God said to King Hezekiah, “I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears.” (II Kings 20:5) On an occasion of great agony, David prayed to God, “put my tears into your bottle” (Psalms 56:8), suggesting that tears are sufficiently precious to be saved. Tears in the Bible may be identified by these categories: (A) Tears of grief. (B) Tears of joy. (C) Tears of Appreciation, (D) Tears of futility and (E) Tears of parting.

    I interviewed my mom, Catherine Farrar, for the religion interview assignment. My mom was raised Catholic, but stopped attending church in college and never looked back. She is a feminist, and the Catholic Church is simply not conducive to feminist beliefs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton’s piece, “The Introduction to The Women’s Bible” seemed to mirror my mom’s stance on the issue; the Bible was written by men, for men, with the goal of achieving power over others. Clearly, the Bible does not favor women, and this is true for many religious texts.

  • Frequency In King James Bible Essay

    1178 Words  | 5 Pages

    3.2 Frequency in the King James Bible In the King James Bible 23,439 cases have been found in which a variant of the second person pronoun is used regardless of plural or singular forms. The number of y-forms in the King James Bible is 8384, which only represent 35.77% of the total number of second person pronominal forms. Whereas the t-forms, on the other hand, constitutes 64.23%, with 15055 cases (Table 1). The predominant use of the t-forms as second person pronouns in the original text of the King James Bible could be seen as problematic, when taking into consideration, that in more modern translations like the New King James Version of the Bible all of those semantic distinctions are lost due to the demise of the t-forms altogether.
