Each looked for an easier triumph, and a result less fundamental and astounding. Both read the same Bible and pray to the same God, and each invokes His aid against the other. It may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just God's assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces, but let us judge not, that we be not judged.

He would sometimes use a translated version of the bible, in this case, he did. This speech is an allusion to his bible, and he means that slave owners get labor produced yet it is not from their own work. Thus it was from the sweat of other men that that they obtained there "bread". There bread symbolizes all of their wealth.

Can somebody help me in Q 2 the second and third part
Mariana [72]
Ok so for number 1 your answer is wrong. When you deposit money you add it to your bank account. Say you have $5 in your bank account, you deposit $10, you now have $15.
So for number 1 your answer should 75 not -75

Number 2:
The opposite of depositing money is withdrawing money. So your answer is withdrawing

Number 3:
Again the opposite of deposit is withdraw, so if you withdraw 75 dollars from her savings account your basically subtracting. So your answer is -75


I hoped this helped :)
