Mosiah 20


What happened to the wives and daughters the priests of King Noah didn’t return to? They were ashamed, but I guess that isn’t the same as Godly sorrow. What is the difference between sorrow and shame? The dictionary says shame is a feeling of humiliation cause by consciousness of wrong or foolish behavior. I guess the difference is that sorrow comes from humility, where shame just hurts your pride. Their shame kept them away from people instead of sorrow that would have led them to try and make it right. I guess it comes down to worrying more about what God thinks than what people think.
