Introduction to The Gospel of John and John 11:34-37 And He said, “Where have you laid him?” They said to Him, “Lord, come and see.” Jesus wept. Then the Jews said, “See how He loved him!” And some of them said, “Could not this Man, who opened the eyes of the blind, also have kept this man from dying?” (John 11:34-37) “Jesus wept”, in itself, is the shortest verse in the entirety of the Bible. It is two words, which in a sense, have never been said prior to this moment. Two words that may…

The townspeople may have feared Hitler, and didn’t want to go to a concentration camp just like the less…

I agree with Wiesenthal’s actions because I have relatable instances from my life that make it understandable. Such as, my parent’s divorce and…

Gilead’s society was founded on the ideas featured in the Bible, and on the idea of Christianity's God being the one true religious being. The name “Gilead” itself is a reference to the Bible, named after a fertile land in Palestine.

Gay and his family were in the minority of refugees who had a successful journey out of Germany and to a safe place, in his case, America. He does not write his book like he is…

After Nazi Germany invaded Lithuanian the situations for the Lithuanian Jews got worse. A panic grew within the Jewish community. Many Jewish men fled right because of the concern about their fate (Tory, Gilbert, Porat, & Michalowicz, 1990, p. 5). The Lithuanian Jews suddenly had no rights and were now considered a lower class. Soon the Jews had vanished from the streets and the city. “They fear that death lies in wait for them around every corner.” (Tory, et al., 1990, p.7). No one could have…
