bee in Genesis 31
BEE
This creature shows up in Genesis 31:5: “and said to them, “I see the expression on your father’s face, that it is not toward me as before; but the God of my father has been with…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.
Genesis 31:5
“and said to them, “I see the expression on your father’s face, that it is not toward me as before; but the God of my father has been with me.”
What kids can learn
When you hear bee in Genesis, remember the sentence around it. God put this creature in the story on purpose.
Read Genesis 31:5 again tomorrow and ask what the creature is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
