A 5 years old could tell me all the colors of the rainbow. I wonder if he or she could tell me its meaning. Today we would be looking at what the rainbow stands for

The earth was dry and Noah could see the dry ground he didn't rush out of the lockdown

The waters flooded the earth for a hundred and fifty days. They were all in the ark for 150 days that is roughly 5 months. The flood covered the highest mountain Mt Everest by 22 feet. They Could not go out of the ark. We can somewhat have an inkling of the restriction. With the lockdown and the irritation of being stuck inside, one can begin to understand just a little bit about being inside the ark.

The restriction. The challenges of living in close quarters with animals. For those whose noses are sensitive, different animals have different smells. The uncertainty of life after the flood

Drawing and coloring a picture of Noah's ark in Sunday school didn't help me under the ginormous structure it was. The ark that Noah built is estimated to be the half of St. Paul's cathedral in London. The ark can hold up to 18 massive ships. That's a lot of work. That kind of work can't be done in secret. It would have required Noah's time and resources and energy. Let's explore the Noah's ark

Rebecca did not resolve the rivalry and friction she had caused between her sons instead, she asked for Jacob to  leave the area that eventually Esau will forget what Jacob had done to him. She was trying to preserve her household -  Where there is conflict we should try to resolve it because after 20 years Esau was still planning to kill his brother Jacob if not for God intervening.

Growing in her relationship with God. As Rebecca joined Isaac's household she must have learnt about the God of Abraham. And we can see her faith as grown that Rebecca learns to enquire from God by herself. She is taking on the faith and walking the walk of faith she saw in the family of Abraham

She was kind to a stranger, who asked her for a drink.  The stranger can see the well and probably   fetch water for himself. But Rebecca did not point this out to the stranger rather  she indulges him and gives him some water to drink.

She noticed if these people were thirst then their camels must be thirst too. She proceeded to offer water to their animals. According to the national geographic, a thirsty camel can drink as many as 30 gallons (135 liters) of water in about 13 minutes.  This generous act would have taken considerable effort and time as she gave water to  10 camels.

For her kindnesses, readiness to serve others and hospitality she received unexpected gifts

“For there are more on our side than on theirs!”  Then Elisha prayed, “O Lord, open his eyes and let him see!” The Lord opened the young man’s eyes, and when he looked up, he saw that the hillside around Elisha was filled with horses and chariots of fire. 2 Kings 6:16-17.

The Passover meal is eaten during the festival of the unleavened bread when the Passover lamb is Sacrificed. ( where did God say this should be done yearly why?)

Jesus knew what Judas was about to betray Him, yet Judas was at the table. Jesus knew what  His purpose was. The purpose of coming to earth was about to be fulfilled. HE was aware of what laid ahead of Him. There was no animosity in Jesus' dealings with Judas. He rather repaid good with the evil Judas was about to do. Judas was part of the meal.

The king on a donkey on a victorious ride seems a paradoxically event. We would see how in spite of the unlikely mode of transportation those who recognize Jesus praised Him.
