"Let brotherly love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, but thereby some have entertained angels unawares
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

The theme of hospitality which can be seen in various instances and teachings in the Bible can also be seen in numerous instances in "The Odyssey". The Greeks highly hold the value of hospitality in their approach and treatment of guests, including strangers, which is nothing new according to Christian beliefs.

Explanation:

The theme of hospitality has been a part of human existence and quality since ages ago. This virtue is also seen in the Bible, where numerous prophets have talked of the need to entertain strangers where "<em>some have entertained angels unawares"</em>. (Hebrews 13)

Likewise, this extending of hospitality to one's guests is a common feature in Homer's "The Odyssey" where we can see numerous instances of guests being warmly welcomed in their journeys. Some have even housed "gods" who were disguised. Another feature of this virtue is the Greeks' attitude of sending their guests off with gifts, for they believed that the same may one day fall on them and when that day arrives, they may also be treated the same way. One example is that of Odysseus' time in the land of the Phaeacians (Book 6-8). Not only was he welcomed warmly, he was given a safe stay and then departed with a number of gifts. Such was the etiquette of the humans even in ancient Greece, almost similar with that of how the believers in the Bible were taught to be.  The Christian brotherly love of friendship and hospitality is all the same to the Greeks who also seemed to have an unwritten rule of being hospitable to everyone, even strangers.

When the person performing the action in the sentence is also the object of the sentence, the writer should use a (possessive, r
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

C: Reflexive.

Explanation:

A pronoun is a word that is used in place of a noun. This means that pronouns replace the noun in a sentence to avoid repetition and to make the sentence seem or sound smoother.

When a pronoun is used to refer to a person doing the action and also is the object of the sentence, then that pronoun used will be reflexive in nature. This means that the pronoun reflects the subject as well as the object refers to the same person. This is easy to identify by the presence or use of "self/ selves" in the suffix of a pronoun.

For example, in the sentence <u>"She ate the whole cake herself"</u>, the pronoun "she" does the action "ate" and then refers back to "herself" which makes the pronoun reflexive in nature.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
