“They Were Taught to Walk Humbly Before the Lord”

Brant Gardner

In Moroni’s mind, these two verses convey a single thought. Prospering is directly related to walking humbly before God. The promise attached to the land is that those who inherit it will prosper if they obey God. The fact that the Jaredites prospered is proof of their righteousness.
