Jesus said" before the rooster crows twice you yourself will disown me three times. Peter denied and said that even if he had to die he would never disown him. Jesus and his disciples went to a place called Gethsemane. He told them to sit here and keep watch while he prayed. Then he returned to his disciples and found them

ointment was not sold for three hundred pence and the proceeds given to the poor. He pointed out that the oil was worth a year’s wages. He did not ask this because he was concerned for the poor. The reason he asked was because he was a thief. He was the disciple that kept the money bag and he would often steal money out of it for his own use. Jesus told Judas to leave Martha alone and then explained that this oil had been kept just for this occasion. Jesus then said something that completely trumped Judas’

riches‚ no powerful connections in society‚ yet he amassed a following like no one before or after him. In Matthew chapter 16 Jesus himself asks the questions which are on his disciples minds‚ “What do men think of me? What do you think of me?” To be a part of the inner circle of Jesus must have been unimaginable. The disciples would have had to realize that history was in the making even if they did not understand at the time exactly what was going on. At this point in Jesus’ Ministry he had already

scripture the servants knew what Jesus had done‚ but the master of the feast was baffled. This also goes in line with the ‘old patch on a new garment” ( (Knight 2010). This gave the disciples belief in Jesus Christ‚ and shows his power as the son of God. As Ray Knight says “The result in this account was that the disciples believed on him and not just on the things he did or said.” This miracle asks us if we would be willing to do Jesus’ commands‚ and do what is given unto us. In this wedding it was

Interestingly‚ the scale of Jesus and his disciples‚ and the other half- the people and the wall of Jerusalem- are different. Jesus on the colt and his disciples are scaled larger than the people hailing his entry.

characters often seem to live in a different world‚ with their frequent killings and the absence of emotion that they display. Then all of a sudden‚ you’ll find yourself identifying with the character‚ and they will seem so classically human. The Gangster‚ as Robert Warshow puts it‚ is a “quintessential ’tragic hero’‚ a character whose very nature and deeds ultimately condemn them to a short and fruitless existence‚ outside of the boundaries of normal society”. The Gangster’s place within cinema is

evokes a sense of nostalgic longing. This feeling of sadness and reflection permeates throughout the piece. While the arrangement is actually quite complex‚ the music appears stripped down to the casual listener; the song is centered around a main lick performed simultaneously on acoustic guitar and sitar‚ which is introduced at the beginning and decidedly does not evolve into anything beyond this. The simplistic structure brings to mind a sensation of loneliness‚ which is heightened by Lennon’s
