COMMENTARY
CHILDREN’S TOYS AND GAMES IN ANCIENT EGYPT
Like all children everywhere, Egyptian boys and girls loved to play games and to play with toys. One Egyptian tomb has a wall painting that shows many of the things they did. Much seems familiar today. Boys liked to roll hoops and play catch. There were two kinds of balls. One was soft, made of rawhide or leather and stuffed with chaff or straw. The other was extremely, hard made of faience, a hard-fired clay that was also used to make dishes. Tug-of-war, with a different name, was a favourite, played with a heavy rope. Egyptian children seemed to have loved leapfrog. They often played it over a long line of ten or twelve seated bodies. Boys raced each other or played war with mock weapons. The more fortunate children had toy horses or chariots. Others imitated the jobs they saw their elders do. But the most popular game was wrestling, especially among the people who could be called peasants. The Egyptians filled tomb walls with paintings of wrestling scenes, reflecting how much even the wealthy ones enjoyed watching it. Sometimes bits and snatches of conversations were written on the paintings. With an arm around his opponent’s leg, one wrestler says, [By your leave, now you will find yourself on your nose. I’ll see to that!] In another scene, a wrestler on top of his opponent says, [Don’t talk so big! See, here we are! Now, watch out for yourself] But the underdog retorts, [Look! I have wiggled around. You are going to have to give in!] Like girls in other times and places, Egyptian girls liked to play with dolls. Some were made of wood, others of faience. Still others, the fine dolls, were made of ivory. They usually had separate wigs that looked like small versions of the wigs Egyptian women wore. These dolls also had their own dresses and dishes. Girls played house and {dress-up. They liked to sing and dance together. Dogs, cats and sometimes birds were favourites as pets. Because of the many crocodiles in the Nile, children seldom went swimming. They could have visited the storyteller in the market instead. Older children could do all of these things, but they also enjoyed playing the same board games that their parents played. Many games children play, is not only much the same throughout the world; they also have not changed much for thousands of years.
Here is a short list of apostolic passages to read and study with parsha Va'eira (#exodus 6:2-9:35), plus links to related commentary.
