Shazer was the place Lehi’s company named after traveling four days in nearly a south-southeast direction from their camp in the Valley of Lemuel, where they pitched their tents (1 Nephi 16:13). From Shazer the men took their bows and arrows into the wilderness to hunt food for their families, then returned to the camp (1 Nephi 16:14). They went on in the same direction, keeping to the most fertile parts of the wilderness, which lay in the borders near the Red Sea (1 Nephi 16:14). Shazer is named only at this point in the record, and nothing further is said of it beyond its place along the route.
