    included. Unfortunately the history provided by these gospels could have been adapted to fit certain purposes within the faith.

Furthermore, the book of John doesn’t include key events such as the exorcism Jesus performs or the presence of lepers. While, Matthew 4:1-11 and Luke 4:1-13 share specific details such as the temptations faced…

In his poem “I hear America singing”, Walt Whitman writes about all the sounds he hears of different blue collar jobs being accomplished. Whether it be a carpenter measuring planks or a wife doing chores at home (Whitman), everyone was putting in work and contributing to the society.
