God by breaking out of prison. Those who had persecuted them were slain and on their way to meet God too.
The sermon and testimony he bore in the last chapter converted many and they repented, but more of the people were desirous to kill the them because of their plainness in telling them their wickedness (v1-3). The people bound them and sent them to court to be tried against their laws which just happened to have Zeezrom there to testify in favor of Alma and Amulek (v4-6)! He had had a change of heart and realized he was guilty of leading the people away, so he pleaded with the people but they rejected his change and cast him out with the rest that had been converted; and by 'cast out' I mean burned (v7-8).
To make matters worse, the made Alma and Amulek witness this tragedy with women, children, and all the holy scriptures being burned (v9). Amulek wanted to use the power of God to stop this but Alma was stopped by the Spirit because the Lord has allowed this to happen in His infinite wisdom (v10-11). This action that is allowed is a way to receive those innocent unto Him, in glory, and pass judgement on those who have rejected the words. Then Amulek in his despair says, "perhaps they will burn us also," to which Alma replies, 'if it is God's will, but we're not done yet' (v12-13).
After all the burning is over, the chief judge makes a display of mockery towards the prophet by exclaiming they had no power to help their followers because their God could not save them (v14-16). Alma and Amulek bore all this and said nothing, but were cast into prison for 3 days with many visitors to question them about all their preaching and still said nothing (v17-19). They were beaten, questioned, spit upon, straved, mocked, bound, and given many harsh treatments to get them to answer them over the days they were in prison (v20-22).
It was 10-12-10 (not an exact conversion...not even close actually! it just means the 12th day of 10th month in year 10) when a bunch of the wicked questioners came to see them, and the chief judge says, 'if you can deliver yourself, we will believe everything you've said,' to which every person declares after (v23-25). After so long without a reaction, I'm sure it surprised everyone when they finally rose and Alma declared with passion how the Lord is giving them strength, according to their faith, after such a long time of affliction, and as their restraints break, the people scatter in fear (v26). None escaped the prison as it was destroyed in an earthquake except Alma and Amulek, who emerged to find a group of people who had heard the noise and come to see the cause but then fled in great fear just as the others had (v27-29).
