    There are many comparisons one can draw between King Saul of the Bible and King Macbeth. This essay is an attempt at discerning similarities in the two stories and drawing a sort of comparative moral or thesis from the two. The astonishing level of similarity between the stories presents an almost obvious sense of reproduction. Many speculate Shakespeare as having taken most of the ideas in Macbeth from King Saul’s story in the Holy Bible. While this has not been technically proven it is almost universally

    My Opinion: The Bible mini-series like many films and TV series about the bible is not perfect. It does tend to leave out some details of certain stories‚ such as in Exodus how after fleeing Egypt Moses marries a woman of a wandering tribe that he encounters in the desert. That being said the series does make a concerted effort to capture the spirt of the stories it tells. The Bible was produced as a way to reach television audiences of people‚ who likely know little about these stories. As to

    The Cross Symbol of Love Most often when the Bible attempts to express God’s love‚ it makes a beeline for the cross of Jesus Christ. The cross is God’s statement of just how much He loves us. When we think of the immensity of God’s love‚ the first thing the Bible often asks us to do is to consider the price that was paid. God’s love is very personal toward us. It doesn’t matter where we have been‚ it doesn’t matter what we have done‚ it doesn’t matter what our experienced
