Behold: When God Says, “Pay attention!”
One day while I was reading the Bible, a word jumped out at me. It’s a seemingly insignificant word. It occurs so often in the Bible that many commentaries and word study resources ignore it. The word is, “behold.” Look! Pay attention! Take note! Sometimes it’s part of conversations between people and may not have any more significance than when we preface our sentences with something like “look” or “you see.” But maybe we should look a little more closely when Biblical authors use it to highlight what they have written. Maybe we should listen more closely when God says, “Pay attention!” Walk with me through some key places in the scripture when God said, “behold!”
