Comprehension question and answers:
***Why did Martin invite the woman with the baby inside? (The woman was carrying her
baby. She was shabbily and sparsely dressed. On a very cold windy day, she did not
have anything to wrap her baby around and the baby was crying, probably because of
hunger. Seeing their plight Martin invited them inside)
**What did Martin say when Stepanitch asked, are you expecting anyone?”(He said he did
not really expect anyone but he had heard something last night that he could not get
out of his mind. While reading Gospel he had heard someone call his name and whisper
to him, “Expect me. I will come tomorrow)
** How did Martin convince the apple woman to pardon the boy? (He told her that God’s
way is more kind. God would not want the boy to be whipped. If the boy should be
whipped for stealing the apple, what should be done to us for our sins?”
** What did the boy do later to the woman?(Later the boys offered to help her by carrying
her sack for her.)
**Why Martin’s soul did grow glad? (The soul grew glad, when he realized that the people
who he had helped the day before were all messengers of God. He realized that all the
good deeds that he did the day before was in fact done for the God.)
