2. Foreshadowing in Toni Morrison s Beloved
Foreshadowing in Beloved
In the novel Beloved, Toni Morrison addresses many broad themes and issues that are continually
reoccurring throughout the book. Morrison uses each one of the characters to aid in the development
of her novel. Sethe, Denver, and Beloved, all main characters in this book, represent many of the large
issues. One of the major themes in the novel is portrayed with the falling of Beloved, Sethe, and
Denver in the ice skating scene. In the second section of Beloved, Morrison uses the dramatic ice
skating scene to foreshadow the deterioration of the relationships with in the family that occurs with
the loss of Sethe s job.

Not long after the ice skating scene we see how Sethe begins to fall. Sethe s first major stumble deals
with the loss of her job. For many years Sethe was an extremely hard worker at a restaurant in town
and never missed a day of work in her life. However, after Beloved started becoming more dependent
upon Sethe, demanding more and more from her mother, Sethe found it nearly impossible to maintain
a job. Sethe played games all day long with Beloved and she took to going to work later and later each
day until the predictable happened: Sawyer, her boss, told her not to come back (240). With the
termination from Sethe s job resulted in a feeling of apathy. Sethe wished to put all of her time and
energy into Beloved s happiness because of the terrible guilt she had inside. Sethe felt extremely
ashamed for killing her daughter. Therefore, Sethe would do anything for Beloved. Anything Beloved
was craving, Sethe made sure her daughter received. Beloved took advantage of her mother s behavior
and drained her of everything. Hours

3. Marketing Museum
Earned Revenue *Earned revenue* is *revenue* created by the business operations of the facility.
Sources that contribute to museums earned revenue include admissions, gift shops, food and beverage
sales, memberships, facility rentals, and fees for research services. Essentially, any product or service
that is offered by the museum and generates income is considered earned income. *Unearned
revenue* is money that is not generated by the business operations of the facility, but is provided by
others. The main sources of unearned revenue are fundraising and grants. Fundraising to increase
unearned revenue includes both internal and external activities. Internal activities include such actions
as special events, garage sales, and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Caution is advised, as running a restaurant is a difficult task, and providing this service through a
concessionaire may be advisable. Another option is to use vending machines for snack foods and
drinks. Providing research services for a fee can provide additional revenue. If a museum has a
product or collection that the public may have interest in learning more about, there may be an
opportunity to charge a fee to conduct the research. Charging a fee for facility rentals is another
program option. Offering to host meetings, banquets, or parties for a fee may be logical if the facilities
are adequate. Size and time commitments would have to be analyzed against expenses. Instituting
after school daycare programs may be an option to attract more visitors. Having an efficiently run
after school program that is unique and appealing to children can bolster earned revenues. With
childcare hard to find for many parents, this option may be appealing. The Exploration Place in Prince
George offers numerous child programs including after school daycare. Not only can these programs
bolster revenues, but they can create goodwill and exposure in the community as well. Offer unique
activities that are associated with your museum s experience. In many cases, museums offer only
static collections and exhibits. If there is an activity that your museum could offer that ties in with the
theme, more visitors may be attracted. For instance, if your

4. The Power Of The Challenger Disaster Speech
The office of President of the United States has become one of the most powerful and influential
positions in the world. A president has the power to set a legislative agenda, to veto a law, and to make
crucial foreign policy decisions. While all these capabilities are important, the most significant power
of the presidency resides in his or her ability to respond to a national tragedy. Specifically, the
president must provide comfort to a demoralized nation, commemorate the fallen Americans, and
inspire hope. No president fulfilled these tasks better than President Ronald Reagan during his Space
Shuttle Challenger Disaster Address to the nation. President Reagan comforted the nation,
memorialized the seven casualties, and culminated hope for the future of space exploration all in a
four and a half minute national address. President Reagan s address not only demonstrated the most
important task of the President of the United States, but it also became a template from which future
tragedy addresses would be given. President Reagan accomplished the first component of this vital
role by successfully consoling the nation for, in what he calls, a national loss. The President stated,
Today is a day for mourning and remembering. Nancy and I are pained to the core by the tragedy of
the shuttle Challenger. We know we share this pain with all the people of our country. This is truly a
national loss (Reagan). Reagan was able to paint himself as one of the many

Background
* The case looks at differences in cultural values and beliefs of Polish and U.S managers employed in
a joint venture in Poland. * Joint venture with a Polish partner and a wholly owned subsidiary of a U.S
multinational corporation located in Poland. * Small joint venture, non bureaucratic organization with
140 employees. * Family type of relationship existed among the managers. * Both local Polish
managers and U.S expatriates reported a friendly work climate.

