Cohor was a historical figure found within the annals of Jaredite lineage, known for being the son of Corihor and the brother of Noah. He emerged during a notably turbulent period characterized by internal strife and challenges to the ruling power. As recorded, he aligned himself with his brother Noah, partaking in a rebellion against their uncle Shule, who was king at the time. This collective insurrection brought Cohor into the company of not solely his siblings but a faction of the populace that had sided with Noah’s defiance. The scriptures note, “And it came to pass that Noah rebelled against Shule, the king, and also his father Corihor, and drew away Cohor his brother, and also all his brethren and many of the people” (Ether 7:15). The turmoil, however, was ephemeral, for the regime of Shule regained control; Shule’s sons killed Noah and reinstalled their father to his rightful place as king.

Cohor’s significance in the narrative was further underscored by the subsequent generation, for he was the father of Nimrod (Ether 7:22), an individual who also partook in the governance of parts of the Jaredite territory. Despite the brief nature of his mention, Cohor’s involvement in these upheavals illustrates the complexities of loyalties and the challenges to power typical in Jaredite political dynamics.
