The Bible portrays flawed characters

The Bible presents characters such as Abraham, Jacob, and others as flawed individuals, despite their revered status. These characters, who are often considered heroes, are shown to have committed lies and deceit, challenging the notion of them being virtuous models. The Bible highlights the unvarnished realities of human life, showcasing the struggles and imperfections of the chosen people of God. It provides an unblemished look at real life and emphasizes that everyone, from the most admired to the most flawed, is broken.