Traditional expectations hold that, when one is young, it is impossible to be knowledgeable and have
the necessary experience and competence to manage successfully.
* The Salary System * Polish managers expressed difficulty in adjusting to the confidentiality of the
new salary system. The Polish and U.S managers differed in the beliefs regarding what information
was personal and what information should be public. Polish managers wanted to know as much about
each other s salaries as possible. They had no problems asking another employee about exactly how
much they were paid. To the Polish managers, this served as a means of establishing their relative
status. * For the expatriate U.S Americans, however, it was not part of the company culture to reveal
explicit salary information. Salary information was considered personal and confidential. Most felt
that revealing salary information disrupted the family climate of the organization. Instead, the
Americans expressed faith in the system of assessment and reward allocation.
* Team Goals * Working not only for your own interests but also for the success of the team or the
whole company was a challenge for many Polish managers. This was especially true for those who
had their initial managerial experiences in a state controlled economy.

6. Jaws Novel And Film Analysis
The lure of the sandy beaches appeals to people worldwide. Television shows, movies and the draw of
the beach lifestyle have a universal attraction that one can t help but want to visit. The sun, surf,
barbeques, nothing could ruin a day like that; nothing but a fin in the water. Most beach goers have not
experienced seeing a shark fin in the water, let alone a shark attack. Sharks may be in the close
proximity where humans are but they don t actively go hunting for humans. Media has fed into mass
hysteria and fear of sharks, leading to the mass killing and endangering of a vital creature to the
marine ecosystem. The original Jaws novel and film from the 1970s was very popular due to the way

them being connected to the spine. Thinking this would help stop shark finning, it did not however. It
only leads to gruesome deaths with fins still being brought in barely connect to the spine. According to

7. The Collapse Of The Housing Crisis
Economists cite a plethora of reasons on why the Global Financial Crisis started. However, most
economists can agree that the bursting of the U.S housing bubble, irresponsibility practiced by
regulators and financiers, greed of banks, lack of leadership from central banks, complex chains of
debt, and the credit crunch led to what is referred to as the largest crisis since the Great Depression.
The collapse of the housing bubble, which peaked in 2004, in the United States is usually cited as the
initial trigger of the crisis. The beginning of the bubble was due to the readily available credit in the
U.S. that was fueled by a large influx of foreign funds following the Russian debt crisis and Asian
financial crisis. This led to a boom in ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Slumps in value made it difficult for banks to sell assets at almost any price or use them as collateral
for short term funding. Real estate prices also plummeted, and interest rates rose sharply from 1% to
5.35%. The devaluation of homes caused them to be worth less than their mortgage loan, giving
consumers an incentive to foreclose on their mortgages. In addition, homeowners that were barely
able to afford mortgage payments while interest rates were low were suddenly slapped in the face with
the hike in interest rates, which also caused them to default on their mortgages. This phenomenon,
dubbed the foreclosure epidemic , drained wealth from other consumers and weakened the financial
strength of banks. Banks and investors that had borrowed and invested heavily in subprime mortgage
backed securities also incurred significant amounts of debt or losses with the burst of the housing
bubble, adding to the severity with which the collapse of this credit driven bubble affected the world
economy. With the collapse the housing bubble and the value of asset prices, banks began to doubt the
viability of their counterparties. Without trust, which is the ultimate glue of all financial systems,
banks stopped lending, which is the exact opposite of what banks are supposed to do. For example, the

In the prior session, the client detailed his family relationships, legal issues, and discussed how his
father played a role in his life. The activity was selected as a way to get the client to think about
someone important in his life and then later process the information. The client was to listen to my
prompt and imagine opening an envelope with a letter inside. He would open the envelope, read the
letter and visualize the letter for a few moments. After reading the letter he was instructed to explain
who the letter was from and what the letter said. I originally planned this activity thinking that the
client would visualize his father writing him a letter but, I was mistaken. When I processed the
activity, the client discussed how his mother wrote the letter and told him to behave and stay out of
trouble. His mother has been a guiding force for the client throughout his life and the client felt guilty
that she was suffering with cancer while he was locked up for many years. The client, to this day,
cannot visit her until his charges are settled or dropped. Utilizing this activity was a quick and easy
way to assess where the client s thought process was during our session. I was able to gather more
data about his family life and later connect it to his PTSD diagnosis. I consider this activity a success
because I was able to obtain more and better data about the client s life and his current thoughts and
emotions regarding his

