The roof of the house peeks above the trees, and in the bottom right foreground are two logs, perhaps representing obstacles. In the bottom left foreground, a pig with nap-sack is walking into the frame, heading down the lane. In the distance are hills, representing adventure and perhaps the unknown.
Illustration number 4 depicts the pig building his house of straw. He is on a ladder adding the finishing touches to the top. Behind him are hills, perhaps representing distance from his friends. A bird is flying across the background, representing freedom and independence. It also may represent an omen of a potential visitor. The entire scene is framed in a frame of straw, much as the cover illustration was framed.
In illustration number 6, the wolf is at the door of the straw...
He encompasses the entire illustration. The lines give texture to his fur, making it appear rough and unfriendly. His tongue is hanging out, his teeth are snarling and his eyes are bulging with the pupil facing the reader, creating an evil expression, and the mood of mystery and suspense. His paw is on the door of the straw house, indicating to the reader his intent of entering the house, one way or another. It is obvious to the viewer that something "bad" is about to happen to the little pig. Although the pig is not in the illustration, the reader knows that he is in his straw house, fearing the inevitable.
Overall, Galdone's illustrations have the feel of a timeless classic.

Book Of Revelations Millennial Views and the Book of Revelation The Book of Revelations -- the final segment of the New Testament -- is a particularly contentious and divisive section of the Bible; considerable ambiguity exists surrounding whether to interpret the scripture literally or metaphorically, and the episodes described often seem especially fantastical. Moreover, the author's rhetoric leaves room for multiple interpretations, resulting in the reader drawing unverifiable interpretations. Acknowledging the caveat
The book highlights the actions of the divine, rather than the actions of man. However, if one takes the historical interpretation of the Book of Revelation, the moral content is not lessened. It then stands as an example of what happens to one if they continue to act in a certain way. It is another example of God's punishment and wrath for those that do not obey his word. In

Book of Psalms is a unique book of the Bible. More than any other book of the Bible, it is a personal testament of faith, an intimate communication between the author and his God. Its flowery, poetic style of writing sets it apart from most of the other books of the Old Testament. With the possible exception of Song of Songs, the book of Psalms is a series of lavish
Book of Job - Biblical Allegory Job's tale is one of the most accessible Biblical allegories.

All this was done as a challenge and a test of his faith. The Book of Job opens with a conversation between God
