cup in Exodus 25
KUP
This thing shows up in Exodus 25:31: ““You shall make a lamp stand of pure gold. Of hammered work shall the lamp stand be made, even its base, its shaft, its cups, its buds,…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Exodus 25:31
““You shall make a lamp stand of pure gold. Of hammered work shall the lamp stand be made, even its base, its shaft, its cups, its buds, and its flowers, shall be of one piece with it.”
What kids can learn
When you hear cup in Exodus, remember the sentence around it. God put this thing in the story on purpose.
Read Exodus 25:31 again tomorrow and ask what the thing is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
