Answer:

An expectant father waits to learn the outcome of his wife’s labor and delivery. In his brief exchanges with another father-to-be the reader is apprised of Mr. Knechtmann’s history. He and his wife are holocaust survivors; their only prior child died in a displaced-person’s camp in Germany--and there is no one to carry on the proud family name if this infant is not healthy. A bored nurse comes to inform Heinz that he has a son and everyone is well.

What could now sustain them but the Spirit of God and His grace? May not and ought not the children of these fathers rightly say

OverLord2011 [107]

The central idea of the passage mentioned is the differences the Pilgrims had with the Church of England. It is how it is mentioned in the passage that their Englishmen forefathers where so religious that they devote their life unto the Lord if anything would have happened to them. The pilgrims in turn told that when the Lord heard them, He just looked over their adversity but did not specifically say if the Lord has ever helped them. It showed that the Pilgrims where furious about the loyalty to the Englishmen forefathers that they in turn do not want to believe what they believed in before. That they can do it without turning themselves to the traditional way of thinking.
