What does the bow and arrow symbolize in Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God?

Marysya12 [62]2 years ago

God's anger is a bow once more.

Edward uses the bow as a metaphor for God's anger. By virtue of justice, the arrow from this bow is continually pointed towards the human heart. The ineffable quality of God's delight is the only thing that prevents Him from sending His due vengeance directly to its intended recipient.

The phrase "the bow of God's anger is bent, and the arrow made ready on the string" used by Edwards is meant to instill a feeling of urgency in his audience. He wants his listeners to understand that God has the right to punish sinners whenever he sees fit.

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

November 19, 1863

On June 1, 1865, Senator Charles Sumner referred to the most famous speech ever given by President Abraham Lincoln. In his eulogy on the slain president, he called the Gettysburg Address a "monumental act." He said Lincoln was mistaken that "the world will little note, nor long remember what we say here." Rather, the Bostonian remarked, "The world noted at once what he said, and will never cease to remember it. The battle itself was less important than the speech."

There are five known copies of the speech in Lincoln's handwriting, each with a slightly different text, and named for the people who first received them: Nicolay, Hay, Everett, Bancroft, and Bliss. Two copies apparently were written before delivering the speech, one of which probably was the reading copy. The remaining ones were produced months later for soldier benefit events.

2) Weeks of wet weather preceding Lincoln's second inauguration had caused Pennsylvania Avenue to become a sea of mud and standing water. Thousands of spectators stood in thick mud at the Capitol grounds to hear the President. As he stood on the East Portico to take the executive oath, the completed Capitol dome over the President's head was a physical reminder of the resolve of his Administration throughout the years of civil war. Chief Justice Salmon Chase administered the oath of office. In little more than a month, the President would be assassinated.

3) On September 22, 1862, President Abraham Lincoln issued the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation, which declared that as of January 1, 1863, all slaves in the states currently engaged in rebellion against the Union “shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free.”
