Matthew Arnold critical commentary West London raises multiple literary observations. These include the type of language used‚ the structure of the poem and the use of poetic techniques‚ such as imagery. The first striking feature is the rhyming structure that follows the criteria of an Italian sonnet‚ with a slight variant in the last tercet. This can be seen as Arnold attempting to tweak the model to emphasise the final three lines. This ending can be interpreted as the heightened and emotionally

Session 1 Reading Response Issue: “Canon” This week I read all six chapters that were assigned in our text‚ the lecture notes‚ as well as Matthew and Mark.

Exogetical Essay on Matthew 11:25-30 This passage opens up with the phrase‚ "I praise you‚ Father‚ Lord of heaven and earth‚ because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned‚ and revealed them to little children. This speaks of two kinds of people in his prayer: the "wise" - arrogant in their own knowledge - and the "little children" - humbly open to receive the truth of God’s Word.
