Home > The Book of Mormon > Ether > Chapters 7-11
Summary[edit]This section should be very brief. Click the link above and to the right to edit or add content to this heading. → Relationship to Ether. The relationship of Chapters 7-11 to the rest of Ether is discussed at Ether. Story. Chapters 7-11 cover all of Jaredite history between the founding generation of Jared and his brother, and the final generation of Coriantumr and Ether. This middle portion of Ether consists of four major sections. In the first, destruction is averted by repentance. In the other three, secret combinations cause society to be destroyed:
Message. Themes, symbols, and doctrinal points emphasized in Chapters 7-11 include:
Discussion[edit]This section is for detailed discussion such as the meaning of a symbol, how a doctrinal point is developed throughout a passage, or insights that can be further developed in the future. Contributions may range from polished paragraphs down to a single bullet point. The focus, however, should always be on understanding the scriptural text consistent with LDS doctrine.

Ether 7-11: Themes[edit]
Ether 7 / Verses 7:4-27[edit]
Ether 8-9a / Verses 8:1-9:15a[edit]Ether 9b-10 / Verses 9:15b-10:29[edit]
Ether 11 / Verses 10:30-11:23[edit]Unanswered questions[edit]This section is for questions along the lines of "I still don't understand ..." Please do not be shy. The point of these questions is to identify things that still need to be addressed on this page. Click the link above and to the right to edit or add content to this heading. → Prompts for life application[edit]This section is for prompts that suggest ways in which a passage can influence a person's life. Prompts may be appropriate either for private self reflection or for a class discussion. Click the link above and to the right to edit or add content to this heading. → Prompts for further study[edit]This section is for prompts that invite us to think about a passage more deeply or in a new way. These are not necessarily questions that beg for answers, but rather prompts along the lines of "Have you ever thought about ..." Prompts are most helpful when they are developed individually, thoughtfully, and with enough background information to clearly indicate a particular direction for further study or thought. Click the link above and to the right to edit or add content to this heading. →
Resources[edit]This section is for listing links and print resources, including those that are also cited elsewhere on this page. A short comment about the particular strengths of a resource can be helpful. Click the link above and to the right to edit or add content to this heading. → Notes[edit]Footnotes are not required but are encouraged for factual assertions that average readers cannot easily evaluate for themselves (such as the date of King Solomon’s death or the nuanced definition of a Greek word). In contrast, insights rarely benefit from footnoting, and the focus of this page should always remain on the scriptures themselves rather than what someone has said about them. Links are actively encouraged on all sections of this page, and links to authoritative sources (such as Strong's Bible Concordance or the Joseph Smith Papers) are preferable to footnotes.

Summary[edit]This section should be very brief. Click the link above and to the right to edit or add content to this heading. → Relationship to Chapters 12-15. The relationship of Chapters 13b-15 to the rest of Chapters 12-15 is discussed at Chapters 12-15. Story. Chapters 13b-15 consists of three major sections:
Message. Themes, symbols, and doctrinal points emphasized in Chapters 13b-15 include: Discussion[edit]This section is for detailed discussion such as the meaning of a symbol, how a doctrinal point is developed throughout a passage, or insights that can be further developed in the future. Contributions may range from polished paragraphs down to a single bullet point. The focus, however, should always be on understanding the scriptural text consistent with LDS doctrine. Click the link above and to the right to edit or add content to this heading. → Outline[edit]● Ether's warning to avoid destruction by repenting (Chapter 13b)
● Coriantumr tries to avoid destruction by fighting four usurpers (Chapter 14)
● Coriantumr tries to avoid destruction by negotiating, destruction fulfilled over eight days (Chapter 15)
How to avoid destruction[edit]A main point of this section is that the destruction can be avoided only through repentance. Ether tells Coriantumr at the beginning to repent. Coriantumr tried to overcome the destructive forces within his society instead by force of arms, or by relying upon the arm of flesh. He then tries to reach an accommodation through negotiation. Neither works because he does not repent as the prophet insisted must be done. So Coriantumr and his people are destroyed over the course of an eight day battle. The first section (verses 13:13-22) sets up the thesis of the closing narrative in Ether: Destruction may be avoided only by repentance. This is that the prophet Ether tells the king Coriantumr. The rest of this closing narrative is a lesson about what happens when the king ignores this message from the prophet. Throughout this closing narrative Coriantumr thinks he is fighting a succession of competing political foes: Shared, Gilead, Lib, Shiz, but really it is about the conflict between Coriantumr and the prophet Ether.
