Ether 1 Questions

1. Why did Jared ask his brother to do all the praying?

Maybe Jared did pray also. Today we accept the custom of asking others to fast along with us for important causes.

Perhaps the brother of Jared had a gift of receiving answers. But then, why didn't the brother of Jared come up with these questions himself? Was that Jared's gift?

Maybe it is because this is a record by Jared's descendants. If I were to make a record, I might say "My grandpa did this," and then "my grandpa's brother did this in response."
