Experiment - OT: Joseph (5) Joseph's brothers in Egypt - Creating a simple balance scale

A fun experiment to reflect on the Bible story of Joseph meeting his brothers for the first time in Egypt

In our story today, Joseph's brothers went to Egypt to buy grain. They needed to make sure they were being fair and honest, just like we need to be in our lives. To explore this idea, we're going to make our own balance scale! This simple tool will help us understand how weights and measures work and remind us of the importance of being honest, just like in the transactions in Joseph's time.

This activity is part of a comprehensive Sunday school lesson on Joseph's brothers' first trip to Egypt in Genesis 42 and 43.
