How does jack's reaction to Simon's death differ from the reaction of the followers?
Wiki User
∙ 6y ago
Jack convinces the boys (and arguably himself) that it was the beast they killed, which was their first reaction upon seeing Simon due to mob mentality. Even though Ralph and Piggy admit to each other they knew it was Simon, Jack perpetuates the myth of the beast on his side of the island. This is arguably because in keeping fear of the unknown alive on the island, Jack is better able to lead in a totalitarian-like way. He convinces the boys that even though that night they thought they had killed the beast, that they actually hadn't - that they actually couldn't - and he suggests leaving sacrifices for it instead.

Jesus' death itself didn't particularly strengthen his followers. What really strengthened His followers was Him rising from the grave.

However, when He came back from the dead, they knew that He was the son of God and King of the Jews so they believed and had faith in Him.
