J.R.R Tolkien was a Christian, and that influenced his books. He did not set out to make any intentional comparisons on the Bible.

What is the meaning of the Ring in The Fellowship of the Ring?

The Ring means sin. And when Frodo destroyed the ring in Mt. Doom, he was casting away his sins. Like we do when we ask Jesus in our lives, He takes away our sins. Sorry, Christianity cannot steal this one. The ring was power and domination. Frodo did not cast it away, it had him in the end. Just as Gandalf said, Smeagol had a part to play yet. If it was not for him, Frodo would have kept it.


What is the conflict of The Lord of the Rings the Fellowship of the Ring?

The main conflict can be seen as the struggle to get the Ring destroyed and to keep Sauron from getting it. The first volume, Fellowship of the Ring, is mostly an account of a journey, and the conflict is with obstacles between the protagonists and the destination. These obstacles include, but are not limited to: -Black Riders -An evil forest -Evil tomb spirits -More Black Riders -Bitterly cold and snowy weather -Wolves -A monster in a lake -Lots of orcs -A Balrog, a being of fire and shadow -Lots more orcs It should also be noted that there is also a less physical and more internal conflict: the struggle to resist the power of the Ring. The ring wants to get back to Sauron, and tries to poison the minds of those near it, so the protagonists must be constantly resisting its lure.

Who wrote the gospel between Matthew and Luke in the New Testament?

The gospel of Mark is thought to have been written by John whose Latin surname was Mark. His mother Mary is mentioned in Acts;Acts 12:12 So, when he had considered this, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose surname was Mark, where many were gathered together praying.Mark was also believed to be the cousin of Barnabas:Colossians 4:10 Aristarchus my fellow prisoner greets you, with Mark the cousin of Barnabas (about whom you received instructions: if he comes to you, welcome him),Although not an apostle Mark was the companion of the apostle Paul and also the apostle Peter. The early church recognised Mark as the writer of the Gospel of Mark. Irenaeus said "after the death of Peter and Paul, Mark delivered to us in writing things preached by Peter" -Irenaeus, Against Heresies, III.i.1Others, including Papias, Justin Martyr, Clement of Alexandria, Tertullian, Origen and Eusibus agree that Mark wrote the gospel. There is no good reason why the early church writers would attribute the book to Mark - a non-apostle - if he did not write it.

What does JHSY stamped inside your ring mean?

Usually letters like that inside of a ring are makers marks or initials of the people for whom the ring was made. If a mark is right next to a karat mark it could tell us something about the gold itself. A ring marked 10k EPN would mean 1ok gold electroplated to nickel base metal. That item is not real gold.


Why is john's gospel is not a synoptic gospel?

A:Matthew, Mark and Luke are known as synoptic gospels because they are moderately similar in content. We now know that this comes about because the authors of Matthew and Luke copied much of the content of Mark, often in exactly the same words in the Greek language, as a parallel reading in Greek will show. John's Gospel was not copied from Mark, like the others, but is loosely based on Luke. Being one step removed from the original, and having been written by an author somewhat less concerned with preserving the original content, John differs quite substantially from the others, especially Matthew. For this reason, it is not considered a 'synoptic gospel'.
