Ironic that the only one she didn't love was the one to set her free.

What is other evidence that that supports that Setha is a Christ-Like figure?

I think it's weird that Paul D and Beloved are together sometimes. Beloved could be trying to get revenge on Sethe, which would be more evidence that Sethe was involved in Beloved's death.

I noticed Morrison uses the color red a lot throughout the story, and I wonder if it is a reference to the baby's blood, or the baby's anger? Maybe lust (Sethe and Paul D)

Beloved coming out of the river fully clothed was like a baptism.

It is very interesting to see the way that Morrison includes subtle details within the texts like 124, and the underlying reason behind the bestiality and other details like that. It gives a text that seems boring and confusing more depth and complexity and overall makes it more interesting.

something that is super interesting to me is how the author describes sethe's back scars like a tree and how the tree connects to a family tree

I believe that the character of Beloved is still very vague, as I know certain things about her and what she represents, but I'm still confused as to things such as why she decides to return to human form when she does.

I enjoy Toni Morrison's use of shadows as a motif in Beloved. at the carnival, Paul d, Denver, and Sethe's shadows hold hands. this contrasts the usualy positive connotations of light.

It seems that trees are a recurring symbol in the novel: Sethe has her so-called tree on her back, the scars from all the beatings she's taken. There is also discussion about boys hanging from the trees, which is a result of lynching. The tree on her back can be seen as beautiful because it shows how much she endured in order to get out, but it can also be scary and unattractive, as Paul D mentions in one of the chapters. He originally thought it was interesting and beautiful, but when he looks at it again in the bed, he finds it repulsive.

I think it's important to keep in mind that Beloved is only physical when Paul D is around.
