Hoplon (Message Card)
The Greek soldiers were given the name Hoplite due to their radical connection to their shield, the Hoplon. This shield was a heavy wooden and bronze circle that covered the soldier from neck to knee. These world-conquering soldiers had a unique approach in battle called the Phalanz formation...but their shield defined them. Each man understood his shield was what stood between the enemy and themselves, their brothers-in-arms, their families and homes. Their shield stood as a symbol declaring the truth of their focus...Unwavering. Steadfast. Watchful. Standing firm.
"Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong." -1 Corinthians 16:13
"No soldier gets entangles in civilian pursuits, since his aim is to please the one who enlisted him." -2 Timothy 2:4
