GRADE 4&5 SUNDAY-SCHOOL LESSON

RIDDLE S

OUR RIDDLE TODAY IS “Out of the eater came something to eat and out of the strong came something sweet"

LET’S TRY TO SOLVE THE RIDDLE Out of The eater Came something to eat Out of The strong Came something sweet

THE STORY BEGINS WITH AN ANGEL WHO APPEARED TO A BARREN WOMAN

THE ANGEL TOLD HER THAT SHE WILL HAVE A BOY A NAZIRITE OF GOD The mom must not drink wine The mom must not touch anything unclean no razor shall come upon the boy’s head But there were some rules they must abide with:

When the woman told her husband, he believed her and prayed God to see the angel The angel appeared a second time to both of them and told them to keep all what he said Then the angel disappeared in a miraculous way, he ascended in the flame of the altar

THEY NAMED THE BOY “SUN” IN ARABIC IT’S “SHAMS’ OR “SHAMSH” HE WAS VERY STRONG AND GOD BLESSED HIM

ONE DAY A LION CAME TO ATTACK HIM BUT HE DID NOT RUN CRYING HELP HELP! HE FOUGHT THE LION WITH BARE HANDS AND KILLED IT

FEW DAYS LATER HE PASSED BY WHERE HE KILLED THE LION AND SURPRISINGLY HE FOUND BEES BRINGING OUT HONEY FROM IT

“Out of the eater came something to eat and out of the strong came something sweet" DO YOU STILL REMEMBER THE RIDDLE

LET’S TRY TO SOLVE IT AGAIN Out of = From The eater = The lion Came something to eat = The honey Out of = From The strong = The lion Came something sweet = The honey

EACH ONE OF US LIKES TO BE STRONG Who is the Eater or the Strong? What is the sweet that came out of it? Who is really the Strong?
