Rembrandt’s God takes the form of writing‚ and light to communicate with the humans in his works. In his form of light in Dane‚ he is sensual and inhabits the entire painting.

Babette’s Feast While watching Babette’s Feast‚ the notion of sacrifice and selflessness really resonated with me.

I believe that Mark includes so much detail in this passage for a couple different reasons. The first reason is to establish Jesus’ authority as God to be all knowing. The second reason is that by putting in some details about the Feast of Unleavened‚ this allows people today to understand the realities of the festival and what it entails for those who participate in it. 2. ›› According to Exodus 14:12-25‚ for the Passover‚ each Israelite family had to take a lamb on the tenth day of the month
