vulture in Micah 1
VUL-chur
This creature shows up in Micah 1:16: “Shave your heads, and cut off your hair for the children of your delight. Enlarge your baldness like the vulture; for they have gone into…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.
Micah 1:16
“Shave your heads, and cut off your hair for the children of your delight. Enlarge your baldness like the vulture; for they have gone into captivity from you!”
What kids can learn
When you hear vulture in Micah, remember the sentence around it. God put this creature in the story on purpose.
