Answer:
Biblican allusions can be found in the following lines:
- (A) "To offer up a weak, poor, innocent lamb to appease an angry god"
In Biblical times, specifically in the Old Testament, animals were sacrificed in order to ask for forgivenes and end the punishment of God. The animals that were sacrificed were usually lambs, and they needed to be male, first born and flawless. In this case, Macbeth would be the God whose anger needs to be calmed.
- (B) "Angels are bright still, though the brightest fell:"
Originally, Satan was the brightest angel in heaven, that's why he was called Lucifer -the carrier of light- until one day he rebelled against God. This is known as "the fall", he went to Hell along with other fallen angels. Bear in mind that at the very beginning of Macbeth, he is a very positive character, he is corageous and honorable,even King Duncan trusts him, the latter would have never expected Macbeth to kill him. To sum up, it can be said that Macbeth is like Satan because he rebelled against the King who represented God on earth in Elizabethan times.
