History
1 answer:
qaws [65]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  • His accomplishments
  • His impact on the world
  • Stories told about him
  • Because we decided that he was great

Explanation:

In his video about Alexander the Great and how he became great, John Greene gave reasons for how Alexander became great.

The first was his accomplishments. Alexander the Great conquered the largest empire at the time, Persia, which was a massive undertaking considering that the Persians had almost conquered Greece sometime before.

His impact on the world was another reason for his greatness. With his feats celebrated and passed through time, so many adored and wanted to be like him from Julius Caesar to Napoleon Bonaparte. During his conquests he also created cities and settlements that would ensure his name lasted through the ages such as Alexandria in Egypt.

The third reason for his greatness was the stories told about him. Sometimes these stories bordered on mythology littered with feats of heroism and and it served to paint the picture of a great young general who conquered the world with sheer guts and brilliance.  

The fourth reason was that humanity decided that he was great by choosing to idolize him so much so that he became the role model of many.  Even in villages in Africa and South America it is possible to find people named Alexander. Such is our admiration of him. This is why he is Great.

______ objected to the anointing of Jesus' feet because the oil was costly.
dsp73

The correct answer is: B. Judas

Explanation: Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. Here a dinner was given in Jesus' honor. Martha served, while Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with him. Then Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus' feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume. But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray him, objected, "Why wasn't this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year's wages." He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it. "Leave her alone," Jesus replied. "It was intended that she should save this perfume for the day of my burial. You will always have the poor among you, but you will not always have me."
