What can we learn from the “multitude of tender mercies” experienced by the Jaredites?

Thomas R. Valletta

“The various scriptures tell us vital things about God’s ‘tender mercies’ (1 Ne. 1:20; Ether 6:12; see also Luke 1:78) and His dealings with our predecessors. What is past is truly prologue; hence an unvarying, all-seeing God, desiring to save mercurial and myopic man, is not interested in our retroactive adulation, but in preventing our prospective ruination” (Maxwell, “God Will Yet Reveal,” 53).
