Answer:

The context clues which would be the most helpful in determining the meaning of asunder are: tore and pieces.

Explanation:

Asunder is an archaic adverb, which means we do not use it much nowadays. It means apart, divided, or into pieces. Supposing we did not know that definition, we could easily guess the meaning of asunder by finding context clues in the sentence where it appears. <u>In this case, there are two words that can easily help us understand what asunder means: tore and pieces. Tore, the past form of the verb tear, means to rip something apart. And pieces, of course, mean a portion, chunk, or segment of something. If Adam tore something asunder and then threw the pieces, we can safely guess asunder has something to do with making those pieces, breaking or ripping something.</u>

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are so many metaphors that can be used if he is looking at the concept of mercy from the Bible. In the book of Roman 3 vs 23. "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (New King James Version (NKJV))." This shows that every human being is not perfect in one way or the other. If God was to consider the sins of human to punish them, no human will be alive today. This is because the same bible describe the righteousness of human as a filthy rag before God. However, in the next verse of the same Romans 3 vs 24, it reads:

" and are being justified [declared free of the guilt of sin, made acceptable to God, and granted eternal life] as a gift by His [precious, undeserved] [a]grace, through the redemption [the payment for our sin] which is [provided] in Christ Jesus (Amplified Bible (AMP))." From this verse, it therefore signify the amount of mercy humans have received from God. This verse made it clear that it is undeserved(That's why they are bolded for emphasis). So man deserved to die due to sin, however, the death of the son of God(Jesus Christ) on the cross has paved way for redemption and mercy.
