I need a four page essay 

questions are: Use your research to understand the author, the occasion, the message and then summarize your findings in essay form. Why was this scripture written? How would it have been received by the first hearers, and how is the passage understood today? Where is it placed in the canon, and why? Are there any literary or symbolic motifs? What did you learn (if anything) from this passage?

Compose a thesis sentence that will guide the writing of a 3-5 page paper (750-1000 words exclusive of title page, bibliography and footnotes). A thesis is a sentence that informs the reader what the paper is going to tell them (for example, This paper will show that or This passage reveals).