9. Stagecoach Movie Film Analysis
The western movie I pick is John Ford s movie Stagecoach (1939). The movie is about a group of
people traveling together by stagecoach from the town Tonto to Lordsburg. The people traveling
together are a diverse group of people. All of them have the specific motivation for going, but they all
share the same goal reaching to Lordsburg. The characters are Dallas who s a prostitute, Mrs. Lucy
Mallory who is the wife of the Army Cavalry officer, Ellsworth Henry Gatewood who is a banker,
Hatfield who is a gambler, Samuel Peacock who is whiskey salesman, Doc Josiah Boone who is a
alcoholic doctor, Buck Rickabaugh who is a stage driver, Marshal Curley Wilcox who is a marshal
riding shotgun, and Ringo Kid who is an escaped outlaw.

The cinematography is by Bert Glennon. The expectations for this film is that it has to be western
because it s the genre. The movie needs to have action and movement. And have a heroic character.
The expectations are high since a lot of people watch Western genre. I don t see any manipulation of
space and time.
The story formula for Stagecoach structures around characters in the Tonto and introducing the
characters, traveling to Lordsburg, stopping at Dry Fork way station for food and unforgettable dinner
table scene, traveling towards Apache Wells in the snow, Mrs. Mallory s baby born in Apache Wells,
finally getting to Lordsburg but got attacked by the Indians, and ended with Ringo Kid in a shooting
conflict. Stagecoach did a great job in the characters types. There are the protagonists, prostitute,
gambler, schoolmarm. These are the specific character types in Western movies. The setting of the
movie is on point. It s in the American West and takes place in the 1880s. The location of Monument
Valley is a favorite location for John Ford. The presentation of Stagecoach has many great exterior
shots that collocate the characters with the environment they occupy. The stars in Stagecoach does fit
in a Western movie. Like John Wayne, he stars in many Western movies. What makes Stagecoach a
western is the traditional western theme. Like the fight between whites and Native Americans. There
is a good use of the American West s open plains and mountains.

Especially in age and through pregnancy. A woman over 50 would need less iron due to not having a

11. Collecting Crime Data Analysis
Collecting crime data is very important to the criminal justice system. It helps in various ways from
showing increases of certain crimes in different regions to how often different crimes are committed.
There are three major crime data sources in the united states, official statistics, victimization survey
data, and self reported data.
Starting with official statistics, the main source is the UCR which stands for uniform crime reports.
The UCR Program collects statistics on violent crime (murder and nonnegligent manslaughter,
forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault) and property crime (burglary, larceny theft, and motor
vehicle theft). All the data collected is compiled by the FBI. The FBI gets all of the data from police
and sheriff departments. Only a majority of departments participate because participation is voluntary
which leaves the data as a whole to some extent inaccurate. The UCR will report not only the number
of crimes reported but can also portray the rate of occurrence. How the occurrence is presented is
through the crime rate. The crime rate is The actual number of reported crimes standardized by some
unit of the population. (Gibson 2016) The data collected from the law enforcement departments for the
UCR is separated into part 1 and part 2 offenses. Part 1 is for the more serious crimes such as murder

process it takes to collect all the information required by the NIBRS. One benefit is that there is no

13. Beyond Petroleum ( Bp )
Beyond Petroleum (BP) formerly British Petroleum is a company that claims to be devoted to finding
new energy sources with little impact on the environment. Ferrell, Fraderich, and Ferrell, explain in
their Business Ethics textbook in 2012 that after several environmental tragedies in the mid to late
2000 s, the company had to reassess their ethical standards and make changes to repair their image
and regain the confidence of their stakeholders. During this time, they began investing in wind, solar,
biofuels, and many other new types of energy sources. They also created programs to educate citizens
and stakeholders about environmental awareness. Most importantly, though, they also tasked their
ethics and compliance team with creating a code of conduct policy and communicate it out to every
employee (p.343 345). Considering that BP is a worldwide company, with employees of diverse
languages and cultures, this was a very difficult task to complete. Not only would it be a challenge to
communicate the new code of conduct out to each employee, but it was even more difficult for the
company to enforce it. Because of the lack of understanding on how to deal with ethical dilemmas,
managers and employees within the company did not complete proper risk assessment, leading to the
worst oil spill in U.S. History. This would come to be known as the Deepwater Horizon spill. BP

