Color Coriander

Coriander with flower and fruit variations.

 

Description of Botanical Coloring Page: Coriander  is  only  referred  to  in  the  description of  the  manna  (Exodus.  10:  31,  and  Numbers  11: 7),  as a  familiar  object  which  the  manna  resembled. The  coriander  is  very  common  in  grain  fields in the Middle East.  It  was  cultivated  in  Egypt  to  give  a flavor  to  bread,  and  was  probably  used  for  this purpose  also  by  the  Jews.  The  plant  is  cultivated for  its  aromatic  seeds  (or  rather  fruits), which  are  used  for  flavoring  curries,  etc.

Description of Botanical Coloring Page: This  fruit  and  the  melon  have been  long  cultivated  in  Syria  and  Egypt.  The Israelites  in  the  wilderness  mourned  for  these fruits,  where  they  would   have  been  specially grateful  (Numbers  11:  5).  In  Isaiah.  1:  8  the  desolation of  Israel  is  compared  to  a  lodge  (the  outlook raised  on  four  poles)  in  a  garden  of  cucumbers, a  familiar  sight  in  Palestine.

Description of Botanical Coloring Page: Melons  were  lusted  after  by  the  Israelites  in the  wilderness,  with  other  articles  of  food  which they  had  in  Egvpt  (Numbers  11: 5).  Melons  were early  cultivated  in  Egypt.  The  water-melon,  on account  of  its  abundant  refreshing  juice,  was  a great  favorite  there,  as  it  is  to-day  in  most countries  that  have  a  hot  dry  summer.  The common  melon  was  also  cultivated  and  supplied a  certain  amount  of  food,  with  a  sweeter  though less  abundant  juice.  The  Hebrew  word  is abattechem,  and  this  is  still  retained  by  the  Arabs, who  call  both  melons  batteekh.

Click on the image to download largest file.

Description of the Botanical Coloring Page:  The  common  almond  (Amyridalus communis), indigenous  in  the  Mediterranean region,  and  cultivated  in  sub-tropical  countries, is  well  known from  the  early  appearance  of  its flowers,  as  if  they  were  waiting  for  the  milder weather  to  open  their  buds.  The  leafless  branches covered  with  beautiful  pink  flowers  are  among the  first  harbingers of  spring.  The Hebrew name shaked, meaning to hasten or watch, is given  to the  tree  on  this  account.  There  is  a  play on the meaning of the word in  Jeremiah.  1:11, 12.  In  answerto  God's  question,  the  prophet  says,  "I see a rod of an almond tree  [shaked];  "and the  Lord  said, "Thou  hast  well  seen,  for  I  watch  [shaked] over my word to perform  it."  The almond grows wild on  he  higher lands of Palestine, blossoming in January.  Many  varieties  are  cultivated  - the chief  being  the  bitter  and  the  sweet  almond. There  are  frequent  references  to  this  tree  in  the Bible.  Jacob  sent  almonds  as  part  of  his  gift  to Joseph  (Gen.  43.  11).  The  bowls  of  the  golden candlestick  were  designed  from  the  flower  (Exodus 35: 33-35).  When  the  Israelites  rose  against  Moses and  Aaron,  the  Lord  manifested  his  choice  of Aaron  by  causing  his  rod  miraculously  to  bear buds  and  blossoms  and  fruits  before  the morning. In  nature  it  is  first  the  bud,  then  the  flower, and  afterwards  the  fruit,  and  here  the  miraculous is  evident  not  only  in  the  dry  rod  showing life,  but  in  the  three  stages  being  present  at  the same  time.  The  rod  was  preserved  as  a  token against  the  rebels  (Numbers  17).  The  figurative  description of  the  old  man  in  Ecclesiastes  (ch. 12) takes  one  of  its  metaphors  from  this  tree.  The hoary  locks  of  age  suggest  the  whitish  blossom of  the  almond  clothing  the  leafless  branches.

Spying in the Land of Canaan

Description of Coloring Page: Israelites spy on Canaanites carrying giant grapes, evidence of the land's fruitfullness, Scripture Reference for the Coloring Page is Numbers 13:


13 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
Send thou men, that they may search the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel: of every tribe of their fathers shall ye send a man, every one a ruler among them.
And Moses by the commandment of the Lord sent them from the wilderness of Paran: all those men were heads of the children of Israel.
And these were their names: of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur.
Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori.
Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh.
Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph.
Of the tribe of Ephraim, Oshea the son of Nun.
Of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu.
10 Of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi.
11 Of the tribe of Joseph, namely, of the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi.
12 Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli.
13 Of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael.
14 Of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi.
15 Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi.
16 These are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun Jehoshua.
17 And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said unto them, Get you up this way southward, and go up into the mountain:
18 And see the land, what it is, and the people that dwelleth therein, whether they be strong or weak, few or many;
19 And what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be good or bad; and what cities they be that they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds;
20 And what the land is, whether it be fat or lean, whether there be wood therein, or not. And be ye of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the time of the firstripe grapes.
21 So they went up, and searched the land from the wilderness of Zin unto Rehob, as men come to Hamath.
22 And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)
23 And they came unto the brook of Eshcol, and cut down from thence a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bare it between two upon a staff; and they brought of the pomegranates, and of the figs.
24 The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from thence.
25 And they returned from searching of the land after forty days.
26 And they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word unto them, and unto all the congregation, and shewed them the fruit of the land.
27 And they told him, and said, We came unto the land whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it.
28 Nevertheless the people be strong that dwell in the land, and the cities are walled, and very great: and moreover we saw the children of Anak there.
29 The Amalekites dwell in the land of the south: and the Hittites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites, dwell in the mountains: and the Canaanites dwell by the sea, and by the coast of Jordan.
30 And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it.
31 But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.
32 And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of a great stature.
33 And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.
