Whether you believe that it is fiction or non-fiction or a little bit of both, there certainly are a boat load of characters. How often are names repeated? It seems to me that in the New Testament, quite a bit, but in the Old Testament (which has a lot more characters), I don't recall a lot of repeated names.

Actually, I never thought "John" and "Jonathan" were different names. - 10/07/2010 12:41:36 AM 435 Views
