In the textbook: “The Art Of Being Human” Chapter 3 is about the role of myth in the humanities. Before art was made there was something called mythology. In every religion, there is a hero and that hero was prophesied to save the world or save the people that believed in that religion or “followed the rules” by granting them eternal life or afterlife in a promised land. The humanities could be found in mythology. This essay will talk about how mythology, in the role of humanities, should be considered

Director Matthew Vaughn has a very accomplished track record; Kick-Ass is a breath of fresh air amid the abundance of Marvel superhero flicks, X-Men: First Class is a hugely entertaining romp that serves as the franchise’s finest, and Stardust, despite being rarely mentioned, is a competent and non-formulaic addition to the fantasy genre. You can imagine my disappointment, then, at Kingsman: The Secret Service, a spy caper devoid of any heart or wit that we have come to expect of the director. The

gospel of Matthew, its connection with the Old Testament and the New Testament setting of the Sermon on the Mount. 1.1 SERMON ON THE MOUNT IN THE GOSPEL OF MATTHEW The Sermon on the Mount is recorded in the fifth, the sixth, and the seventh chapters of the Gospel According to St. Matthew. 1.1.1 MATTHEW THE EVANGELIST Tradition attributes the authorship of the first Gospel to the Apostle Matthew who sat under the tax booth and followed Jesus (9:9f; 10:3).

In Matthew 5-7 Jesus speaks about many points that relate with Romans 12. Both sections provide information that you could only assume to be very important since it is displayed multiple times in God's book. One of the points made in the book of Matthew is about salt and light. While Jesus was talking to the crowds, he exclaims, “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled

The genealogy of Jesus in Matthew and Luke are very different which can be confusing to many people because at first glance, it does not look like any of the names are the same. When I look at the names, I cannot find any of them that are alike because they are not in the same order and they do not end on the same person. In Matthew, he lists names of women while Luke does not list a single women’s name. There are, however, several different reasons from people like scholars on why this could be

What does it take for one to go over the edge? “The Gospel According to Mark” is a short story written by Latin American author Jorge Luis Borges, first published in 1970. Borges short story, as suggested by the title, is focuses on ideas of the religion of Christianity, and it also critiques on humans and their overall nature. The plot of the “The Gospel…” can only be brought to its full potential due to the carefully written setting that allows for every other aspect to stand out. The plot of

Directed by Denys Arcade, Jesus of Montreal tells the story of a group of actors, in Montreal Canada, that come together to recreate and present the Passion play. Daniel Coulombe, a 30-year-old, plays the lead role of Jesus as well as the director of the play. Daniel already appears the part; his lengthy brown hair and wide brown eyes create what appears to be a traditional Jesus (Tatum, 177). But Jesus of Montreal is far from traditional, and in fact attempts to shake up the overdone religious expectations

different events of Jesus’ life. Matthew portrays Jesus as the son of David and is mostly speaking to the Jews. Mark shows Jesus as the son of Man and starts with the beginning of His ministry. Luke tells about Jesus’ life from birth all the way to His death and ascension. Finally, John writes as an eyewitness of Jesus’ life and shows Him as the Son of God. Without having the four Gospels, we wouldn’t have a true picture of Jesus’ life. The Gospel of Matthew starts from the beginning of Jesus’s
