Everyday words
Split
Start with Genesis 22:3, where the Bible uses the word split in a real sentence: “Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac…” The rest of this list stays on that same word so a family can hear it more than once.
