colt in Judges 12
KOLT
This creature shows up in Judges 12:14: “He had forty sons and thirty sons’ sons, who rode on seventy donkey colts. He judged Israel eight years.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.
Judges 12:14
“He had forty sons and thirty sons’ sons, who rode on seventy donkey colts. He judged Israel eight years.”
What kids can learn
When you hear colt in Judges, remember the sentence around it. God put this creature in the story on purpose.
Read Judges 12:14 again tomorrow and ask what the creature is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
