1. "Genesis 22" is from the old testament in the bible and is a passage from the bible.

2. The text is about when God wants to test Abrahams faith in him. He tells Abraham to go to the mountains where he should sacrifice Isaac. Abraham does as God says and travels to the mountains together with Isaac, when they arrive Abraham and Isaac goes to where the altar shall be build. Isaac is laid on the altar and Abraham is about to sacrifice him just as an angel tells him to stop. God has seen how much faith Abraham have in him and tells him to sacrifice the ram that's caught in bush behind him.

3. Abraham: Father, faithful to God.
 Isaac: Son of Abraham and Sara, suspicious about sacrifice.

4. The story fits into the theme "Choices and Consequences" since Abraham have the choice between disobeying God and not sacrifice Isaac, knowing that would bring him misfortune. Or Sacrifice Isaac his only son to please God and follow his faith. ]]> 2016-12-08 08:15:23 UTC https://padlet.com/klg3/uejfwktoyokl/wish/142479275 Auggie Wren's Christmas Story https://padlet.com/klg3/uejfwktoyokl/wish/142479399 Janne, Martin and Sabrina.

Poor Neil still can't do any community theatre. Not only does he never receive any comeuppance for his role in Neil's suicide, he doesn't even seem to realize he was at fault.

The speaker stands in the woods, considering a fork in the road. Both ways are equally worn and equally overlaid with un-trodden leaves. The speaker chooses one, telling himself that he will take the other another day. Yet he knows it is unlikely that he will have the opportunity to do so. And he admits that someday in the future he will recreate the scene with a slight twist: He will claim that he took the less-traveled road.

The peom Consists of four stanzas of five lines. The rhyme scheme is ABAAB;
