### sense in the lessons

In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: Here a bottle is a skin bag for carrying water, not glass. The prophets and Job also use it for a clay jar, and the psalmist asks God to keep his tears in a bottle. Interpretation: Tradition sees Hagar's empty bottle as a picture of despair, which turned to hope when God opened her eyes to a well. In Psalms, God keeping tears in a bottle shows that He remembers every sorrow, and Job's "bottles of heaven" are the clouds that pour rain. In the primary lessons: a container counted (bottles of water or soda) or a unit holding a set amount of liquid; in science we measure the capacity of a bottle in litres or millilitres; phrases: «a bottle of», «bottle cap», «water bottle», «plastic bottle», «recycle bottles»
