Cohor³

Cohor was a Jaredite individual noted during a time of significant wickedness that preceded the fall of the Jaredite civilization. He is known primarily through his familial connection, as his fair sons and daughters are mentioned in a context of widespread iniquity and rebellion against God. The record, as it stands, does not detail Cohor’s personal deeds or status within Jaredite society; however, it emphasizes that he, along with the lineage of Corihor and others, failed to repent of their sins despite the preaching and warnings of the prophets, including the prophet Ether (Ether 13:17). This lack of repentance contributed to the moral decay and eventual destruction of the Jaredite nation. The specific actions and influence of Cohor’s children are not elaborated upon, but their grouped mention with other unrepentant individuals suggests a collective disregard for prophetic counsel, leading to societal demise.
