Places
Galilee in Matthew 28
GAL-ih-lee
This place shows up in Matthew 28:7: “Go quickly and tell his disciples, ‘He has risen from the dead, and behold, he goes before you into Galilee; there you will see him.’…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
Matthew 28:7
“Go quickly and tell his disciples, ‘He has risen from the dead, and behold, he goes before you into Galilee; there you will see him.’ Behold, I have told you.””
What kids can learn
When you hear galilee in Matthew, remember the sentence around it. God put this place in the story on purpose.
