Ethan A. Proffitt ENG 243 Phil Ferguson 11-17-14 Sonnet 130 William Shakespeare’s 130th sonnet is perhaps the most intriguing and conceptually bizarre. The majority of his sonnets on the subject of women detail how lovely and fair they are‚ or how he is unable to serenade them (often because of a superior man); this particular example is an utter contradiction to his other female-based works. The central idea of the speaker here is to describe the appearance of his love interest to someone else‚

Sonnet 130: Imperfectly Perfect The secular world is increasingly fixated on the concept of beauty and the pursuit of perfection‚ however this preoccupation is not unique to the 20th century. While traditional love poems in the 18th century generally focused on glorifying a woman’s beauty‚ Sonnet 130 written by William Shakespeare goes against the conventional culture of love poems and instead describes the realistic nature of his object of affection. In Sonnet 130‚ the idea of love and is intensely

After reading “Jesus’ Two Natures: God and Man” by Matt Slick‚ I now have a better and more clear understanding of the relationship of Jesus’ human and divine nature.

Jesus was the Word of God‚ and with that said‚ Jesus’s divine nature and ability did not alter when He became flesh. When Jesus became flesh and gained his
