People in the Book of Mormon |
---|
According to the Book of Mormon, Omner (/ˈɒmnər/)[1] was a Nephite missionary and one of the sons of King Mosiah II. He was also brother to the prophet Ammon. As related in the Book of Mormon narrative, Omner and his three brothers (Ammon, Aaron, and Himni), left their father, and his people, to travel to the land of the Lamanites in order to preach the gospel to them.[2]
During their sojourn there, Omner was imprisoned and beaten,[3] but eventually aided in the conversion of thousands of Lamanites, who later became the Anti-Nephi-Lehies.[4]
