Answer:

When Edward says that sinners are “hang by a slender thread" he means that every sinner will have to pay for his sinful act and no one can be saved from the God's fury.

Explanation:

‘Hang by a slender thread’ is a line from the sermon ‘Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God’ which is authored by Jonathan Edwards. The sermon focuses on the Great Awakening and it depicts that there is indeed a place like hell.

When Edward said ‘hang by a slender thread’ he meant that sinners are being held by thread over hell and the fury of God will cause them to fall. He states that there’s nothing that can protect sinners from the anger of God.

Read the excerpt from act iii, scene ii of romeo and juliet. juliet: and bring in cloudy night immediately. spread thy close cur
Zina [86]
cloudy night, unseen, and spread thy close curtain are all both phrases that support the motif of darkness. 

A cloudy night means that all of the stars should be covered. When this occurs, it means that the sky is going to be even darker now considering the fact that all sources of light are going to now be covered. Being unseen also supports the idea that it may be too dark out for anybody to see Romeo come to meet up with her, additionally supporting the fact that there was a dark enough setting that Romeo was able to navigate easily in without worry of guards catching sight of him. Spreading thy close curtain directly relates to the darkness and how Juliet is waiting for curtains to come and cover up the sky.

An additional bonus phrase could also potentially be runaway's eyes may wink. Runaway is Juliet's term for the night, although she also considers the stars to be eyes and for them to be blinking. 

I cannot be 100% with this, but I have explained each potential answer. If I am wrong, I would love it if someone could correct me. Thank you.

Answer:

"Ain’t this the living gall!"

"They don't do it like that anymore."

"Lord, Lord, Lord . . ."

Explanation:

These are the three options that develop the idea that racially charged confrontations can have a sudden and unpleasant impact. In the first case, the phrase "Ain’t this the living gall!" describes Ruth's reaction at facing this type of confrontation. She is amazed at seeing the lengths people will go to in order to avoid relationships with black people. The phrase "They don't do it like that anymore" describes how conflicts between white and black people have changed, but continue to be present. Finally, the phrase "Lord, Lord, Lord . . ." describes Mama's reaction at the awareness of being involved in this sort of conflict.

I think Lin- Manuel's writing will continue to be read in the future. In that sense he could be compared to Shakespeare, but I never really liked Shakespeare, and I think Lin's writing is more relatable, and could still be in the future.
