Summer Reading Allusions to the Bible:
Much of what we read in Western Literature refers to either Mythological or Biblical Allusions therefore; it is critical for you to understand Biblical Allusions.

Remember we are not focusing on religion but, the Bible as it focuses on Literature. This assignment must be in MLA format.
