Biblical References in "Song of Solomon" Under the recorded names were other names‚ just as Macon Dead‚’ recorded for all time in some dusty file‚ hid from view the real names of people‚ places‚ and things.

Jesus. His life was completely lived to serve the course of the Father through reaching out to the disciples. He trained and gave them confidence to move into leadership and do even greater tasks (John 14:12-14). This chapter takes a look at a few Biblical models in the enterprise of servant leadership considering the principles they used. The Old Testament identifies two main servants of the Lord: Israel and the promised Messiah (Isaiah 49; 50; 52:13f; 53). God showed that to be named a servant

On the surface‚ King Lear is a pagan play‚ as it is set in pre-Christian England. But it has‚ for all that‚ no shortage of appeals to deity and interesting speculation. This is‚ after all‚ a play set on the brink of eternity and it must make us wonder on the universe in relationship to the characters and ourselves. However‚ I believe that‚ although set in pre-Christian times‚ Shakespeare’s King Lear provided myriad allusions to Christian themes‚ parables‚ and characters such as the enduring of suffering
