Why does Edwards claim that nonbelievers are akin to spiders in "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God"?

English

He is saying that they are like spiders who weave webs to survive without knowing that their webs are too weak to withstand real threats: just like the web won't be strong enough to stop a rock falling through it, their good deeds won't be enough to save them from hell fire.

In this sermon, Jonathan Edwards is urging his congregation (and by extension, all of the nation) to repent of their sins and pray for forgiveness before it is too late and they go to hell.

Read this sonnet, and then complete the sentences that follows. Be not dismayed that her unmoved mind Doth still persist in her
motikmotik

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

1. English

Edmund Spenser is English. He varied the traditional Shakespearean English sonnet form by changing the rhyme scheme which creates couplet links that connect the quatrains together.

2. abab bcbc cdcd ee

Spenserian sonnets repeat the last rhyme as the first rhyme of the next quatrain. This continuation of a rhyme from quatrain to quatrain ties them together more than previous sonnet forms.

3. lasting love

The poet uses phrases like "endure for ever" and "naught but death can sever" to show how long love can last.

4. metaphor

He is comparing the burning oak to the patience it takes when wooing. He does not use like or as which would indicate a simile. Also, the oak is not being given human traits which is required for personification.

5. knot

He compares the depth of love to a knot so tightly tied and tangled that it cannot be undone.
