Read this excerpt from The Land."But what I want you to concentrate on learning now is a skill you can always use, something you can always depend on to earn some money.""Like horse training?""No. Like carpentry. Not just knowing how to nail two pieces of wood together, but how to build something fine and of quality. There'll always be a need for that. The Lord Jesus Christ Himself was a carpenter, so you know you couldn't ask for a better trade. You can use your horse training too, but carpentry is something solid and dependable, and there'll always be a need for it."Based on the historical setting, why does Paul's father want him to learn a trade?

    So he has a solid and dependable way to make money

    Explanation:

    Paul's father wants Paul to always be able to work and support himself with something reliable (carpentry). He feels that hors training is a good hobby but may not always have steady work or if Paul gets hurt training horses (highly likely) then he won't be able to support himself at all.
