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 the Botanical Coloring Page: Cumin is the aromatic fruit of an umbelliferous plant, used as a condiment. The leaves are somewhat like fennel, and the fruits have several ridges covered with prickly hairs. The volatile oil is contained in six channels. The fruits (popularly seeds) were separated from the plant by being "beaten with a rod" (Isaiah 28: 25, 27). The Savior charged the scribes and Pharisees with punctiliously tithing the cummin (Matthew 23: 23), which was only inferentialy included in the Levitical law, while they omitted the weightier matters of the law.

Description of the Botanical Coloring Page: Citron is generally said to be the tree referred to in Leviticus 23:40, when the Jews were ordered to take with them the boughs, or rather fruit, of goodly trees at the Feast of Tabernacles. The citron is native of India, and is the most common of the orange tribe in Palestine. Nothing is known as to when it was introduced into Palestine, and it is doubtful whether it was cultivated there at the time the Jews settled in the Holy Land. It is used by the Rabbis in celebrating the Feast of Tabernacles.

"But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves." James 1:22
Not all the heroes are in story-books. No, indeed. Some of them are living quite close to us, but we would hardly guess that they are heroes, because a real hero never tells about the splendid things he does. A real hero, you know, always keeps his heroism to himself. You can always be sure when a boy tells you about the great brave things he has done that he is a bully and not a hero. A hero never talks about himself. Here is a real hero story. It is about a boy who ran an elevator in an old shaky, shackly office building, in Philadelphia. The people who knew him called him Billy. He was a lean, freckle-faced boy, with red hair, and nobody guessed that Billy was a hero. But he was, as this story will show. One day the old building began to tremble and shake, and then one of the walls fell out and the crowd gathered in the street and looked up at the windows of the building where the men and women and little children were, and wondered what would become of them. But Billy never waited to wonder, but ran his old elevator up to the topmost story and came back with it crowded with frightened women and little children. He did that a second time, and a third, and a fourth, and a fifth, and a sixth. Up and down he went for nine times until only one side of the building was standing and the shaft of the elevator was bare and was swaying to and fro like a tree in the wind. The policemen tried to drag the boy away from his post, and the great crowd cried for him to stop, but he pulled the chain and began to rise again to the upper floor. " There's two men up there yet," said Billy, and away he went to the top, facing death every minute, but never waiting to guess what the end might be. Then through the cloud of dust the old elevator was seen coming down and in it there were three people. As it touched the ground, the other wall fell out, but the two men and Billy came out into the street unhurt. You should have heard the people cheer! They knew then that Billy, with his red hair and his freckled face, was a hero, and they wanted to catch him and carry him on their shoulders and make him say a speech and take up a collection for him, but Billy could not be found anywhere. He had slipped off unnoticed through the crowd, for it was supper time, and he had gone home to his mother. This story does not need any sermon. If it did, all that the sermon could say would be: " Do things, don't talk about them. Do brave, kind, heroic, beautiful things, not because people see you, but because you are a hero at heart and because there are brave, kind, heroic, beautiful things to be done, and because God sees you." Hugh Kerr
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." Genesis 1:1
These words are the beginning of the greatest Book in the world. They are the first words of the first verse of the first chapter of the first book of the Bible. The Jews call the book of Genesis " the Book of the Beginnings" because the first word in the Hebrew Bible is the word which our translators have rendered, " In the beginning." It is a splendid name. Genesis is a book of beginnings. It tells of the beginning of the world, of the beginning of man, of the beginning of the Jewish nation, of the beginning of God's promises. Now I think that our text is specially a text for boys and girls. You are all "beginnings" beginnings of men and women. But what kind of men and women you are going to be depends largely on how you begin So I want to say to you first - begin well. A good start means a tremendous lot in a race, and a good start means a tremendous lot in the race of life. Sometimes we are inclined to look upon the years of girlhood or boyhood as a time of waiting. The long, long years stretch out in front of us and it seems as if we never would grow up. But they are years of preparation too - the most important of our life. They are the years when we lay up stores of knowledge, stores of goodwill, stores of character. If you lose the opportunity of getting ready then, you will never make it up. A famous writer tells us that once, when he was a youth, he had a strange dream. He thought that he was an old, old man standing at a window on the last night of the year and looking out into the darkness. He saw a star falling from the sky and he exclaimed in unutterable sorrow, "That is myself!" For he had wasted and misspent his life, and he felt that he was no better than a wandering star that would presently be extinguished in the blackness of night. Then he cried out with a great longing, "Give, oh, give me back my youth!" At that moment the bells rang out to welcome the New Year and the youth awoke to find it was a dream. He had begun to follow wrong paths, but he was still young. Life with its glorious opportunities still lay before him. He could still make it something noble, something worth living. And, boys and girls, you have all got that magnificent opportunity - the opportunity to make something splendid of your lives. Don't wait longer to begin. Begin now. And the other thing I want to say to you is - begin with God. It follows from the first, for you can never begin well unless you begin with God. Will you look again at the text and notice the word that follows - " In the beginning - God." Yes, God is at the beginning of every beginning. There was a famous professor once who was giving a lesson to children about plants and flowers. He explained how the seeds became plants, how the plants became leaves and flowers, how the flowers developed seeds again. Then he went on to tell how all the different parts of a plant were built up of tiny cells, and how all these cells were filled with a wonderful substance called protoplasm, a substance which is contained in all living bodies and which makes them live and grow. Finally he said that no one knew what gave to protoplasm its power of living and growing. That was a closed door, and behind the door was unfathomable mystery. Then one of the children asked a question "Please, sir, does God live behind the door?" And that was the very best answer that could have been given. Behind every closed door, behind every beginning is - God. Behind the tiniest insect, behind the smallest blade of grass is God, and God is love. God is in the beginning of every beginning, and He wants to be in your beginning too. He made you, He made you for Himself, and you will never reach the full glory of your manhood or womanhood unless you take Him into your life. Do you want to make your life noble and grand, do you want to make the very best of it? Then take this as your motto - " In the beginning God." Rev. Hastings
Description of Coloring Page: big fish or whale transporting Jonah across the sea, scripture reference "I sank down to the very roots of the mountains. I was imprisoned in the
earth, whose gates lock shut forever. But you, O LORD my God, snatched
me from the jaws of death! As my life was slipping away, I remembered the LORD. And my earnest prayer went out to you in your holy Temple. Those who worship false gods turn their backs on all God’s mercies. But I will offer sacrifices to you with songs of praise, and I will
fulfill all my vows. For my salvation comes from the LORD alone.”Then the LORD ordered the fish to spit Jonah out onto the beach. Jonah 2: 6-10
