Theme Of First Corinthians In Song Of Solomon

255 Words2 Pages
In the novel, “Song of Solomon”, one of the older sisters of the main character is named First Corinthians. She got her name by her father pointing at a random word in the bible. First Corinthians in the bible is a letter from Paul explaining the resurrection of Jesus to the people. Her full name is actually quite ironic in this instance as her last name is Dead but the actual biblical First Corinthians is about the resurrection or coming back to life of Jesus Christ. The religious implications of her name, however, don’t seem to have any effect on her character. Other than the fact that the Dead family does go to church on Sundays, the religious aspects of her first name are more accurate to her full name (First Corinthians Dead) or nonexistent.
