The articles that I read for this assignment were “Bullies and Victims: Revenge Revisited”, “The Partner as Enemy”, and “Competition: Who’s the Greatest?”. Each one of these articles is an in-depth analysis on the human psyche, and each one gives the reader a chance to grapple with some of the bigger questions in life. These articles all talk about subject matter that should be relevant to the reader at one time or another in their life. As I read the articles more closely, a central theme began to emerge. That, through a fixed mindset, one is unable to make the changes necessary to better one’s self.

Jeremiah received information that false prophets in Babylon were telling the exiles they would return home soon. Therefore, the exiles made little or no effort, to adjust to their new surroundings. When King Zedekiah sent an official delegation to Babylon, Jeremiah used the occasion to secretly send a letter, carried by Elasah and Gemariah, two of Jeremiah’s few supporters, to “the rest of the elders of the exile, the priests, the prophets and all the people” (29: 1-3). Disturbed by their unrealistic attitude, Jeremiah exhorted them to settle down, build homes, and plant gardens; for he knew they would be in Babylon many years (25:11).5
