Anchor your paper in careful analysis of the documents, not in broad generalities about Jews and Judaism. You should cite specific passages from the documents to support your argument. Do not, however, include long quotations of passages. You are writing for an audience that has read these texts.

In the Exodus 14 text before us we can see that the children of Israel are in grave danger. Pharaoh had released them from bondage but then changed his mind Pharaoh and was actively pursuing them. The Red Sea was in front of them, sweltering mountains on both sides and the Egyptian army coming in from behind. A no win situation. It looks like there is no way out.

The scene, which takes place between Don Draper and Roger Sterling in Draper’s office, was one that really caught my attention.
