Answer:

3. Matthew--Jews, Mark--world, Luke--Gentiles

Explanation:

The Gospel of Matthew corresponds to Jewish customs and culture and is closely associated with the Jewish people, so we can conclude that the target audience of the Gospel of Matthew was the Jews. This book focuses on the life of Jesus fulfilling Jewish prophecy and its relationship to Judaism and all that is related to it.

It is not known if Luke was a Jew or a Gentile, but it is known that he lived in Syria's Antioch, and is commonly identified as a Gentile. The book written by him (the gospel of Luke) is often related to a book that aimed to present the works of Christ to the Gentiles. The Gospel of Luke presents Jesus not only as God's promised Messiah to the people of Israel, but as Savior of Humanity. He tells us about Jesus' parents, tells us about the birth of his cousin John the Baptist, and focuses primarily on the miracles and holiness that Jesus exercised.

The Gospel of Mark is curiously the oldest and shortest of all gospels, and over sixteen chapters we can identify that it was probably written before the destruction of the Jerusalem temple around 70 AD. Mark's gospel focused on proclaiming the good news about Jesus Christ, emphasizing his constant acting and authority throughout the earth, Mark is believed to have targeted all the people of the world.

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

<em>Slavery was so profitable, it sprouted more millionaires per capita in the Mississippi River valley than anywhere in the nation. With cash crops of tobacco, cotton and sugar cane, America's southern states became the economic engine of the burgeoning nation. Their fuel of choice? Human slavery. Under the law, an enslaved person was treated as property and could be bought, sold, or given away. Slavery lasted in about half of U.S. states until 1865. As an economic system, slavery was largely replaced by sharecropping and convict leasing.</em>

<em>Slavery had been practiced in British America from early colonial days, and was legal in all thirteen colonies at the time those colonies formed the United States. Under the law, an enslaved person was treated as property and could be bought, sold, or given away. Slavery lasted in about half of U.S. states until 1865.The first 19 or so Africans to reach the British colonies arrived in Point Comfort, Virginia, near Jamestown, in 1619, brought by British privateers who had seized them from a captured Portuguese slave ship. Slaves were usually baptized in Africa before embarking.</em>

Just one month after writing this letter, Lincoln issued his preliminary Emancipation Proclamation, which announced that at the beginning of 1863, he would use his war powers to free all slaves in states still in rebellion as they came under Union control.
