According to the Book of Mormon, the brother of Jared is the most prominent person in the account given in the beginning (Chapters 1 - 6) of the Book of Ether. Moriancumer ( /mɔr.iː.ˈæn.kə.mɜr/) is the name of the place where Jared and the people he was traveling with (later to be called Jaredites) settled for a time. Some years after the publication of the Book of Mormon, Joseph Smith, Jr. mentioned that Mahonri Moriancumer was the name of the "brother of Jared."

Famous quotes containing the word brother:
“I was interested to see how a pioneer lived on this side of the country. His life is in some respects more adventurous than that of his brother in the West; for he contends with winter as well as the wilderness, and there is a greater interval of time at least between him and the army which is to follow. Here immigration is a tide which may ebb when it has swept away the pines; there it is not a tide, but an inundation, and roads and other improvements come steadily rushing after.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
