Places
Carmel in 2 Samuel 2
KAR-mul
This place shows up in 2 Samuel 2:2: “So David went up there with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
2 Samuel 2:2
“So David went up there with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.”
What kids can learn
When you hear carmel in 2 Samuel, remember the sentence around it. God put this place in the story on purpose.
Read 2 Samuel 2:2 again tomorrow and ask what the place is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
