worm in Isaiah 41
WURM
This creature shows up in Isaiah 41:14: “Don’t be afraid, you worm Jacob, and you men of Israel. I will help you,” says Yahweh, “and your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.
Isaiah 41:14
“Don’t be afraid, you worm Jacob, and you men of Israel. I will help you,” says Yahweh, “and your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.”
What kids can learn
When you hear worm in Isaiah, remember the sentence around it. God put this creature in the story on purpose.
Read Isaiah 41:14 again tomorrow and ask what the creature is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
