Best Answer

The biblical allusions to mercy in "Of Plymouth Plantation" relate to the idea of God's compassion and forgiveness towards sinners, analogous to how the Native Americans were shown mercy by the Pilgrims. Just as apostles like Paul emphasized the importance of mercy and grace in Christianity, the Pilgrims sought to demonstrate these virtues in their interactions with others, including the Native Americans, whom they viewed as recipients of God's mercy. By drawing on biblical themes of mercy, the text of "Of Plymouth Plantation" emphasizes the Pilgrims' belief in God's providence and their efforts to live according to biblical principles in their new community.
