Welcome to Gaia! ::

Which person out of The Holy Bible is your favorite to read/learn about and why?

For me, I would say I am fascinated with Esther and Deborah because they were such strong women and they seemed so wise beyond their years.

Also, Moses, because I am fascinated with learning about Egyptian culture that he was adopted into. I wonder what all of that was like for him growing up, but it always amazes me how God freed His people and it stumps me how hard Pharaoh's heart was each time. To see such things happening in front of your eyes and not admitting that it was God's doing is quite something.

Moses is a good one! biggrin

That's a great one, too. <--- I guess I'd probably say this about most Bible individuals...unless maybe someone said their favorite was Jezebel or something lol.

Anyway, I loved how it was even possible that Sarai/Sarah had a baby in her old age. It's quite amazing, it's not even something we could fathom today!

Joseph because he went out on one heck of a limb. It was true, but imagine Mary telling him all that happened and with little to no proof at first he married her and if we are being real, saved her from stoning. I'm sure the Lord showed signs that encouraged to Joseph he had made the right call. But it couldn't have seemed a sure thing in the beginning. Barings of steel that guy.

This is such a hard question. There are so many fabulous people in the Bible.
I might be inclined to say Peter.
