Description of Coloring Page: Jesus approximately 12 years of age, sits among the rabbi and priests in the temple, halo, room interior
The scripture reference of this coloring page is Luke 2:41-52 (Good News Bible)
"Every year the parents of Jesus went to Jerusalem for the Passover Festival. When Jesus was twelve years old, they went to the festival as usual. When the festival was over, they started back home, but the boy Jesus stayed in Jerusalem. His parents did not know this; they thought that he was with the group, so they traveled a whole day and then started looking for him among their relatives and friends. They did not fine him, so they went back to Jerusalem looking for him. On the third day they found him in the Temple, sitting with the Jewish teachers, listening to them and asking questions. All who heard him were amazed at his intelligent answers. His parents were astonished when they saw him, and his mother said to him, "Son, why have you done this to us? Your father and I have been terribly worried trying to find you."
He answered them, "Why did you have to look for me? Didn't you know that I had to be in my Father's house?" But they did not understand his answer.
So Jesus went back with them to Nazareth, where he was obedient to them. His mother treasured all these things in her heart. Jesus grew both in body and in wisdom, gaining favor with God and men."

The scriptural reference for this coloring page is Genesis 11.
11 Now the whole world had one language and a common speech.2 As people moved eastward, they found a plain in Shinar and settled there.
3 They said to each other, “Come, let’s make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar.4 Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth.” 5 But the Lord came down to see the city and the tower the people were building.6 The Lord said, “If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.7 Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.” 8 So the Lord scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city.9 That is why it was called Babel—because there the Lord confused the language of the whole world. From there the Lord scattered them over the face of the whole earth.
The scripture reference of this coloring page is Genesis 6:14-18
14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt
thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
15 And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of
the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits,
and the height of it thirty cubits. 16 A window shalt thou make to the
ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark
shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third
stories shalt thou make it.
17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the
earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under
heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die. 18 But with thee
will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.
Description of The Coloring Page: this angel is what scholars call an "angelophany." An angel in a human form. Some scholars say this story was actually about a "Christophany." A Christophany is an early, prefiguration of Christ in an angelic form. In other words, it was Jesus who actually wrestled with Jacob, not just any angel. This is because God wants us to struggle for our identity in Christ. Our identity is freely given through the blood atonement but some of us need to struggle for it, in order to appreciate the gift.
Even though Jacob was born before Christ came to earth, Jesus also died for those who waited in anticipation for him as well as those who have been born after his death and resurrection. (Romans 14:9)
22 During
the night Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two servant wives,
and his eleven sons and crossed the Jabbok River with them.23 After taking them to the other side, he sent over all his possessions.
24 This left Jacob all alone in the camp, and a man came and wrestled with him until the dawn began to break.25 When the man saw that he would not win the match, he touched Jacob’s hip and wrenched it out of its socket.26 Then the man said, “Let me go, for the dawn is breaking!” But Jacob said, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.” 27 “What is your name?” the man asked. He replied, “Jacob.” 28 “Your name will no longer be Jacob,” the man told him. “From now on you will be called Israel, because you have fought with God and with men and have won.” 29 “Please tell me your name,” Jacob said. “Why do you want to know my name?” the man replied. Then he blessed Jacob there. 30 Jacob
named the place Peniel (which means “face of God”), for he said, “I
have seen God face to face, yet my life has been spared.”31 The sun was rising as Jacob left Peniel, and he was limping because of the injury to his hip.32 (Even
today the people of Israel don’t eat the tendon near the hip socket
because of what happened that night when the man strained the tendon of
Jacob’s hip.)
