Moroni understood that he had inserted himself and his interests into the story of the brother of Jared, and, therefore, specifically marks the return to the text in verse 1. The quick conclusion to the story is that the brother of Jared descended the mountain with the stones that Jehovah had touched. They now provided light. While Moroni explains that “the Lord caused stones to shine in darkness, to give light unto men, women, and children,” we should read that statement as having dual intent. The first intent is just as he said. It was an event. The stones provided the light that they needed. However, it was also important that Jehovah had touched them, and the light of the world gave part of that light to the stones. In Ether 4:12, Jehovah had explained: “Behold, I am the Father, I am the light, and the life, and the truth of the world”. That is the unstated second meaning of verse 3.