The History of Special Education in the Twentith Century
During the twentieth century, drastic changes were made to vastly improve the special education
system to ensure that all students, regardless of their ability, were given equal rights according to the
Constitution of the United States. During early colonial America, schooling was not mandatory and it
was primarily given to the wealthy Anglo Saxon children (Carlson, p230). Children were mainly
taught in the home or in a single room schoolhouse. Therefore, children of limited mental capability
were not likely to be schooled. Also, in a non graded schoolhouse, children of differing abilities did
not pose problems. With the beginning of mandatory education in 1852 ... Show more content on

In these special classrooms, a specially trained teacher would provide the instruction. As ideal as this
might sound, it is hardly what did occur. The optimism of the educators to successfully teach the
disabled students faded during the 1930 s and the 1940 s. Special education classes were held under
horrible conditions. The rooms were insufficient, with limited resources, the teachers were poorly
trained and the curriculum was inadequate. Schools also often classified students as having disabilities
when they did not. Additionally, students were often labeled with one type disability when they had
another. This practice (misclassification) (Turnbull et al p16) was a common discrimination in
American schools. One might wonder why the conditions were so deplorable. Why were the teachers
so terribly unqualified? It appears that the common perception of the disabled students was like that of
Quasimodo, in Victor Hugo s The Hunchback of Notre Dame. They were misunderstood, and
considered to be monstrous something to be hidden away, shunned and rejected by normal people. The
public s attitude with disabled children was one of fear, as if the disability was somehow contagious.
They were looked upon as crazy people. This general outlook set the standard for educating students
with special needs. They were classified as inferior, so why should the school system bother to work

15. The Deepwater Horizon Disaster Analysis
The Deepwater horizon disaster portrays the weaknesses in the current drilling technology,

unpreparedness, in the drilling companies. In this section, the report proposes various steps, which
shall not only prepare the team, but also offer a guideline towards the response, in the case a similar
disaster in the future. The proposed solutions include high tech exploration, categorization of the
disasters and the restructuring of management hierarchy in the companies.
1. Conduct high tech hazard exploration
The oil and gas industry should embark on an important next generation series of high tech hazard
exploration systems. It should be done in the deep and ultra deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico. The
researchers and engineers at onboard relied on the information collected from small scale operations,
which were mainly conducted in the shallow waters. As a result, they had little information, and they
underestimated the magnitude of the disaster. This step is essential because it would have saved the
Deepwater horizon. The assessment should not only be done by BP, but also be a regulation to all
drilling companies, in order to prevent similar disasters in the future.

Usually, the slaves in the lowest rung of this social ladder were the ones who rebelled and often
domestic slaves were the ones who betrayed them by reporting the plots to their master.
(www.guyana.org). As a result of the enslaved Africans in the Caribbean, wherever there was slavery,
there was resistance . (V. shepherd).
Until recently the role of the African people who resisted enslavement and fought to end slavery in
various ways during the Transatlantic Slave Trade had been ignored. It is important to remember that
resistance to slavery had a long history. It began in Africa itself when the Africans fought against
enslavement and continued on board the ships, during the middle passage and also on the plantations.
(N.p, 2009) There were different forms of resistances used by the enslaved Africans in the Caribbean
cam be broken down into two main categories; violent and non violent resistances or more formerly
active and passive resistance. There was also marronage which can fall into the category of non

21. Is Animal Testing Necessary
Imagine sacrificing your own pet so it could be used for space exploration. In the Space Race, the
USA and the Russians would send animals to space to make sure it was safe enough for humans. The
animals were used to help improve technology and to help get the first man on the moon. Without
testing animals, we wouldn t have been able to know the effects it has on the human body or if
humans would be able to survive in space.
To begin with, animal testing was necessary because it was too risky to send a human to space.

