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.

Jesus and the Law: An Ancient Text in a Postmodern Context In looking at Jesus and the law we must acknowledge that Jesus is the fulfillment of the old covenant. Every theme in the Old Testament points forward towards Jesus. The law is the character of God written in a language which human beings can understand.
