Galatians 5

The Fruit of the Spirit Bible Crossword

15×15 grid · Medium · Ends on Galatians 5:22

Nine words in a single verse, and the King James Version gives several of them a shape you will not find in a modern translation — longsuffering where others say patience, temperance where others say self-control, meekness where others say gentleness. The Fruit of the Spirit makes a grid of all nine, in order, exactly as Galatians 5 lists them.

It is one of the more satisfying puzzles to finish, because the long answers cross the short ones and the whole verse assembles itself in front of you. The closing verse is the one the puzzle is made of.
