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.

For each of the characters, complete the steal chart to determine what you know about each character.
mojhsa [17]

Direct characterization occurs when the author expressly tells the reader about the character's characteristics. Indirect characterization occurs when the author conveys the character's characteristics in other ways.

Speech, thoughts, effect, action, and looks (STEAL) are the five basic modalities of indirect characterization.

<h3>What is the STEAL Analysis of the characters indicated below?</h3>

The S.T.E.A.L analysis for Odysseus is as follows:

  1. Speech: In Lines 34-40 Odysseus makes a speech to announce his intention to revenge.
  2. Thoughts: His thoughts here are to avenge the suitors for squandering his wealth
  3. Effect: This action inflicts fear on others
  4. Actions: Odysseus actually takes the suitors by surprise and kills them
  5. Looks: Homer portrayed Odysseus as a person with uncommon wisdom, eloquence, courage, and endurance. The above action also depicts him as vengeful.

STEAL for Cyclops:

  1. Speech: Odysseus tells the Cyclops his name is Nobody because he knows that if he assaults, the Cyclops would cry out and be asked if it needs aid by other Cyclopes. Naturally, the Cyclops responds that "nobody" bothers or kills it.
  2. Thoughts: The above depicts Cyclops as inhospitable
  3. Effects: The actions of Cyclops make him a fearsome being
  4. Actions: Odysseus and his men are trapped in a cave behind a massive rock by the cyclops Polyphemus. Odysseus cannot escape because only the cyclops is strong enough to move the rock.
  5. Looks: Cyclops is a one eyes being known for eating men

STEAL for Calypso:

  1. Speech: In one of her speeches to Calypso, she tells Odysseus that her heart is not made of iron.
  2. Effect: This creates an impression that she loves Odysseus
  3. Actions: She actually releases Odysseus from captivity hoping that he will stay with her.
  4. Effects: Calypso's interaction with Odysseus reveals aspects of Calypso and Odysseus. Odysseus is sorry for betraying his wife while Calypso is seen as kind-hearted towards Odysseus.

What contribution did Isaac asimov make to the world of modern science
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer: I do not know if this is a multiple choice question or not, but I would contend that through his numerous science works he broadly influenced modern science and sparked the interest, and even the fascination, of the public in the subject.

Explanation: American writer and university professor Isaac Asimov (1920-1992) wrote and edited hundreds of science-fiction and popular science books (and also books on many other topics) for the broad public, which made science and technology more accessible and understandable, and changed the way people thought about those disciplines. His view of robots was particularly influential: he humanized them and contributed to their depiction and their profusion in public culture.
