People of the Bible

Every name in Scripture sits inside a story God is telling. Start with a person; we will open you straight to their anchor passage in the original Hebrew or Greek.

A Doorway, Not a Biography

Scripture: Hebrews 12:1. This index is a navigator, not a retelling. Each figure links to a single anchor passage, the verse where Scripture most plainly introduces or defines them, which you can then read word-by-word, cross-referenced, in the Apologetics Bible. For the deeper journeys of these figures, the Sanctum walks their stories; here, the goal is simply to put you in front of the text. Greek: Τοιγαροῦν καὶ ἡμεῖς, τοσοῦτον ἔχοντες περικείμενον ἡμῖν νέφος μαρτύρων, ὄγκον ἀποθέμενοι πάντα καὶ τὴν εὐπερίστατον ἁμαρτίαν, διʼ ὑπομονῆς τρέχωμεν τὸν προκείμενον ἡμῖν ἀγῶνα,

Pharaoh Hophra

Egyptian pharaoh promised to Nebuchadnezzar's hand; referred to in Jeremiah's oracle

Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will give Pharaoh–hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and that sought his life., KJV, Jer 44:30

Ask Dave About Any Figure

This index opens the passage; Dave opens the figure. Ask him about the Hebrew or Greek behind a name, the chronological placement of a figure's life, their theological significance, or how their story connects to the arc of redemption. The Sanctum people archive goes deeper still for figures in the game.
