Ether 12
Only 5 verses of this chapter are about Ether. Moroni uses the 36 verses to explain what he felt was a very important truth. I think he would have written those 36 verses in response to verse 5 alone. When the Lord commanded Moroni to record the words of Ether and the brother of Jared Moroni was skeptical of his ability to do it justice. I think the Lord made him strong in writing as a result. I also realize what a comfort it must have been to Moroni, being completely alone, to talk to the Lord.
