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,

Milcah daughter of Zelophehad

Daughter of Zelophehad; distinct from Milcah wife of Nahor

Then came the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph: and these are the names of his daughters; Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah., KJV, Num 27:1

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.
