silver in Genesis 24
SIL-ver
This thing shows up in Genesis 24:35: “Yahweh has blessed my master greatly. He has become great. He has given him flocks and herds, silver and gold, male servants and female…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Genesis 24:35
“Yahweh has blessed my master greatly. He has become great. He has given him flocks and herds, silver and gold, male servants and female servants, and camels and donkeys.”
What kids can learn
When you hear silver in Genesis, remember the sentence around it. God put this thing in the story on purpose.
