Ether 15 — Study Questions
- Ether 15:1–3 — After recovering from injury, Coriantumr began to remember the words of Ether (Ether 13:20–21). He remembered the words of other prophets too. How many people had died before Coriantumr repented? Were there only soldiers, or were there civilian casualties? What did he do to try to right the situation as far as he could?
- Ether 15:4–6 — What was so tragic about Shiz offering to spare more people, if Coriantumr would give himself up so that Shiz could kill him? Can you imagine how Coriantumr must have felt? Why would it not have been profitable for him to do that? Why would turning himself over likely not have saved the people (Ether 13:20–21)? Had the people repented along with Coriantumr? Who was continuing the bloodshed?
- Ether 15:15–28 — What was Moroni’s purpose in giving a blow-by-blow account of the destruction of the Jaredites? See Ether 2:11–12.
