style that enhances the sound of the voice. This is important for this specific text from the book of Luke, chapter two, verses eight through fourteen. This narrative illustrates the angel describing the message to the shepherds which is an exciting moment for them to witness. The shepherds were not people that would not normally hear this news which is why it sticks out even more that the angel tell them the message.

The majority of the poem is spent highlighting the irrevocability and completeness of death, that is until lines 165-168: "Weep no more, woeful shepherds, weep no more,/For Lycidas your sorrow is not dead,/Sunk though he be beneath the watery floor,/So sinks the day-star in the ocean…

survey of the same topic, Michael Shepherd approaches to the use of the Minor Prophets in the New Testament very different from previous scholars. Shepherd focuses on the New Testament cites and employs the Book of the Twelve. He argues that while much has been written regarding the larger context of the books, whether or not the New Testament authors presuppose any or great knowledge of the larger context. With a particular focus on the Book of the Twelve, Shepherd intimates that these concerns…

Modern Way, an informative written by Paula Simmons and copyrighted in 1976, was composed with the intention of providing ignorant small-scale shepherds with useful information to improve profitability from a flock of sheep.

However, I found other difference as well. One difference is whom the angel appeared to. In the gospel of Luke, the angel Gabriel visits Mary and the same angel also visits the shepherds. The shepherds were walking when the angel came to them and told them that a savior had been born and to go see him. They did go see him and each brought a different gift; gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Each gift had a special meaning and each gift they…

The Gospel of Luke recounts the angels proclamation: “Now there were shepherds in that region living in the…
