eagle in Deuteronomy 28
EE-gul
This creature shows up in Deuteronomy 28:49: “Yahweh will bring a nation against you from far, from the end of the earth, as the eagle flies; a nation whose language you will not…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.
Deuteronomy 28:49
“Yahweh will bring a nation against you from far, from the end of the earth, as the eagle flies; a nation whose language you will not understand;”
What kids can learn
When you hear eagle in Deuteronomy, remember the sentence around it. God put this creature in the story on purpose.
Read Deuteronomy 28:49 again tomorrow and ask what the creature is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
