Places
Berea in Isaiah 49
buh-REE-uh
This place shows up in Isaiah 49:20: “The children of your bereavement will say in your ears, ‘This place is too small for me. Give me a place to live in.’” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
Isaiah 49:20
“The children of your bereavement will say in your ears, ‘This place is too small for me. Give me a place to live in.’”
What kids can learn
When you hear berea in Isaiah, remember the sentence around it. God put this place in the story on purpose.
Read Isaiah 49:20 again tomorrow and ask what the place is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
