How was the “furious wind” mentioned in verse 5 a blessing to the Jaredites?

Thomas R. Valletta

Sister Ardeth Kapp observed: “Note that it [the furious wind] never did cease to blow towards the promised land (Ether 6:8; emphasis added). They were driven forth before the wind toward their goal. Once they understood the purpose for the wind and knowing that their vessels were tight, we read further, ‘And they did sing praises unto the Lord’” (Rejoice! His Promises Are Sure, 69).
