millstone in Isaiah 47
MILL-stohn
This thing shows up in Isaiah 47:2: “Take the millstones, and grind flour. Remove your veil, lift up your skirt, uncover your legs, and wade through the rivers.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Isaiah 47:2
“Take the millstones, and grind flour. Remove your veil, lift up your skirt, uncover your legs, and wade through the rivers.”
What kids can learn
When you hear millstone in Isaiah, remember the sentence around it. God put this thing in the story on purpose.
