Bible verses about food and eating

5 replies

Hi Christian mumsnetters,

I’m buying some camping kit for cooking and I can get it engraved for free. The camping cooking kit is for when I go to a Christian festival so I thought I might get some bible verses related to food, eating or hospitality engraved on it. Do you have any suggestions?

I have 175 characters in 5 rows, up to 35 characters per row. I will save the last row for the reference (book, chapter, verse(s)).

Ideas I had so far:

Jesus cooks breakfast for the disciples on the beach (one of my favourite gospel stories, John 21)
Breaking bread after the Road to Emmaus (Luke 24)

But there must be others, what comes to mind? Especially appreciated are ideas I would not have thought of. I Googled and founds some lists but you might have other ideas. Thanks in advance for any suggestions 🙏🏼

@erinaceus Just for starters:

Mark 7: Jesus said that what we eat cannot defile us (ie all food is clean, except that food which has been sacrificed to idols)
John 6: Jesus said He is the Bread of Life.

Psalm 34:8

"Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him"

Or Ecclesiastes 9:7

"Go, eat your food with gladness, and drink your wine with a joyful heart, for God has already approved what you do."

Thanks @Thegreatestoftheseislove and @DistractMe I like all of these.

I am also considering Psalm 136.24

He gives food to every creature.
His love endures forever.

Another option is a verse about camping, or tents.

Matthew 4:4 Man cannot live on bread alone.
