Animals
ant in Genesis 8
ANT
This creature shows up in Genesis 8:17: “Bring out with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh, including birds, livestock, and every creeping thing that creeps on…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.
Genesis 8:17
“Bring out with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh, including birds, livestock, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply on the earth.””
What kids can learn
When you hear ant in Genesis, remember the sentence around it. God put this creature in the story on purpose.
Read Genesis 8:17 again tomorrow and ask what the creature is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
