“The Lord, your God, has multiplied you, and behold, you are today as the stars of the heavens in abundance.” (Deuteronomy 1:10)
Questions: Why are the Israelites numbered like the stars when it is obvious that they are not as many as the stars? Why would someone want to be compared to a star? In other places the Israelites are compared to grains of sand. What do you think is the difference? What would you rather be compared to? Why?
Ideas: Serve star fruit, fruit cut with a star cookie cutter, salami, tofu or veggies can all be cut in star shapes, or make star-shaped pasta.
