Enos is a figure in the Book of Mormon who is a son or grandson of Jacob, a Nephite prophet, and the author of the Book of Enos. According to the Book of Mormon he lived sometime during the fifth century BC, writing his record near his death 179 years after Lehi left Jerusalem, or around 421 BC. The atlas records him as the internal author of the Book of Enos within the Latter Day Saint scriptural tradition. He should not be confused with the biblical Enos of Genesis, who is a separate figure in the Hebrew Bible and the Christian Old Testament.
