Bible Question: I once read a scripture that I knew was describing today's Christmas tree...of course I cannot remember what scripture. I cannot remember the specifics, but I hope someone knows what I am referring to. I'm sure I did not imagine it. Please help. |
Bible Answer: daylight: The scriptural passage you are trying to recall is probably Jeremiah 10:3,4 which has been interpreted to be referring to Christmas trees. Chapter 10 of Jeremiah, however, is a satire on idolatry and has nothing to do with Christmas trees or the modern custom of decorating them during the season of Advent. The context supports that idolatry, not Christmas trees, is the subject of God's message to the house of Israel. --Hank |
