Through the relationships he forms with his disciples‚ the crowds‚ and

The Function of the Journey in Matthew Arnold’s Poetry We can see that much of Matthew Arnold’s poetry contains the imagery of a journey. Stefan Collini suggests that this is a three-stage journey “represented by a river‚ which rises in a cool‚ dark glade‚ flows out on to the fierce‚ hot plain‚ and then finds its way to the wide calm sea” (54).

The Bible‚ however‚ has a clear beginning that establishes many key points. The treatment of women is different‚ and both books instruct their followers to “evangelize” differently. The Qur’an contains subjects and stories that are in the Bible‚ but they are twisted and changed. The Qur’an also has entirely different events that take place after the time the Bible was finished
