Arrow Class: Genesis 31:48-50

We learned that Laban and Jacob made a covenant or promise and put a pile of rocks together to show that they both agreed! The place was called Galeed, or witness heap and it was called Mizpah! Mizpah means watchtower! Laban wanted God to watch over both of them! He also wanted God to make sure Jacob was treating his daughters well! Today let’s read Genesis 48-49 and make a watchtower out of blocks or get to a high place and pretend it’s a watchtower and ask your Tiny Arrow what they can see from there! When they are high up, they can see more! Just like God can see more since He is high!

Then Laban declared, “This mound is a witness between you and me this day.”
Therefore the place was called Galeed. It was also called Mizpah, because Laban said, “May the LORD keep watch between you and me when we are absent from each other. If you mistreat my daughters or take other wives, although no one is with us, remember that God is a witness between you and me.”
