“[Ether 3:13] underscores the eternal nature of the Atonement, its impact reaching out to all who lived before the Savior’s birth as well as all who lived after it. All those in Old Testament times who were baptized in Christ’s name had the same claim upon eternal life that the brother of Jared had, even though Christ had not yet even been born” (Holland, Christ and the New Covenant, 27).
