According to the Oxford English Dictionary, a hero is "a man who shows extraordinary courage, fortitude, fortitude, or greatness of mind, in any course of action, or in connection with any pursuit, work or undertaking; a man admired and revered for his achievements and noble qualities." Throughout history the need for such a human being has often been felt. The epic poem Beowulf tells the story of a hero named Beowulf he saves Denmark from several monsters that terrorize it: Grendel and his mother, and later, a dragon In doing so, he becomes a heroic figure In addition to his unique birth and purpose, Beowulf accomplishes many impossible feats and is truly pious to Denmark in his last breaths. In contrast, the Holy Bible tells the story of a similar person called Christ, who was also born to save humanity from evil. Clearly, Beowulf is a representation of Christ, because of the similarity between the their births and their purposes, the impossible things they do and their last moments of life. God's will allows both Beowulf and Christ to be born. A virgin gives birth to Christ because God chooses her to give birth to his son. This Immaculate Conception would not have been possible without God: “Now the birth of Jesus took place as expected: Mary, his mother, was betrothed to Joseph, before they went together, she was found pregnant with the Holy Spirit” (King James Version Matt. 1.18). Likewise, Beowulf's birth is also the result of a superior being: “that woman [Beowulf's mother] can say that in her travail the Lord of the Ages bestowed upon her grace (943-945). Although it does not specifically say that she is a virgin, the word "bestowed" suggests that she is, as it is used later in the poem in the context of the gift. In one of Beowulf......in the center of the sheet......9). Just like Beowulf who had only one of his followers by his side in his final battle, Christ had only one disciple at the time of his crucifixion: "When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple standing by, the one he loved" (John 19:26 ). Ultimately, Beowulf and Christ are abandoned by their followers. Furthermore, Beowulf chooses to fight the dragon, knowing full well that this could lead to his death (2534-2537). His death, therefore, is truly a sacrifice: a sacrifice similar to that made by Christ. Christ could have saved himself but does not: "Do you think that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he will soon give me more than twelve legions of angels" (Mt 26.53)? Beowulf and Christ both sacrifice themselves in the battle against evil. Beowulf's similarities to Christ do not end until his last breath, and even then the parallel exists.
