moth in Genesis 20

This creature shows up in Genesis 20:12: “Besides, she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.

Genesis 20:12

“Besides, she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.”

What kids can learn

When you hear moth in Genesis, remember the sentence around it. God put this creature in the story on purpose.

Read Genesis 20:12 again tomorrow and ask what the creature is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
