often quoted in the King James Version: Soul Health The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness…

poetry falsely glorifies a women’s physical and spiritual beauty, showing their great appreciation of spending one’s life with women, but not in a realistic manner. In the poem, “The Passionate Shepherd to His Love” by Christopher Marlowe, the shepherd’ love is falsely eulogized by the shepherd. The shepherd begs his love to come live with him.

Esau was a hunter and Jacob was a cultivator, a grower, a shepherd. Esau was a one day man while Jacob savoured the best out of what today holds and prepares to confront the future with hope. As a farmer who clears the bush, tills the ground, plants the seed on the prepared soil, weeds the grounds and painstakingly watches and waits until his labour is due for harvesting before setting forth the sickle to gather into his barns so was Jacob who could conceive and walk through his goals…

Will love outlive the flowers that fade as the spring becomes winter? While the Shepherd believed that the material items would outlive time, the reality given by the Nymph is that time passes and these gifts will not sway the love that was never there.

for Himself. By using the Old Testament name of God, “I AM,” Jesus is speaking in a style that presents Himself as deity.
