Greek, Roman, and Renaissance vs. Hebrew, Christian, and Medieval

The Decameron and The Canterbury Tales seem to have a closer outlook to the Greek and Roman literature than the Hebrew, Christian, early Medieval, and late Medieval literature.  The Hebrew literature is the Old Testament, the Christian is the New Testament, the some of the early and late Medieval literature are The City of God, and The Little Flowers of St. Francis.  The Decameron and The Canterbury Tales were written in the time of the Early Renaissance when some people started moving a bit away from Christianity (although very many people still believed in God and Jesus Christ as the source of the full potential of man) and started reading more of the Roman and Greek literatures.

Jesus’ Miracles

As you read through the New Testament, you will find in the four gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, several accounts of Jesus’ miracles.  Now, why would these miracles be so important for four different men, who were the first followers of Jesus, write pretty much all of the same miracles ever performed by Jesus?  Well, it is thanks to the Bible, God, Jesus, and my English 2 teacher, that I can share the answer.
