"consider the lilies of the field…" when he reads this passage, how do you think it impacts him at this point in the story. for context, read the passage below and analyze important words, phrases or ideas and include them in your response. your response must be a minimum of 3 paragraphs.

As was mentioned in the previous post, Montag loses his temper and runs out of the subway after failing to recall a Bible verse on the train. In this scene, Montag cannot concentrate long enough to remember Matthew 6:28 because of the annoying Denham's Dentifrice advertisement that is blaring through the speakers. Montag compares his ability to remember the Bible verse to a sieve trying to hold sand. At this point on the novel, Montag becomes totally overwhelmed with Bradbury's dystopian society. In Montag's society, consumer culture is present at all times and individuals cannot escape the constant flow of advertisements. Montag is simply attempting to remember a short Bible verse, yet cannot because of the blaring advertisements. Montag is completely disgusted and frustrated to the point that he screams aloud before running off of the train. His reaction to the Denham's Dentifrice advertisement depicts his frustration and angst.
