The word river is mentioned several
times in the Bible.The river was very important for many reasons.Of course during Bible days, people crossed over rivers daily when traveling and fishing

scriptures that discuss some of these events.

and behold, he stood by the river.

2 Suddenly there came up out of the river seven cows, fine looking and fat; 

and they fed in the meadow.

3 Then behold, seven other cows came up after them out of the river, ugly 

and gaunt, and stood by the other cows on the bank of the river.

of the river.
