Places
Lebanon in 1 Kings 9
LEB-uh-nun
This place shows up in 1 Kings 9:19: “all the storage cities that Solomon had, the cities for his chariots, the cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
1 Kings 9:19
“all the storage cities that Solomon had, the cities for his chariots, the cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.”
What kids can learn
When you hear lebanon in 1 Kings, remember the sentence around it. God put this place in the story on purpose.
Read 1 Kings 9:19 again tomorrow and ask what the place is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
