Actors in the Bible?

Guvo asked:


Does anyone know of any Bible passages that tell of actors in the Jewish/Hebrew culture? Not so much musicians, but those who acted out roles or stories? Thank you.

Blessings in the Light of Christ!

    I don’t know of any, but I’m sure it’s listed as a sin somewhere in there. (sarcasm)

    I’ve never come across any, unless you count people playing “roles” in order to trick others. As far as I know, theater spread out from ancient Greece.

    I don’t know of anything in the Bible that shows a play, but you might find this fascinating relating to what you are looking for.

    I once was told that in the Biblical era, people who were actors were called “Hypocrites” because they wore masks. So, that is why Jesus called people hypocrites, because those people in question hid their real person behind a facade.

    So, if you want to know more, you may want to do some research on Hypocrites.

    Jesus was a great actor. Look at the fools who still believe his shananigans today.
