Nanautzin In The Fifth World

Improved Essays
In the creation of the fifth world, I found it interesting how Nanautzin, the once unassuming devoted himself to his duty. He did not choose to do sacrifice himself for the creation of the new son (he was voluntold really), yet he devoted himself to the cause fully, giving the best he could and willingly stepping into the fire without fear. Truly, it is amazing to see such devotion to duty; it is no wonder he is renowned. However, I do feel a bit bad for the wealthy god receiving no credit for his contribution. The wealthy god was originally in it for just the glory; the thought of praise overshadowed consideration of the requirements of such a task. It is such a human mistake; I have seen my friends take on many honors classes in order

    Despite the cultural and societal differences between the Bible and The Epic of Gilgamesh, they both share a similar scene centralizing around the destruction of the world due to the will of the gods. Similarly, they desired to eradicate human kind through a flood for the sake of cleansing and purifying the world of what they deemed to be unworthy. Through the flood stories, the complex relationship between the gods and human kind can be seen as well as the circumstances surrounding the unfortunate incidents. Even though, there are countless similarities between the two stories in a broad perspective, there have a lot of moral and social differences which strongly distinguish them from each other.

    This concept is seen in today’s society, with many wealthy individuals donating some of their fortune and time into charities they start, such as the wife of Steve Jobs, Laurene Powell. Ms. Powell is a humanitarian, and even “started an after school program called College Track to help low-income students attend college” (Blumenthal 233).

    Scholars have widely agreed that the Gospel of Luke has a special focus on the concern for the poor. This concern for the poor and marginalized first becomes obvious in the account of Jesus’ birth. In the Gospel of Matthew (2:1-12), it is the Magi, wealthy men from a distant country that come to worship Jesus, while Luke tells readers about shepherds- lowly men working in the fields coming to see the baby Jesus. Also, Luke has women, Elizabeth and Mary who as the focal point of the infancy narrative, while Matthew uses two men, Joseph and Herod the Great. The Gospel shows God being immensely concerned for those who were considered poor, and as a result was marginalized.…
