Crossword Bible Studies - The Life of Jeremiah: King James Version - Paperback

by Christy Bower (Author)

Jeremiah saw Judah and Jerusalem fall to the conquering Babylonians. His unpopular message urging the king to surrender to Babylon landed him in prison more than once. Through his affliction, he poured out his heart to God, being honest about his doubts, fears, and frustrations. For this reason, some scholars refer to Jeremiah as "the weeping prophet." With Crossword Bible Studies, you'll find the answer to every clue in the words of the Bible. Each clue contains a quote from the King James Version of the Bible and at the end of the clue is the verse reference. If you don't know the answer, look up the verse and fill in the blank to complete your puzzle. These reproducible puzzles are challenging enough for adults, but simple enough for kids because of the fill-in-the-blank format. As you work through the puzzles, don't forget to look up from the details of words and phrases to identify the larger context of what is happening and why. Whether you're looking for crosswords for adults or reproducible Bible puzzles for your church or school, Crossword Bible Studies will meet the need.
