leopard in Jeremiah 13
LEP-erd
This creature shows up in Jeremiah 13:23: “Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? Then may you also do good, who are accustomed to do evil.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.
Jeremiah 13:23
“Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? Then may you also do good, who are accustomed to do evil.”
What kids can learn
When you hear leopard in Jeremiah, remember the sentence around it. God put this creature in the story on purpose.
