gate in Genesis 24
GAYT
This thing shows up in Genesis 24:60: “They blessed Rebekah, and said to her, “Our sister, may you be the mother of thousands of ten thousands, and let your offspring possess…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Genesis 24:60
“They blessed Rebekah, and said to her, “Our sister, may you be the mother of thousands of ten thousands, and let your offspring possess the gate of those who hate them.””
What kids can learn
When you hear gate in Genesis, remember the sentence around it. God put this thing in the story on purpose.
