☀️ 2 Chronicles 4

2 Chronicles 4 is a real chapter from the Old Testament. It starts, “Then he made an altar of brass, twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high.” That is not a motto invented for a poster. It is the first sentence a family hears when this page is opened at night.

Keep going a little further. The chapter also says, “the two pillars, the bowls, the two capitals which were on the top of the pillars, the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars,” 2 Chronicles 4 opens with these words: “Then he made an altar of brass, twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and ten cubits high.” The line to keep is 2 Chronicles 4:11: “Huram made the pots, the shovels, and the basins. So Huram finished doing the work that he did for king Solomon in God’s house:” Carry the word “huram” from that verse into the rest of the day.

The line worth learning out loud is 2 Chronicles 4:11: “Huram made the pots, the shovels, and the basins. So Huram finished doing the work that he did for king Solomon in God’s house:” If the rest of the chapter feels crowded, hold that one sentence until the room is quiet.

What happens first in 2 Chronicles 4? Then try this: Read “Huram made the pots, the shovels, and the basins. So Huram finished doing the work that he did for king…” once more. What does it show you about God? You do not have to finish every verse. You can close the book after the memory verse and still have read the Bible together.
