Moses and the Words for Everyone

About this story

Are Bible stories for children too? Join Eli, Maya and Mum as they explore Moses’s instructions for sharing God’s law with the people of Israel. Moses writes down the law and gives it to the Levitical priests and Israel’s elders. He tells them to read it aloud at the end of every seven years, in the year of release, at the Feast of Booths. Men, women, children and resident foreigners are to gather, hear, learn to honour God and carefully follow His law. Children who do not yet know these words are included too. This selected retelling depicts Moses giving instructions for a future public reading. Grown-up notes explain the seven-year timing, debt release, the feast and the covenant context. Separate modern garden scenes show Eli, Maya and Mum making room for questions and learning a little at a time. Children can listen, look, point, draw or use communication aids. The 29-page digital edition includes fourteen distinct illustrated story scenes, Bible references beneath relevant passages, seven questions, My Little Caring Plan, a prayer and two activities: Make Room Together and My Question Picture. The PDF has searchable interior text; the matching fixed-layout EPUB preserves the illustrated pages and requires a compatible EPUB 3 reader.
