Let's find it! (A-Z search of bible topics)

[Ahuvah]

I use this game or used to when my kids were smaller in family worship. It's fun gets them to know their bible and gives them a good sense of how our

brothers and sisters lived in biblical times.

 

It's really easy and there are only two rules: one to follow the letters in sequence when at all possible (some letters won't have words to go with them just move onto the next letter) and two: Cite a scripture next to each word you find.

 

Some of the topics we will choose will be in this order:

 

Food (yay!)

Clothing

Animals

People's names

Tools

 

etc etc. Any suggestions please let me know.

 

Right let's start with Animals - my job will be to find an animal starting with 'A' and a scripture to go with it. Then the next poster will do 'b'. Have fun!

 

I don't expect to see bacon in B - btw.

My guess is:

 

"Ant" - Proverbs 6:6 Yesss you can eat them ... with honey or chocolate. Just saying.

[NSSewer]

Bees ~ Isaiah 7:18,19  “In that day Jehovah will whistle for the flies from the distant streams of the Nile of Egypt and for the bees in the land of As·syr′i·a, and they will all come and settle down on the steep valleys, on the rocky clefts, on all the thornbushes, and on all the watering places."

Remember this topic is food ... when we have been through the alphabet once then whoever has 'A' can choose the topic.

Insects - Lev. 11:20-23:Every winged swarming creaturea that goes on all fours is something loathsome to you.

21 “‘Of the winged swarming creatures that move on all fours, you may eat only those that have jointed legs above their feet for leaping on the ground. 22 Of these you may eat: various kinds of migratory locusts, other edible locusts, crickets, and grasshoppers. 23 All other winged swarming creatures with four legs are something loathsome to you
