Bible Discussion Thread

In the time of when Moses lead the children out of Egypt, is it true that the clothing they wore grew with them when they grew? Such as, shoes, even when children were small,when they grew did the clothing grow with them. Was this a gift from God? Did they question it? Can I find this in scripture?

With respect and affection . Here r a few scripture references that indicate how a Christian should think and feel about their earthly possessions , Deuteronomy Ch 2 V 7 , 1st Corinthians Ch 4 V 7 and Matthew Ch 6 V 19-34 . Hope u enjoy them .

Deuteronomy 8:4,

Hi Tamala,

Hmm I do not think the clothing grew with them, Children who outgrew clothing were given bigger clothing that was passed down from older children. And they may have made new clothing for new babies born during the wilderness years. But as for the adults, they were able to wear the same clothing for the entire 40 years and it did not wear out. Neither did the children's clothing; it was just passed down to younger ones when outgrown. We need to remember that in these times, people did not have many sets of clothing. They wore the same clothing day after day until "wash day" when they came to water sources to bathe and clean their clothing. so, people then did not have a wardrobe of clothing as we do now.

Hope this helps.
