“And He Was in a Cloud and the Brother of Jared Saw Him Not”

W. Cleon Skousen

In Ether 1:42 the Lord had promised to meet this band of pilgrims and help them prepare for the lengthy and somewhat frightening journey they would be required to make. It is interesting that when the Lord met with the brother of Jared and he did not allow himself to be seen but spoke from a cloud. From this time forward the Lord personally guided this little company of immigrants and took them into territories where no man had explored since the Great Flood.
