swallow in Job 37
SWAH-loh
This creature shows up in Job 37:20: “Will it be told him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up?” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.
Job 37:20
“Will it be told him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up?”
What kids can learn
When you hear swallow in Job, remember the sentence around it. God put this creature in the story on purpose.
Read Job 37:20 again tomorrow and ask what the creature is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
