eagle in Proverbs 23
EE-gul
This creature shows up in Proverbs 23:5: “Why do you set your eyes on that which is not? For it certainly sprouts wings like an eagle and flies in the sky.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.
Proverbs 23:5
“Why do you set your eyes on that which is not? For it certainly sprouts wings like an eagle and flies in the sky.”
What kids can learn
When you hear eagle in Proverbs, remember the sentence around it. God put this creature in the story on purpose.
Read Proverbs 23:5 again tomorrow and ask what the creature is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
