Ear See also Hearken In the scriptures, the ear is often used as a symbol of a person’s ability to hear and understand the things of God. They have ears, but they hear not, Ps. 115:6. The Lord waketh mine ear to hear, Isa. 50:4–5 (2 Ne. 7:4–5). He that hath ears to hear, let him hear, Matt. 11:15. Their ears are dull of hearing, Matt. 13:15 (Moses 6:27). Eye hath not seen nor ear heard the things which God hath prepared for them that love him, 1 Cor. 2:9 (D&C 76:10). The devil whispers in their ears, 2 Ne. 28:22. Open your ears that ye may hear, Mosiah 2:9 (3 Ne. 11:5). I was called many times, and I would not hear, Alma 10:6. Give ear to my words, Alma 36:1 (Alma 38:1; D&C 58:1). There is no ear that shall not hear, D&C 1:2. Ears are opened through humility and prayer, D&C 136:32.
