trumpet in Joshua 6
TRUM-pet
This thing shows up in Joshua 6:4: “Seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark. On the seventh day, you shall march around the city seven times,…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Joshua 6:4
“Seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark. On the seventh day, you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets.”
What kids can learn
When you hear trumpet in Joshua, remember the sentence around it. God put this thing in the story on purpose.
Read Joshua 6:4 again tomorrow and ask what the thing is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
