Ralph and Jack from Lord of the Flies: and how they relate to the Bible

A good biblical parallel is in chapter titles; A View to a Death, and Cry of the Hunters when Ralph looses his tribe members to Jack’s tribe because of jack’s persuasion of how much of a better chief he is. Jack also says that he is better than Ralph because he knows how to hunt, which allows them to have feats and fun unlike under Ralph’s tribe. As soon as most of the boys join Jack’s tribe they start doing evil deeds, like worshiping the beast by giving it a gift (pigs head), or stealing Piggy’s glasses. They even murdering two boys, and trying to hunt down Ralph too. This is related to the bible by Jack likening to Satan, and Ralph likening God. People follow Satan because he persuades and tricks people into doing his evil ways. Also it’s a lot easier to sin and follow Satan’s ways than to go along with God’s righteous ways. Satan’s way which leads you to hell, in which most people take, is like a wide and straight road (referring to Jack’s tribe growing bigger with his persuasions). While God’s way to heaven is a narrow, winding path, and only a few people find that way (referring to Ralph’s small tribe).
