raven in Genesis 8
RAY-ven
This creature shows up in Genesis 8:7: “and he sent out a raven. It went back and forth, until the waters were dried up from the earth.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.
Genesis 8:7
“and he sent out a raven. It went back and forth, until the waters were dried up from the earth.”
What kids can learn
When you hear raven in Genesis, remember the sentence around it. God put this creature in the story on purpose.
Read Genesis 8:7 again tomorrow and ask what the creature is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
