This chp has vivid contrasts between Alexander the Great and Christ.
Alexander Christ
Proud and Haughty Humble , yet king
Ruthless in power Full of mercy and grace
Former rode pompously on high- spirited Entered city on an ass
stead to Jerusalem
Humbled outside the walls Exalted and honoured as he road within gates
Died at 33 in drunken orgy Died at 33 claiming victory of sin and death
Cant remember where I got this comparison (?Hye lecture?)
