Synopsis

"History" is "HIS STORY."It might be easy to assume that a "Bible Hero" is anyone named in the Bible, but it depends on your definition of a hero. To understand what Bible heroes are, we first need to understand what the Bible is. From the perspective of history and literature, the Bible is a library of books, covering thousands of years of history, written by many different authors from diverse cultures. That is helpful and interesting, but there is more. The Bible is the Word of God: God's revelation of who He is and what He has done. The Divine Author has woven a thread throughout the Book that ties it all together: the Big Hero Story. The Bible, the Ultimate Story, is the story of a Hero giving himself for others who don't know or understand why. So, the Ultimate Hero of the Ultimate Story helps us understand what a hero is: someone who does what no one else would or could do so that others might benefit, with no thought of personal gain. In the Bible, the primary "Hero Story" is fleshed out by smaller "hero stories." The Scriptures are a collection of stories that are framed by the Big Story of God's redemption through Jesus Christ. In other words, the small "hero stories" are not disconnected from each other. They are connected and defined by the Big Hero Story.Open this book and learn more about 101 Bible Heroes.
