Объяснение для детей

Imagine you have a favorite toy that you really like playing with. Now imagine if your parents gave this toy to a friend who doesn't know how to play with it properly and taught them all the fun ways they could enjoy it too. That's kind of what God is doing here, but instead of a toy, he's giving Jesus a special job.
