The "Urim and Thummim": Did Israel's priests use holy dice to talk to God? Did vou know the High Priests in the Old Testament basically used sacred dice to hear from God? I was studying Exodus 28 about the "Urim and Thummim." Thev were specific stones kept inside the priest's breastpiece over his heart. When the nation had a massive military decision and didn't know what to do, they would cast these stones to get a direct "Yes" or "No" from God It sounds almost like magic to our modern ears, but it was total surrender to God's sovereignty. Sometimes I really wish I had those physical stones today when I'm agonizing over a life choice! But we have something better: the Holy Spirit inside us. #OldTestamentMysteries #UrimAndThummim #HearingGod #Exodus

The "Urim and Thummim": Did Israel's priests use holy dice to talk to God? 💎🤔

Did you know the High Priests in the Old Testament basically used sacred dice to hear from God? I was studying Exodus 28 about the "Urim and Thummim." They were specific stones kept inside the priest’s breastpiece over his heart. When the nation had a massive military decision and didn't know what to do, they would cast these stones to get a direct "Yes" or "No" from God. It sounds almost like magic to our modern ears, but it was total surrender to God's sovereignty. Sometimes I really wish I had those physical stones today when I'm agonizing over a life choice! But we have something better: the Holy Spirit inside us. 🕊️✨ #OldTestamentMysteries #UrimAndThummim #HearingGod #Exodus
