coin in Matthew 17
KOYN
This thing shows up in Matthew 17:24: “When they had come to Capernaum, those who collected the didrachma coins came to Peter, and said, “Doesn’t your teacher pay the didrachma?”” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Matthew 17:24
“When they had come to Capernaum, those who collected the didrachma coins came to Peter, and said, “Doesn’t your teacher pay the didrachma?””
What kids can learn
When you hear coin in Matthew, remember the sentence around it. God put this thing in the story on purpose.
Read Matthew 17:24 again tomorrow and ask what the thing is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
