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,

David

Shepherd anointed king; a man after God's own heart.

Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah., KJV, 1 Samuel 16:13

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.
