What are three ways Constantinople's location was beneficial to the Byzantine empire ?

History

Tcecarenko [31]3 years ago
5 0

Attacking Constantinople by sea was difficult. The strong currents of the Bosporus endangered hostile fleets without shelter. Meanwhile the Golden Horn served as a perfect harbour for the Byzantines in war and peace. During times of war, it sheltered friendly ships. At the same time it allowed Constantinople to receive supplies by sea to withstand long sieges. 

The only landward route to the city lay on its western side. Countless hosts of bloodthirsty enemies approached from this front in the hopes of taking the city. But the land walls of Constantinople continually thwarted their efforts until 1453. In 1453, the Ottomans, relying heavily on gunpowder and cannons managed to breach the ancient walls and overwhelmed the defenders.

Are you surprised to hear what Jesus said about the scribes and Pharisees? Those actions, don't we do the same thing? Who’s glor
slamgirl [31]

I'm not really surprised about what Jesus said about the scribes and the Pharisees because, according to what the Bible relates through the four gospels, which give great indications of the social form in the time of Jesus, people like the scribes and the Pharisees sought to enrich themselves by promulgating the word of God and only pretending.

The Pharisees, as Matthew 23:23 says, did not act with justice or mercy, therefore, I consider that Jesus simply told them something that corresponded to the truth of his hearts.

Very surely today people make mistakes, sometimes we are unjust, some other people are unfaithful or hypocritical, but perhaps what differentiates a current person from the Pharisees is that he does not regularly enact good works pretending to be holy (in most cases cases), but <u><em>we are aware that, as sinful people, we must consider our actions and expect to improve day after day</em></u>.

Personally, I seek the glory of God, because he is the one who has given us all the blessings that we currently enjoy and who protects us at all times, I feel protected knowing that God approves my way of acting.
