Berlin describes the search for status as “being recognized as belonging to a particular group or class by other persons in my society‚” (9) which will also come with some conditions. Isaiah Berlin too states that our “material life [is what] depends upon interaction with other[s]‚” (9) not our emotional or mental lives. Status deals with the emotional state of a person.

The Life of PI and The Prophet were both books that caught my attention because of two reasons. The first reason was because of the fact that both main characters were somehow traveling while learning what it is they are doing.

Why I choose these two reasons is due to the fact that me personally in the future i would like to travel

The Sign of the Loincloth: Jeremiah (13:1-11) The first eleven verses of chapter thirteen of Jeremiah are a very distinctive portion of an already unique book. Jeremiah ’s vision of the sign of the loincloth is an affluent passage whose depth cannot be fully understood without a proper exegetical exploration. I intend on doing an exegesis on this passage of Jeremiah. The language and symbols used held significance easily understood by the original audience‚ yet are difficult to comprehend by modern

Isaiah 40:12 states‚ “Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand and marked off the heavens with a span‚ enclosed the dust of the earth in a measure‚ and weighed the mountains in scales and the hills in a balance?” This statement reflects a monotheist outlook as YHWH’s powers are deemed incomparable to any other. As he is the creator of all that exists both on earth and in heaven‚ he is the one and only true God. This made it into the final redaction of the Pentateuch as it supports monotheism