22. Descriptive Essay About A Beautiful City
Imagine yourself coming to a city you have never been to for a vacation. You have just gotten a leave
from your job and you are expecting a relaxing vacation without any hassles. After a long flight, you
reach your final destination, Pearadex, California. You walk out of the airport into a huge, beautiful
city full of gigantic skyscrapers that is the home of the city s tech industry. As you walk into the
downtown area, you see a beautiful fountain with water gushing out in all directions making its way
through the city using a median of streams which resemble a microchip when looked from above.
Little kids are playing in the stream splashing around while the senior citizens sit on pear shaped
benches watching the young children with glee. Hover cars make their way as they gently glide on top
of the river and the streets lining them and guide their passengers home with the low sound of hover
cars powered by compressed gases. Paddle boats and tour gondolas glide across the water gently as
their occupants heartily talk and laugh. Suddenly a bell rings out of nowhere and you are alarmed as
you do not know what is going on. You breathe a sigh of relief as you see kids of all ages flock out of
school in the thousands and hear their screams of joy as you walk past. They all dash to Crystal Lake
to escape the heat. The clear water with a hint of blue is full of ripples going off in all directions from
the boats and canoes. The familiar smell of freshly cut grass from the field in Birchland Park enters
your nose. You are home! You finally attain your peace and quietness. The neighborhood is very quiet
allowing you to take a peaceful nap and dream about the wonderful sights you will see and the things
you will do in this wonderful city tomorrow. Pearadex city has surpassed all levels expected from the
public and is the future generation of cities. It is located in Northern California, United States of
America, and has had quite a big history considering that it was founded on June 19, 1984. Even

23. Short Summary Of The Battle Of War
Hood started out by having Brown and Cleburne to attack Wagner s line of 3000 men. Wagner s men
were guarded by fieldworks put up before the Confederates had arrived, but since they were made in
haste, they quickly collapsed. Wagner s line let out a single volley of rifle fire before turning around
and retreating to the main line. The Confederates were on the heels of the fleeing Federals, so the
defending Federals couldn t fire in fear of hitting their own. This inability to shoot caused a weak spot
in the center of the Union line, so Brown, Cleburne, and French focused their troops on that spot.
Within minutes, the Confederates had breached the line forty yards in, and Union soldiers quickly
started retreating. It was looking to be a ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Some of Loring s units tried retreating, but Loring rallied them to continue. They made no further
progress forward though. They made six distinct attacks against Reilly s line, but all failed with heavy
losses. Quarles was able to break through the line somehow; his unit was immediately pinned down by
artillery fire. Bate s units was sent to the Union right, and when he was ordered to attack it was nearly
dark. Bate pushed right and swept past Union sharpshooters. Bate had expected that his left flank
would be protected by Chalmers cavalry, but because of an orchard, Chalmers was split from the main
unit and was not there. In an effort to protect this flank, Bate sent a Florida unit to the left. Since Bate
had to send that brigade to protect the flank, he was stretched too thin which kept him from advancing
forward, leading to his retreat. The other Confederate cavalry units besides Chalmers and his men
were on the other side of the river trying to hit the Federals on their left side, led by Forrest. Wilson
heard about Forrest s crossing at the Harpeth and gathered his cavalry to oppose them. When Forrest s
and Wilson s forces drew near to each other, Wilson sent Croxton s units to hit Forrest s flank and sent
Hatch to strike the front of Forrest.

The objective of this report is to present and discuss the management of field construction projects.
These projects involve a great deal of time and expense, so close control and management is
paramount if they are to be completed within the established time and cost limitations. The term
construction management is applied to the provision of professional management services to the
owner of a construction project with the objective of achieving high quality with low costs. A
specialist project manager organises, schedules, and controls the field work and is responsible for
getting the project completed within the time and cost limitations. He acts as the focal point for all
facets of the project and brings together the efforts of all ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Project managers are likely to have differing objectives throughout the project but one underlying
objective throughout it is to bring the project in the specific budget that has been set by the client and
this is one of the main objectives that a project manager is judged on, and therefore being able to keep
a tight financial reign on every project is essential. During the design phase of the construction
project, the project costs are continuously approximated and reviewed following each design change
to ensure that they will not exceed the owner s budget. A new project cannot be intelligently priced
until some major management determinations have been made concerning the conduct of the work.
Project cost estimating is typically executed by the quantity surveyor, but with projects such as the
service Kelmat Services provide, where they provide specialist project managers for unique
constructions such as St Germans Flood Alleviation Pump Station (Atkins), the project manager was
employed to oversee the construction, but to assist the quantity surveyor in project cost estimating.
Cost planning for a project obviously requires an extensive knowledge of the construction in hand,
and this is where not having a member of the design team as a project manager becomes a
disadvantage, because a member of the design team would be able to make swift, concise decisions
whilst a specialist project manager would be

