A study was conducted dealing with biblical narratives recalled by Israeli students of early childhood education (ECE), explanations they give for their choice and the reflection of these explanations on aspects of their personal and cultural identity. This qualitative research employs case study. It includes an activity which was conducted throughout several years in Bible teaching courses for ECE students. Ninety ECE students in two colleges were requested to recall a biblical narrative, draw it and explain their choice. Findings indicate a stable pattern: the vast majority drew pictures from  Genesis  and the first chapters of  Exodus . Students justified their choice by referring mainly to the meaning of narratives told to them in their early childhood and the narratives’ relevance to their lives and values. Findings reflect aspects of personal components of students’ identity, as well as broader national community components. The importance of this research is in illustrating biblical narratives from  Genesis  and the first chapters of  Exodus  in the memory of students of ECE. The students’ explanations of the Bible stories they remember from their childhood indicate the significance they ascribe to their experiences during this period and the significant role kindergarten teachers play in teaching biblical narratives.
