Look in the Bible. There is a whole chapter written on him.
The prophetic book of Daniel was written approximately 250 years before Alexander was born, and yet it describes him in amazing detail, from his death at a young age, to his being succeeded by four of his generals.


Alexander was the son of King Philip II of Macedon. In 336 B.C., at age 20, he assumed command of the Greek army. After putting down a rebellion in Greece, he began an eastward military campaign that quickly made him the ruler of the earth from Greece to India, where, according to some accounts, he sat down and wept because he had "run out of world to conquer." After he died suddenly at age 33, from an unknown illness, Alexander's kingdom was divided up by four of his generals - Syria went to Seleucus, Egypt to Ptolomy.
