Brother of Jared sees the Lord

The Jaradites traveled a great distance to get to the ocean.  They were told by the Lord to construct barges. But the barges were sealed up tight, so their prophet, Mohonrimoriancamur, AKA The Brother of Jared, told the Lord of the lack of light problem.  

The Lord said to him, basically, "So what are you going to do about it?"

So the Brother of Jared melted small stones from some type of rock and climbed up a mountain and said, "Lord, if you'll touch each stone with your finger so it will glow, then we'll have light for our barges."

The Lord (the premortal Jesus Christ AKA Jehovah), must have liked the idea because He had been talking to Mohonri from a cloud.  Now he reached His finger out and the Lord touched each stone.

Mohonrimoriancamur was really surprised.  He told the Lord that he did not know that the Lord had flesh and blood.  

Jesus appeared completely to him and told the Brother of Jared that He, Jesus, would one day in the future take upon Himself a body of flesh and blood. 

I like how Jesus didn't just solve the prophet's problem.  He let the prophet figure it out and come up with an idea.  By the way, the glowing stones were placed at each end of the inside of each barge to give light to the people we now call the Jaradites.  

Read all about this in the Book of Ether in the Book of Mormon, Another Testament of Christ. In retrospect, I could have drawn the ocean and the 8 peaked at both ends barges in the distance. I guess you'll have to imagine that the ocean is over to the right, I suppose.