25. Evaluation Of A Exercise Based Interventions
Inter individual variability in the direction and magnitude of weight change in response to supervised
exercise based interventions has been well documented (Table 1). Even in the highly controlled
environment of an isolated experimental station over an 84 day period exercise induced weight loss
ranged between 3 and 12 kg [48]. More recent studies showed that certain participants even gain
weight in response to supervised exercise interventions [42,49]. Accordingly, changes in fat mass and
fat free mass have been shown to vary considerably [36,42]. King et al. showed a roughly 50:50 split
between so called responders (i.e. participants who achieve expected weight loss) and non responders
(i.e. participants who experience a small amount of weight loss or weight gain) [36]. Other studies
indicate that a majority of participants displays some form of compensatory adaptation with a ratio of
responders to non responders of 1:2 [46,49]. Even though there is, most likely, considerable inter
individual variability in metabolic adaptations in response to exercise [42,48], success in weight loss
interventions has been largely attributed to behavioral compensation such as a decline in non exercise
PA and/or an increase in energy intake [22,36,46]; in addition to an obvious association with
adherence to the exercise protocol. In fact, it has been argued that the individual variability in weight
loss can be entirely attributed to the variability in non exercise PA [46,50].

Conversion from surface volumes to reservoir pore volumes is performed using the following
relationships:
N_pd=(N_p B_o)/(NB_oi )(1 S_wc)
W_id=W_i/(NB_oi )(1 S_wc)
Since 1PV=(NB_oi)/(1 S_wc )
Finally, the dependence of fractional flow at the producing end of the system on fractional flow at
reservoir conditions is expressed using the classical Buckley Leverett fraction flow function:
f_we=1/(1+B_o/B_w (1/f_ws 1))
It must be noted that in most water drive reservoirs before the water breakthrough, there is an initial
period of depletion. The fractional flow calculations, only take into account the oil recovered by water
injection. Therefore calculations can be performed only after the water breaks through in the
producing wells.
Prediction of final oil recovery
If injection rates during the latter part of the flood are relatively stable, then 1/Wid function can be
approximated by a straight line, which can be fitted by equation of the form:
(δf_we)/(δS_we )=aS_we+b
Where a and b are constants. Integrating the equation results in quadratic function: f_we=a^2/2
S_we^2+bS_we+c
Where c is constant. Predicted values of fwe and Swe obtained by extrapolation of the quadratic
equation above are then can be used in Welge equation for predicting Npd as a function of fwe, which

Obstacles to achieve higher market penetration of takaful are because of lack of players, market
awareness, lack of products, low capitalisation of takaful companies, poor culture of consumer
education and inconsistent messages from some Shariah advisories (Parker, 2006). Competitive
advantages of takaful are on the unique offerings and follow the Shariah compliance that should be
utilised by the Malaysian takaful operators.

32. Summary Of Corrine Carvalho s Primer On Biblical...
Introduction
Biblical interpretation is an area that leaves historians and students perplexed. There are many
questions as to when exactly a certain text was written, whom it was written by, origin of sources, etc.
To answer these questions, Christian historians have developed methods in order to make sense of the
messages in the bible. In particular, Corrine Carvalho s Primer on Biblical Methods works to critically
explain and interpret scripture so readers feel less skeptical about the legitimacy of the text. These
methods include the following: Source criticism, the reconstruction of written sources an ancient
author may have used to compose a text. Form criticism, the way a final author has put a text together.
Traditional criticism, the identification of traditions that an author employs in constructing new texts.
Historical criticism, the historical circumstances that have led an author to write a given text
(Carvalho, 2009, p. 3); they are encouraged for readers to use throughout the bible. If you look at
Psalms, you will find prayers of a poetic nature, almost like a song like. This writing style often leaves
the meaning of its text open for interpretation because it speaks in metaphors, it contains little to no
defining statements. Carvalho s methods can be applied to Psalm 18.
THEO 223 Endterm: Intermediate Exegesis
Source Criticism Psalms 18 is the Psalm of King David. David provides several lines of imagery and
metaphors in the beginning of the Psalm to emphasize the degree in which the Lord has helped him.
The Lord also thundered in the heavens, and the most high uttered his voice (Attridge et al, 2006,
Psalm 18:13, p. 746)...He reached down from on high, he took me; he drew me out of mighty waters
(Attridge et al, 2006, Psalm 18:16, p. 747). However, the Psalm has an abrupt shift in subject matter
that suggests the psalmist has put the whole thing together from separate sources. It begins with Psalm
18:20, The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanliness of my
hands he recompensed me (Attridge et al, 2006, Psalm 18:20, p. 747). Every verse before verse 20
