ring in Genesis 12
RING
This thing shows up in Genesis 12:7: “Yahweh appeared to Abram and said, “I will give this land to your offspring.” He built an altar there to Yahweh, who had appeared to him.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Genesis 12:7
“Yahweh appeared to Abram and said, “I will give this land to your offspring.” He built an altar there to Yahweh, who had appeared to him.”
What kids can learn
When you hear ring in Genesis, remember the sentence around it. God put this thing in the story on purpose.
