Edwards delivered his famous sermon during a revival movement intended to reinvigorate church attendance and bring more converts into the faith. He recognized that people were drifting away from church and relegating their faith to the background of their lives. The entire sermon is designed to shock listeners and instill a sense of urgency in their return to religion.

Edwards likely believed that Hell was an abstract notion to many of his listeners, and so he loaded the sermon with horrifying sense imagery to try to convince the congregation that Hell was a concrete place of eternal tortures.

can someone give me a short summary of act 5 of romeo and juliet but from romeos perspective please ? QUICKLY

Simora [160]

Answer:

On Wednesday morning, on a street in Mantua, a cheerful Romeo describes a wonderful dream he had the night before: Juliet found him lying dead, but she kissed him, and breathed new life into his body. Just then, Balthasar enters, and Romeo greets him happily, saying that Balthasar must have come from Verona with news of Juliet and his father. Romeo comments that nothing can be ill in the world if Juliet is well. Balthasar replies that nothing can be ill, then, for Juliet is well: she is in heaven, found dead that morning at her home. Thunderstruck, Romeo cries out, “Then I defy you, stars”

He tells Balthasar to get him pen and paper (with which he writes a letter for Balthasar to give to Montague) and to hire horses, and says that he will return to Verona that night. Balthasar says that Romeo seems so distraught that he is afraid to leave him, but Romeo insists. Romeo suddenly stops and asks if Balthasar is carrying a letter from Friar Lawrence. Balthasar says he is not, and Romeo sends his servant on his way. Once Balthasar is gone, Romeo says that he will lie with Juliet that night.

Why does guck decide to steal back the sisters money? What is it about them that he has rarely encountered in other people?

krek1111 [17]

Why does Huck decide to steal back the sisters' money? What is it about them that he has rarely encountered in other people?

They are orphans who are about to lose their homes.

They are kind, generous, and friendly to him.

They are much younger than he is and will be sent away.

They are better off financially than most people.

We can actually infer here that Huck decides to steal back the sisters' money because he saw that Dauphin doesn't deserve it. Huck then hides it in a coffin.

The thing about them that he has rarely encountered in other people is that they are orphans who are about to lose their homes.

Thus, option "A" is correct.

<h3>What is Adventures of Huckleberry Finn?</h3>

"Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is actually known to be a novel that was written by Mark Twain. It was published first in 1884.

We see that Huck actually saw that Dauphin didn't actually deserve the money.

Thus, option "A" is correct.

Humans impact the physical environment in many ways: overpopulation, pollution, burning fossil fuels, and deforestation. Changes like these have triggered climate change, soil erosion, poor air quality, and undrinkable water. ( please take notes)
