Important Biblical Figures

 

SACRED TEXTS

Individuals such as Abraham, Moses, Joshua, and King Solomon are only a few of the important Biblical figures that help tell the story of the Jewish people. These individuals serve as exemplars for the Jewish people, each having an unique relationship with God and purpose in shaping the Jewish narrative. Biblical figures such as those listed are highlighted not because of their perfections, but because of their humanness. As such, learning and re-learning their stories provide lessons about values, ethics, right, and wrong.
