What is the difference between moral and mystery plays?

Moral plays and mystery plays are both forms of medieval drama, but they serve different purposes. Moral plays focus on ethical lessons and the struggle between good and evil, often featuring personified virtues and vices to teach moral values. In contrast, mystery plays dramatize biblical stories, exploring religious themes and events from the Scriptures, often performed during religious festivals. While moral plays convey moral instruction, mystery plays aim to entertain and educate audiences about their faith through storytelling.


Would you agree that the author's grandmother was a person strong in character If yes give instances that show this?

Yes, it is a fact that the grandmother was a very strong personality.She was a highly religious lady. She was a conservative lady who hated modern views and ways. She had very strong personal likings and dislikes. Being a religious lady and a widow, she could be seen hobbling about the house in a spotless white dress. She used to get up early in the morning. She said her prayers in a monotonous sing-song. One of her hands was always telling the beads of her rosary. According to the author, she was a symbol of white serenity. She had peace and contentment. She had certain rigid ideas about life. She liked the village school because it was attached to the temple. She sat in the temple reading the scriptures. She hated the English school in the city for various reasons. She was unhappy that there was no teaching about God and the scriptures there. She was quite disturbed.

There were some unique changes in her behaviour. She lay peacefully in bed praying and telling her beads. It is quite difficult to show complete agreement with her outdated views. But she was a strong and determined character. She led her own kind of life and never compromised with her principals. She loved the narrator deeply but never tried to be sentimental or emotional. She had a lasting


How can you recognize Adam and Eve in heaven?

Adam and Eve didn't go to Heaven. They had no business being there, especially after being disobedient to Jehovah God. For starters, they were made to live forever on the Earth. (Genesis 1:28-29) Once they disobeyed however, they became imperfect and died...still on the Earth. Adam and Eve would simply return to dust, a.k.a. break down to the bare elements they were made from and cease to exist after a period of time. (Genesis 3:19) The group that's going to Heaven is relatively small (144,000), and all of these are handpicked by Jehovah and Jesus. (Revelation 14:1-4) Jehovah forbade Adam and Eve from eating of the Tree of Life, which would've meant eternal life for them (Genesis 3:22-23), so if they didn't even earn that, Heaven would definitely be beyond their reach. (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures)
