Places
Capernaum in Mark 1
kuh-PER-nay-um
This place shows up in Mark 1:21: “They went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
Mark 1:21
“They went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.”
What kids can learn
When you hear capernaum in Mark, remember the sentence around it. God put this place in the story on purpose.
Read Mark 1:21 again tomorrow and ask what the place is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
