Solomon's Temple (New Superbook Series)

Chris realizes that he won't be able to attend the National Competition Finals with his Rampaging-Robots team and the robot he designed! Superbook appears and whisks the kids away to Ancient Israel where they meet King David's son, Solomon, who will build the Temple of the Lord his father designed. Chris is amazed and a little confused how King David could design and prepare such an amazing structure, only to have someone else build it. Chris learns that it is the Lord’s plan that succeeds, and that being a part of His plan is the best plan of all. After returning home, Chris accepts that while he can't attend the competition, he can still give his team the game winning plan and strategy, which they use to win the championship trophy.

Solomon's Temple (Vision Video)

3D Animated. Running time is 30 minutes. Takes you on a visual tour of the temple.

Overview:  Starts of with words on screen of God’s disappointment in us (story of Noah) with storm clouds gathering and lightening.  Then goes into story of Abraham and the almost sacrifice of Issac – during the song sung by Michael Card.  Then goes into Solomon retelling his son Rahabom the story of the building of the temple and while he talks it takes you through a 3D animation of the temple.

Say:  As you watch the video you will see a picture of a lamb and an image will appear over it each time, see if you can see what that image is? (Jesus being crucified).

You will need to have a sheet with details of the different items to pause and discuss as you view the video, as the video does not go into details.
Pause after to discuss/explain:

Altar
Basin
Where did riches come from?
What are true riches and wealth?
Pillars
Furniture – lampstands, table
Covenant

After last image at end of song you could pause video and ask:
So what was the image that always appeared over the lamb? (Jesus)

Say: I wonder what the connection is between Jesus and the lamb? Pause for responses
The  people use to sacrifice animals but Jesus sacrificed himself for all our sins – so now we no longer have to make animal sacrifices to God.
