1. impinge = strike
The word impinge can have various meanings, but in the case above, it means to strike. When 'the rain impinge[d] upon the earth,' it means that it started raining, the rain started striking the earth. To impinge means that something starts, and usually something negative.

2. garrulous = loquacious
The word garrulous refers to someone who talks excessively, likes to talk a bit too much, and usually about something trivial. Loquacious is a fancy word to denote the same thing, although it has a more positive connotation - it refers to someone who can speak nicely.

3. pious = religious
The word pious comes from the Latin word pius, which means dutiful. So when English took this word from Latin, it added a different suffix (-ous), and gave it the meaning of being 'dutiful to God.' So nowadays, pious refers to someone who is devoutly religious.

4. ruinous = dilapidated
The word ruinous refers to something which is in ruins, which is falling apart. The word which means the same thing is dilapidated - both of these words are usually used to describe buildings that are very old, and derelict, and are practically in ruins.

Explain what luther meant by the word indulgence. how are indulgences related to the concept of sin?
timama [110]

The term indulgence is connected to the concept of sin, or actions in opposition to God's laws. In Luther's time, when a person did something that was considered a sin, he or she was required to confess the sin to a selected church authority (usually a priest).

<h3>How are indulgences connected to the concept of sin?</h3>

The Catholic Church leads that indulgences relieve only the temporal punishment resulting from the effect of sin (the effect of rejecting God the origin of good), and that a person is still required to have their serious sins absolved, ordinarily through the sacrament of Confession, to receive salvation.

<h3>What does Luther think about indulgence?</h3>

Committed to the idea that salvation could be reached through faith and by divine grace only, Luther energetically objected to the corrupt practice of marketing indulgences.
