1 And now there was no more contention in all the land of Zarahemla, among all the people who belonged to king Benjamin, so that king Benjamin had continual peace all the remainder of his days. 2 And it came to pass that he had three sons; and he called their names Mosiah, and Helorum, and Helaman. And he caused that they should be taught in all the language of his fathers, that thereby they might become men of understanding; and that they might know concerning the prophecies which had been spoken by the mouths of their fathers, which were delivered them by the hand of the Lord. 3 And he also taught them concerning the records which were engraven on the plates of brass, saying: My sons, I would that ye should remember that were it not for these plates, which contain these records …show more content…
13 Yea, and moreover I say unto you, that if this highly favored people of the Lord should fall into transgression, and become a wicked and an adulterous people, that the Lord will deliver them up, that thereby they become weak like unto their brethren; and he will no more preserve them by his matchless and marvelous power, as he has hitherto preserved our fathers. 14 For I say unto you, that if he had not extended his arm in the preservation of our fathers they must have fallen into the hands of the Lamanites, and become victims to their hatred. 15 And it came to pass that after king Benjamin had made an end of these sayings to his son, that he gave him charge concerning all the affairs of the kingdom. 16 And moreover, he also gave him charge concerning the records which were engraven on the plates of brass; and also the plates of Nephi; and also, the sword of Laban, and the ball or director, which led our fathers through the wilderness, which was prepared by the hand of the Lord that thereby they might be led, every one according to the heed and diligence which they gave unto
The guidelines that Redish puts forth in her book can definitely be shown throughout the article you reference from Bon Appétit. I especially liked how the author writes in a familiar language and uses popular references like that of Beyoncé or #obsessed. Redish writes, “[w]riting can have character and flavor and still be clear” (4062). It certainly goes a long way in making the piece of writing on whole more sociable and user-friendly. The author has clearly gone to the extra effort of matching her tone to what she perceives as the persona of the reader/user. Because of this, the article is a great intro piece to invite customers to explore more of the website or, like you mentioned, find the perfect 2017 cookbook. Likewise, Food52.com
In Randa Jarrar’s essay Why I can’t stand white belly dancers she bluntly addresses the predicament of cultural appropriation. Jarrar’s main purpose is to inform her audience on appropriation, whether it’s done oblivious or uncaring of the situation. There are many ways she presents the situation, the tone she takes on to convey the problem is unsympathetic and transparent.

Jeyarsi, I definitely agree with your points and enjoyed your examples. I think corporations are projecting more progressive images and ideas in order to appeal with a more progressive audience – Millennials. Majority of people growing up with advertising and exposure to the media do not have strict liberal views compared to 50 years ago. It gets controversial because then the audience starts to question the authenticity of the programming. An example that I personally found shocking was that on the television show “the bachelor and the bachelorette” as they have not had a heteronormative lead until 2017. In recent months they announced that they will have the first ever African American Bachelorette. I find it suspicious that it took many

Zadeh is an immigrant from Urmia Iran, plagued by the injustices and maddening systems of American immigration policies. In addition, once he does eventually get into the country, the blockades to starting up his business have no interest in easing off. By exposing these malpractices to a larger audience, Zadeh wants to convince readers that immigration policies are more of a hindrance than a help. Zadeh’s main rhetoric use is pathos, and his emotional ties to his experience gives the reader a very clear and thoughtful description of the horrors of immigration. However, he doesn’t shy away from other appeals, he makes sure to back up his claims with facts given by very credible sources and personal involvement. Since he is a co founder/CEO

In his seminal work “The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano,” Equiano delves into his personal experiences as a slave, illuminating the brutal and dehumanizing realities of slavery and igniting a fervent call for its abolition. With his goal in mind, he strategically employs a multitude of rhetorical devices to evoke a powerful emotional response. Equiano combines emotional appeals, ethos and credibility, and logical arguments to strengthen his call to action, effectively condemn slavery, and advocate for human equality. Equiano’s narrative skillfully intertwined his personal journey with the broader narrative of slavery’s brutality, effectively harnessing the power of personal experience to evoke empathy and emotional resonance in his intended audience. One of the most striking aspects

Unlike Mythology, narratives of the Bible are actual events that took place dating back to the beginning of time. The conception of The Holy Bible’s compilation started thousands of years ago in the land of Egypt. Initially, the Old Testament Scriptures were written in the Hebrew language, however, they were later translated to the Greek. At the onset of the New Testament writings, they were originally recorded in the Greek language. Forty men transcribed the voice of God, which resulted in sixty-six books of the Holy Bible. The Holy Scriptures explained the creations, formation of the world, God, God’s chosen people, sin, and the plan of salvation as well.

Now Joseph Smith tells us that God will provide three witnesses whom God will show these things, meaning the golden plates. Yet, Martin Harris clearly states he was not shown them except in his imagination (spiritual eyes) and confirmed that this was the case also with Oliver Cowdery and David Whitmer. So isn’t the testimony of the three witnesses invalid? And God is specific in his revelation to Joseph Smith when he states: And to none else will I grant this power, to receive this same testimony among this generation D&C 5:11 Also in the Book of Mormon 1830 ed.
