According to theBook of Mormon, asacred text of theLatter Day Saint movement,Cezoram (/siːˈzɔːrəm/)[1] was the eighth Nephite chief judge (c. 30 BC). In the 62nd year of thereign of the judges, or 30 BC,Nephi, son of Helaman, gave up the judgement seat and thence devoted himself to spreading the gospel.[2] Four years later, in 26 BC, Cezoram was murdered by theGadianton robbers. His son replaced him, but was murdered also.[3] After that, the government fell into the hands of those robbers,[4] and it is not known what happened with the judgement-seat untilNephi came back to call the people to repentance.[5] (Cezoram is distinct from the similarly named Gadianton robberSeezoram.)
