Miriam in Deuteronomy 24

This person shows up in Deuteronomy 24:9: “Remember what Yahweh your God did to Miriam, by the way as you came out of Egypt.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real person in a real place.

Deuteronomy 24:9

“Remember what Yahweh your God did to Miriam, by the way as you came out of Egypt.”

What kids can learn

When you hear miriam in Deuteronomy, remember the sentence around it. God put this person in the story on purpose.

Read Deuteronomy 24:9 again tomorrow and ask what the person is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
