Answer:

I would say the correct answer is D . Without her husband, a woman would lead a life of total misery.

Explanation:

In this passage, Jennings says that <u>both nature and "mankind" have made the man superior to his wife</u>. Some of his rights are "natural", others "acquired", but he has them all and his wife (obviously) none. It follows that a woman is utterly devastated if she chooses not to adapt and even submit to her husband.

This is not a general statement about avoidance of conflict. Nor is it about the man's social connections and influence - Jennings clearly thinks that man's power doesn't stem from social circumstances alone, but from nature too. It's not about women's education (or lack thereof) either. That part is not even mentioned.

What does the verse in Song of Solomon 5:16 mean “His mouth is most sweet “thank you very much
CaHeK987 [17]

Hi there! Are you reading the Bible? I very much enjoy to read the Bible as well. And, sometimes to understand the Bible you need someone to guide you. If you have any questions you can come to me anytime.

Let me explain, this story is not about two lovers and the singers, King Solomon,  the Queen of Sheba and the singers as many have proposed. Instead this song is a love story of a shepherd boy and a country girl, a Shulammite.

As described by the book published by the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society “All scripture is inspired by God and beneficial” states: “The material in the book is presented through a series of conversations. There is a constant change of speakers. The persons with speaking parts are Solomon the king of Jerusalem, a shepherd, his beloved Shulammite, her brothers, court ladies (“daughters of Jerusalem”), and women of Jerusalem (“daughters of Zion”).”

Now, what does the girl mean when his lovers “mouth is most sweet” or as my Bible translation states: “His mouth is sweetness itself”? What she means is that her lover says sweet things with his lips. His lips are sweet because they express through words desirable and beautiful things she needs to hear. She is in love with him, and hearing beautiful words from his lips livens more her love for him. Based on Elliot‘s commentary, he states: “His mouth is most sweet.—Literally, his palate… his voice is exquisitely sweet. Palate, is used of the organ of speech and speech itself”. The Bible Translation of the New World states: “Your palate is sweet”.

1. Choose the definition below which matches the bold word in the following sentence:
m_a_m_a [10]

1. I believe the answer is: foreshadowed

Foreshadow refers to the warning of the events that might occur in the future. The foreshadowing is shown especially on this phrase: . . . .<em>portended a disastrous outcome</em> . . . This give warning to the readers to expect some sort of tragedy or disaster might happen to the character as the story move forward.

2.I believe the answer is: Firewood

The mother in the story is not interested in the revolution like the other men in the family did. The main focus of the mother is only to get the things that are necessary to help the family survive in current time, such as obtaining enough food and firewood.

3. I believe the answer is: overnight.

In the story, the soldiers appear without any warning and surprised all the people in that territory. They also seemed really tired from their facial expression and their posture, which indicates that they've been moving without rest for a long period of time.

4. I believe the answer is: His Goat

The goat has eaten all the grass on the place where the narrator initially placed him on. Because the goat is feeling sad and hungry, it decided to found grass to other place, which eventually bring it to the front of the post office where the narrator found it.

5. I believe the answer is the first one

<em>The time keeper started the clock and then stops it abruptly.</em>

The usage of the word 'started' on the sentence above indicates the use of past tenses. But this is followed by unnecessary shift in states by the usage of the word 'stops' (verb+s/es) which indicates the use of present tense.
