Places
Tarshish in Psalms 72
TAR-shish
This place shows up in Psalms 72:10: “The kings of Tarshish and of the islands will bring tribute. The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
Psalms 72:10
“The kings of Tarshish and of the islands will bring tribute. The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.”
What kids can learn
When you hear tarshish in Psalms, remember the sentence around it. God put this place in the story on purpose.
Read Psalms 72:10 again tomorrow and ask what the place is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
