Persons of the Bible

Backgrounds, insights, statements


The people in the Bible have different names, were born in very different times, and faced very different challenges. How are these people named and described in the Bible and what do they say there?

This is predominantly about an understanding as we can read it from the Bible itself. The picture is certainly incomplete, but at least you can read what is known of these people in this context. They are often valuable insights into the times, their concerns, and what message they were traveling with in their time.
