Places
Kidron in 2 Chronicles 15
KID-ron
This place shows up in 2 Chronicles 15:16: “Also Maacah, the mother of Asa the king, he removed from being queen, because she had made an abominable image for an Asherah; so Asa cut…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
2 Chronicles 15:16
“Also Maacah, the mother of Asa the king, he removed from being queen, because she had made an abominable image for an Asherah; so Asa cut down her image, ground it into dust, and burned it at the brook Kidron.”
What kids can learn
When you hear kidron in 2 Chronicles, remember the sentence around it. God put this place in the story on purpose.
Read 2 Chronicles 15:16 again tomorrow and ask what the place is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
