Animals
bear in Genesis 4
BAIR
This creature shows up in Genesis 4:13: “Cain said to Yahweh, “My punishment is greater than I can bear.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.
Genesis 4:13
“Cain said to Yahweh, “My punishment is greater than I can bear.”
What kids can learn
When you hear bear in Genesis, remember the sentence around it. God put this creature in the story on purpose.
Read Genesis 4:13 again tomorrow and ask what the creature is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
