Session 2 Lesson 2: Characters
Watch
This BibleProject video presents the important details the Bible conveys about characters. Physical descriptions, symbolic names, and limited commentary all provide insight into the real-life characters in the Bible.
Teacher Tip
When teaching students about the narrative books of the Bible—especially younger children—it's important to emphasize that the people and events in the Bible are real, not fictional. To reinforce this, consider using terms like “people from the Bible” instead of “Bible characters,” and “events” or “biblical truths” rather than “Bible stories.”
