“There Arose Another Mighty Man and He Was a Descendant of the Brother of Jared”

Alan C. Miner

After King Moron had regained the kingdom from the first "mighty man," there arose "another mighty man, and he was a descendant of the brother of Jared" (Ether 11:17). This second "mighty man" overthrew King Moron and obtained the kingdom; "wherefore, Moron dwelt in captivity all the remainder of his days; and he begat Coriantor. . . . and Coriantor dwelt in captivity all his days. . . and Coriantor begat Ether" (Ether 11:18,19,23).
