Places
Gilgal in Joshua 4
GIL-gal
This place shows up in Joshua 4:19: “The people came up out of the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, on the east border of Jericho.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
Joshua 4:19
“The people came up out of the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, on the east border of Jericho.”
What kids can learn
When you hear gilgal in Joshua, remember the sentence around it. God put this place in the story on purpose.
Read Joshua 4:19 again tomorrow and ask what the place is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
