Most athletic in the bible (hell, Moses, Jesus, Israel)

[EdwinM]

which bible characters possess superior athletic abilities? I know about Samson who was strong, are there any other ones? A building collapsed on Samson and died? the Hulk would of survived that

Most athletic in the bible?

He who has fought the good fight; and completed the course.
It's more than mere muscle that counts.

[cupper3]

Jonah.

Who else could hold their breath for three days while inside a fish?

Even Moses and His brother Aaron climbed mountains when they were in very old age ..... Like Abraham was one hundred and seventy years old when he pass on from this world , years after God forbid people living that long which he must have been very healthy

All the Israelites around the time of Moses who worked so hard as slaves, working the rocks, hard labor, they must have been very strong.

Hello EdwinM.

I'm going to go with Ehud. I know he's a little-known Judge, but he was quick enough to catch Elgon unaware, strong enough to sink his short sword so deep in Elgon's gut that it couldn't be extracted, and crafty enough to make good his escape. Then factor in that he was a lefty, which is advantageous in many sports.

Thanks.

It would have to be Jesus- his vertical leap was infinite - right to heaven.

he was able to walk on water and come back from the dead, that's impressive

Peter walked on water too for a minute, when he saw the Lord on the water, Jesus bid him come to him. Peter actually walked on the water for a bit, til he realized he was walking on water, then he fell but Jesus caught him. That was pretty cool!
