Ether 9
I had forgotten how many terrible thinks Akish had done. Plotting to kill Omer, later killing Jared (in public and by the same plots), killing his own son by starvation, and leading a people into such wickedness that they would destroy themselves down to 30 people in one generation – probably within a few years.
After Emer’s long life (142 years) Com reigned until his son murdered him and led the people to the brink of destruction by famine (he died in the famine).
Are we becoming so unstable that we are as easily led to wickedness? We are certainly headed that direction.
