Continuity can be described as the "thread that links the past and present." It can also be defined as an "uninterrupted duration or continuation" (Merriam Webster Dictionary)

'''EXAMPLE 1:''' "When he came of an age to sustain himself, they lent him money to open a small carpentry shop" (Page 10). 
+
 
+
'''HOW THIS APPLIES TO CONTINUITY:''' This quote shows how people in the past did the same things that we do today.  These include opening a carpentry shop, which still happens today, and acquiring money to start a business, which is similar to starting a company or getting a job. The same things that happened in ancient Israel still happen today in Israel and around the world.  Thus, we see the "thread" between time.

'''EXAMPLE 2:''' "They paid a fair price for the merchandise and made no comment about the constant internal wars or the political problems facing the Israelites" (Page 11). 
+
 
+
'''HOW THIS APPLIES TO CONTINUITY:''' To find this quote's relevance with continuity, we must look to the second part about wars and politics.  It proves continuity by showing how the same wars and political problems that are going on in Israel today were also happening during the past. The violence and unrest that plagued Israel in its ancient days have not ceased. The thread linking the past and present is also evident in this quote.
