To explain the meaning of this question, first I explain that when we “institute” something, we begin it for the first time. Then I ask the quizzers if they know what a feast is. I show them that each time the Israelites went through difficulties, many of their victories become celebrations that they held every year, just like we have holidays. The reason any of us celebrate holidays is to remember something. Each of our holidays has a different name and each name has a special meaning. The name of this celebration was called “Passover” because the angel “passed over” them. When the Israelites celebrated, they were to “come,” “remember,” and “eat,” thus “com-memory-eat,” or “commemorate.” |

To help remember who came first, Elijah or Elisha, note that J comes before S in the alphabet. |
155. & 156. |
To keep from confusing the rebuilding of the wall and the rebuilding of the temple, picture the wall being built about “knee-high” (knee-high-my-a: Nehemiah). Picture the temple being built by a French man from zee-rubble (Zerubbabel) of the old temple. (This must be pronounced with a French accent to be funny.) |

The kids always wanted to reward Job with twice as many possessions and children as he had before his trial until I explained that it’s twice as many possessions but the same number of children because no one would want twice as many kids! |

To remember what “immutable” means, tell the kids that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles used to be regular turtles, but then they mutated. God will never mutate into a TMNT—He never changes; He is always the same. |

“Justification” or “justified” means that when I accept Jesus as my Savior, God accepts me “just as if I’d” never sinned. |
