Respuesta :

I would have to read the paragraph to give you a proper answer. Could you perhaps take a picture of the paragraph so I may read it?

Alexander says the men were "vagabonds and destitute" to remind them that they were poor pastors before Philip changed their lives, as shown in option B.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Alexander wanted to reinforce his father's importance in the shepherds' lives.
  • He did this, to show how the shepherds owed Philip their loyalty, and leaving the kingdom would be a sign of ingratitude.
  • That's because Alexander claimed that before Philip, shepherds had very bad lives, had no well-established housing, and lived with destitute vagabonds.
  • In other words, he claimed that pastors lived inhospitably, a life of low quality.

He showed that Philip changed the lives of pastors, making them prosper and have a high quality of life.
