SORD
This thing shows up in Genesis 48:22: “Moreover I have given to you one portion above your brothers, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.”” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Genesis 48:22
“Moreover I have given to you one portion above your brothers, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.””
