Men in the Bible

The Bible is an historic record of real people. Learn who's who, their relationships, and the meaning of their names.

There are many great men throughout the pages of the Bible. The Bible has stories of military heroes, prophets, preachers and kings who have followed God and given us good examples to follow. While there are many minor characters mentioned in the Bible who are good role models, there are also villians and traitors.
