The "Harry Potter" book series contains biblical themes hidden beneath all the spells, charms and enchantments. . Harry Potter, in my opinion, is very Christ-like and I feel like the book series could be considered a modernized version of the Bible. It resembles Jesus Christ in many ways JK Rowling subtly presented. religious symbolism in his books, such as Harry dying for the wizarding world, just as Jesus died willingly for our sins, they were both resurrected Fawkes, the Phoenix is ​​a symbol of the Holy Spirit, and Harry and. Jesus both knew about sacrifice and selflessness. Additionally, both men endured so much pain and suffering for the people they loved. Every character in the Harry Potter series seems to resemble a person from the Bible. Harry Potter died for the wizarding world, just as Jesus Christ willingly died for our sins. After their death, they were resurrected by a father figure. Harry was resurrected by Albus Dumbledore in some way.

They both saw the enemy, stood up to them, and won. Fawkes, the Phoenix is ​​a symbol of the Holy Spirit. Fawkes saved Harry and Dumbledore from death. When Har... middle of paper ...... achieved many great things in his life that could be interpreted as being God-like. He was awarded the Order of Merlin, first class. God is known as the defender of the weak and Dumbledore was known, before his untimely death, as the defender of Muggles. Much like Jesus, Harry Potter endured a great amount of pain and suffering for the people he loved. Jesus was nailed to the cross and tortured to save all our sins. Harry has been subjected to the Cruciatus Curse several times, stabbed in the arm by a basilisk fang, attacked by trolls, Dementors, Death Eaters, Dragons, Grindylows, Professors, Inferi, etc. Although Harry Potter and Jesus Christ are two very different people, they have a lot in common. Furthermore, the book series and the Holy Bible are two very different works of literature; they have an abundance of comparable themes/features.
