Mulekite[edit]

In contrast to the Nephites, Lamanites, Jaredites, and others, the word "Mulekite" does not appear in the text of the Book of Mormon. One should exercise caution in creating a named people when they are not mentioned as such. Sorenson discusses this in Ancient American Setting for the Book of Mormon.

I searched, and you are correct; the word "Mulekite" is never used in the text of the Book of Mormon. It is, however, used in the chapter summaries. I will make this correction (and some others) in the article. Val42 01:10, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mulek vs. Muloch[edit]

The most recent issue of FARMS Insights (26, p. 3) states that according to the Book of Mormon Critical Text Project, the original name was Muloch, not Mulek. Ascentury 22:25, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If it has any Semitic relationship at all, it's presumably from triliteral root m-l-k, from which words meaning "king" are derived... AnonMoos (talk) 15:54, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
