So much so in fact, that Robin no longer recognized who was in the band. Furthermore, the increased size of the group made it difficult for Robin to lead and it degraded their vigilance. Also, due to the success of the band's raids, fewer wealthy people traveled the paths that they pillaged. Another problem the group faced was their decreasing food supply. Due to the increase of men, the group had to hunt more. This caused the game too thin out so much that the band had to spend their funds getting food in neighboring towns. These factors made it difficult for Robin Hood lead the group. With the threat of the Sheriff becoming stronger, Robin Hood must make some very important decisions so the band can continue.

<br>People can learn a lesson not only about glory, but of bravery also. Besides glory, bravery is used throughout the novel also. An example of this is when Sir Brian de Bois-Guilbert dies for Rebecca. Ivanhoe demonstrates bravery when he fights Brian to repay Rebecca for her care when he is hurt. He is also very brave when he fights for his Saxon image. Even though he is not a major character in this book, Robin Hood also shows bravery. He robs from the rich and gives to the poor which breaks certain parts in the Code of Chivalry. Through his actions, he fulfills part of the Code.

The ideal supremacy from his legends depicts him as being a knight in shining armor, but the history from his ballads tells otherwise.

Robin Hood was a man who loved life and sought adventure in every aspect of his life. Although, he has a made some mistakes he typically tried to do good. He loved people, especially women and children. I would not consider him a true follower of a Christ, but rather a man who does good works. In Titus 3:5 it says, “Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit.” (New King James Version, Tit. 3.5) This verse is basically saying that you cannot get to heaven through good works.
