History
1 answer:
katrin [286]4 years ago
4 0

Answer: so the answer is YES

Explanation:

 

Although Buddhism spread throughout Asia it remained virtually unknown in the West until modern times. The early missions sent by the emperor Ashoka to the West did not bear fruit.

Knowledge of Buddhism has come through three main channels: Western scholars; the work of philosophers, writers and artists; and the arrival of Asian immigrants who have brought various forms of Buddhism with them to Europe, North America and Australia.

The 'come and see for yourself' attitude of Buddhism attracts many Westerners. They are not asked to believe in anything, but to follow the Buddha's advice of testing ideas first.

With the growth of easy travel and communications, the West has been able to find out more about Buddhism in this century than in all the time before. The informality and emphasis on practice of Buddhism appeals to many Westerners.

Match the implied recipients of each Gospel record. Match the items in the left column to the items in the right column.
Drupady [299]

Answer:

1. Jews ⇒ d. Matthew

The Gospel according to Matthew is the first book of the New Testament in the Bible and seems to have been written for a Jewish audience. This is why the book included prophecies and stories from the Old Testament which Jews would be expected to know.

2. Greeks ⇒ a. Luke

The Gospel according to Luke is said to be intellectual in nature. It showed Jesus to be a divine being who was perfect in his ways and spoke with brilliance and eloquence. This is what the Greeks liked at the time and so it is said that this Gospel was aimed at them.

3. Romans ⇒ c. Mark

The Gospel according to Mark tried to explain the Jewish customs and the miracles performed by Jesus. This means that it was not written for those who already knew the ways of the Jews and considering that Israel was under Roman occupation at the time, it was most probably for Roman subjects.

4. All men ⇒ b. John

The Gospel according to John was written as a first-hand account by somebody who was with Jesus and loved him dearly. He wanted people to see that Jesus cared about everyone whether Jew or Gentile which means therefore, that he wrote for all men.
