TRIV Why could no water hurt the Jaredite barges?

Behold they were as white as the countenance and also the garments of Jesus; and behold the whiteness thereof did exceed all the whiteness, yea, even there could be nothing upon earth so white as the whiteness thereof. 3 Nephi 19:25 3 Nephi 19:25

Trivia: How many of the Nephite disciples did Jesus say would never die?

Why could no water hurt the Jaredite barges?


Because they were tight like unto a dish

And they were built after a manner that they were exceedingly tight, even that they would hold water like unto a dish; and the bottom thereof was tight like unto a dish; and the sides thereof were tight like unto a dish; and the ends thereof were peaked; and the top thereof was tight like unto a dish; and the length thereof was the length of a tree; and the door thereof, when it was shut, was tight like unto a dish. Ether 2:17
There was no water that could hurt them, their vessels being tight like unto a dish. Ether 6:7
