What does Heck Tate mean when he says "Let the dead bury the dead"

English
1 answer:
vovangra [49]3 years ago
8 0

Some people might think this is a callous act by Jesus. However, Biblical scholars interpret this differently. They say that the disciple wanted to ignore his spiritual responsibilities to go take care of his aging father. Jesus meant that the disciple’s father was spiritually dead and that other people would take care of him. The disciple had to stay true to his religious calling. Although this doesn’t literally mean that the man couldn’t bury his father, it still might sound harsh. A better explanation might simply be that Jesus wanted his disciple to put God first, even before family.

In what way is Zaroff portrayed as Rainsford’s foil?
dalvyx [7]
I believe the correct answer is <span>Zaroff has no conscience, while Rainsford does have a conscience.
As you can see in the excerpt, Zaroff is not opposed to murdering other people, which he considers to be just a type of hunting. He doesn't value human life at all, and is indifferent towards whether they live or die, which is why his character is different from that of Rainsford's.

Damm [24]

Answer:

 "On Dumpster Diving"  is about Lara Eighner who describes his experiences on the street and the art of Dumpster diving. He also goes over how to pick good food V.S. rotten food. Eighner intentionally presents himself as educated not only to disprove any assumptions the reader may have about him based on his socioeconomic status, but also to relate to the target audience. This is effective for the author's argument because by doing this he was able to reach a wider audience such as being published in the Threepenny Review.

Rewrite this paragraph without the figures of speech and idioms.
Elena L [17]

Answer:

One way to rewrite this paragraph without figures of speech and idioms would be:

"We had the greatest vacation ever! We went to a beautiful beach. The sand was extremely white. We lay in the shade of the blowing palm trees all afternoon, watching the butterflies and birds. In the evening, the ocean was incredibly clear. We could look right down into the water and see coral reefs and bright fish. When I told my friends about it, they were all very jealous! They all said they wished they could have gone!"
