not have spent time on details that do not add to the meaning of the overall telling of the story. The three hunting scenes in Sir Gawain and the Green Knight‚ and in parallel‚ the three temptations‚ monopolize a considerable portion of the story. In a comparison of the three hunts and their corresponding temptations‚ we will see how the poet parallels these circumstances to emphasize the meaning of its symbolism.

The Jesus I never knew is an interesting book. There are many insights about Jesus throughout chapter 1.

In Judaism in particularly in that time period it was wrong for a person deemed “unclean” which implies diseased or not of a Jewish background to make contact with a chosen one (Jew). Gentiles in this time were seen as unclean therefore one of Jesus’; messages towards outcasts the “Good Samaritan”
