Anonymous Account of the Boston Massacre THE HORRID MASSACRE IN BOSTON, PERPETRATED IN THE EVENING OF THE FIFTH DAY OF MARCH, 17

70, BY SOLDIERS OF THE TWENTY-NINTH REGIMENT . . . In passing to this station the [British] soldiers pushed several persons with their bayonets, driving through the people in so rough a manner that it appeared they intended to create a disturbance. This occasioned some snowballs to be thrown at them which seems to have been the only provocation that was given. . . . Captain Preston is said to have ordered them to fire, and to have repeated that order. One gun was fired first; then others in succession and with deliberation, till ten or a dozen guns were fired; or till that number of discharges were made from the guns that were fired. By which means eleven persons were killed and wounded. Anonymous, 1770 Each of these statements is supported by this anonymous account of the Boston Massacre EXCEPT A) the colonists fired on the British in self defense. B) Captain Preston repeatedly ordered his soldiers to fire. C) the British soldiers charged at the colonists with bayonets. D) the only action the colonists took against the soldiers was to throw some snowballs.

<span>Each of these statements is supported by this anonymous account of the Boston Massacre EXCEPT the colonists fired on the British in self defense. The British fired on the colonists, who were not armed with guns. This source indicates that the colonists threw snowballs at the soldiers, but only after being pushed by the soldiers' bayonets.</span>

Answer:

It is likely that Elijah's servant was feeling cheated at first and was annoyed by Elias' insistence, but after the rain came down, his feelings changed and he began to see Elias as a great leader and a man of God.

Explanation:

This question refers to the biblical reading present in 1 Kings 18: 42-45, where Elijah had prophesied that it would rain in the region that had not rained for a long time. However, Elijah had spoken to God and had faith that the rain would come.

For this reason, he caused his servant to go up a hill, look towards the sea and see if there were any clouds as a sign of Rain. In doing so the servant reports that the sky is clear and that there is no sign that it will rain.

Then Elijah orders him to go up seven more times, which may have upset the servant and may have stimulated thoughts that he was being deceived by Elijah. However, after climbing seven times, the servant claims that the sky has a small cloud, the size of a man's hand. So Elijah says that this is the sign that it is going to rain.

The servant must have thought that Elijah was crazy, but after a few minutes it started raining with vigorous worms, which must have changed the servant's feelings towards Elijah, who was now seen as a man of God, prophet and leader.

Bible characters that managed their time well and how they managed their time
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer: Joseph, Daniel and Nehemiah managed their time well and achieved great results

Explanation:

The following are Bible characters who managed their time well and how they managed it;

1) Joseph; despite the ugly situations he faced for being hated by his siblings Joseph was one individual who managed his time well. He spent most of his time either explaining dreams or managing his master's properties till he became the prime minister of Egypt. He managed his time well by not allowing the ugly states he went through to define him rather to keep working on those moments till the best time came.

2) Daniel; Daniel was one principled man in the Bible. It was recorded that he prayed thrice a day, this implies that he had a schedule which would also mean that he understood what time management meant. He served in the cabinet of the king and his wisdom was second to none based on the decisions he took.

3) Nehemiah; Nehemiah understood how important time was. He was responsible for the rebuilding of the Jerusalem walls. He was a leader that had a focus, he guided Isrealites through building the wall day and night and it was completed in no distant time despite the distractions.
