tent in Genesis 4
TENT
This thing shows up in Genesis 4:20: “Adah gave birth to Jabal, who was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Genesis 4:20
“Adah gave birth to Jabal, who was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock.”
What kids can learn
When you hear tent in Genesis, remember the sentence around it. God put this thing in the story on purpose.
Read Genesis 4:20 again tomorrow and ask what the thing is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
