    Jesus calls upon Matthew to have dinner with him and they dine together with his disciples and other sinners. When the Pharisees see this they question the disciples because it is known if one dines with a sinner, they also become impure. I found this quite interesting because I always thought religion was centered on love, however, the Pharisees seemed to have a lot of hatred against others. When Jesus heard them he stated that he was there to help those who were sick become well. From this story, Matthew’s audience learns that everyone is worth…

    Throughout Matt’s journey, people constantly wanted him dead. The purpose for which Matt was created was to supply El Patron with his heart when El Patron grew close to dying. “In the end the only thing that mattered was how strong his heart was.” (Farmer 216) Matt didn’t want to die so he escaped from this sentence with the help of his friends. In The Screwtape Letters, no one wanted or could afford for the patient to die. While the war was happening, bombs were being dropped over where the patient was living. Screwtape was advising Wormwood. “Whatever you do, keep your patient as safe as you possibly can.” (Lewis 157) Even though no one wanted the patient to die he did, and Matt didn’t die against everyone’s…

    Luke’s theme is about new conversion and the rapid spread of Christianity, however, with the addition of the story of Mary and Martha it becomes confusing as to how this story fits in with the overall theme of the Gospel of Luke. However, Luke continues his theme with this story because he wants everyone to know the truth about Jesus. Jesus wanted Martha to stop doing the busywork and focus on the truth of Him and who He is. Before this passage, we have the story about the Good Samaritan who was there to help even when it was frowned upon socially. After this passage, we have where Jesus teaches about prayer. The passage about Mary and Martha go with the Good Samaritan story because Martha was doing what was expected by her culture and society, while Mary was going beyond it and sitting at the feet of Jesus.…
