basket in 2 Kings 10
BAS-ket
This thing shows up in 2 Kings 10:7: “When the letter came to them, they took the king’s sons and killed them, even seventy people, and put their heads in baskets, and sent…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
2 Kings 10:7
“When the letter came to them, they took the king’s sons and killed them, even seventy people, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him to Jezreel.”
What kids can learn
When you hear basket in 2 Kings, remember the sentence around it. God put this thing in the story on purpose.
Read 2 Kings 10:7 again tomorrow and ask what the thing is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
