God's Covenant.

During term four, Year 2 will be looking at the Covenant made between God and man.  We are exploring the stories of Abraham and Moses in the Old Testament and the covenant that they first made with God and how this covenant still exists today.

Our first story that we explored was the story of Abraham and Sarah.  God made a promise to Abraham when he was very old that his decendants would become a great nation.  Abraham and his wife Sarah believed in God's promise and in return they believed he was the one true God and followed God's instrutions.  God chose Abraham because he was a very good man and at this time there were many bad people in the world.  Abraham and Sarah had a baby when Abraham was 100 years old.  Abraham lived to be 175 years old! Watch this Youtube clip to find out more about their story.

This week we will look at the story of Moses who continued God's covenant many years later.  Here is the story of Moses and the 10 comandments.

Here is Isabelle with our own class Holy Bible that we made.  It has all the books of the Old and New Testament.  As we have learnt, The Bible was written over thousands of years by many people.  There are books of stories, poetry, letters and songs.  It is the biggest selling book in the world.
