He has a bit of a humanistic side to him: “After a long time the king of Egypt died. The Israelites groaned under their slavery‚ and cried out. Out of the slavery their cry for help rose up to God. God heard their groaning‚ and God remembered his covenant with Abraham‚ Isaac‚ and Jacob. God looked

    The book of Aeneid is writing by Virgil who tells a story about a legendary Trojan who traveled to Italy who became an ancestors of the Romans. The age of Augustus is also about a leader that ruled in the Roman emperor. Augustus told Virgil to write a story about a hero and Virgil did as he was told.
