Guide students to look at how God gradually sculpted His covenant with man throughout Scripture, and how that is evidenced in what man was encouraged to eat. Suggest reading the following passages:
- Genesis 1:29,30; 2:16– God gave plants for food
- Genesis 3:19– Bread was first mentioned
- Genesis 9:1-17– Meat was ordained as suitable food
- Exodus 16:13– God gave the Israelites meat to eat
- Numbers 6:1-21; 1 Samuel 1:11,20; Luke 1:12-17– The diet of the Nazarite vow was given
- Acts 18:18– Paul’s temporary Nazarite vow
- Acts 11:1-18– Peter was called out by God for his views on food
- Romans 14– The Holy Spirit inspired Paul to set some things straight about food and drink
My lesson plan says to view the video introduction of Genesis by Afshin Ziafat. I’ve hunted it and can’t find it anywhere. Please help.
