BOOK OF MORMON - Ether Critique

The Jaredites are the descendants of Jared, his brother, their immediate family, and their friends. At the time of the Tower of Babel, when the tongues of all nations were confounded, the Lord acceded to the desires of Jared such that his people's language was not confounded. They were also granted a land of promise. The Lord guided these people through the wilderness, and were eventually directed to cross the sea in "barges". These vessels were sealed and watertight and able to be swamped by waves without sinking. Air was obtained from outside the vessels as needed. They also brought with them animals and food. The recorded length of this miraculous trip was 344 days.Wikipedia Encyclopedia.
