A job promotion, a public thanks, and an overnight visit from the king are what Macbeth (c. 1014-August 15, 1057) received from the king in the Shakespearean play "Macbeth".
Specifically, in Act 1 Scene 3, Macbeth learned from the noble Scotsmen Angus and Ross that he had been promoted to Thane of Cawdor. With the previous titleholder's disgrace and execution, Macbeth was given the powerful title and the profitable possessions by the decision of King Duncan I (d. August 14, 1040). In Scene 4, Macbeth received the public expression of royal gratitude for success against overwhelming odds in the battle against invading Norwegians and traitorous Scotsmen. Additionally, he was given last minute notice of the royal decision to spend the night in the Macbeth home at Inverness Castle.

What three things did the witches tell Macbeth?
The three prophecies of the three witches predict MacBeth's rise from thane of Glamis, to thane of Cawdor, to King of Scotland. The three apparitions that the three witches conjure then predict MacBeth's downfall. First, an armed head warns MacBeth to dismiss MacDuff, thane of Fife. Second, a bloody child assures MacBeth that no man born of woman will harm him. But MacDuff was born by Caesarian section. And, third, a child with a crown on his head and a tree branch in his hand promises that MacBeth will only be defeated when Great Birnam Wood moves to Dunsinane Hill. But MacDuff has only to cut branches off the trees for his men to wear, and thereby move the wood in that manner up the hill.
What predictions did the witches give to Macbeth?
In the Shakespearean play, the witches made two sets of promises to Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057]. The first set was an implied promise of glorious job changes. In Act 1 Scene 3, the witches implied that Macbeth would become the Thane of Cawdor and the King of Scotland. These were implied promises, because they greeted him with these two titles. There was an implicit promise that he would occupy each of those positions. The second set of promises was made in Act 4 Scene 1. Macbeth sought the witches to get an exact idea of what he needed to consolidate his kingship in the aftermath of killing King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040] and becoming the King of Scotland. In this second visit, the witches in essence promised Macbeth security in his reign. They promised him that he only had to beware of Macduff. Likewise did they promise him that he needed to worry only about Birnam Wood moving to Dunsinane Castle and to fear only a man not born of woman. But the witches didn't connect the three baleful events. Specifically, they didn't identify Macduff as the man not born of woman. Macbeth was left trying to sort out fantastical interpretations of the dangerous mystery man. He wasn't told, or helped to find, the answer in Macduff's being delivered, not born, by Caesarian section from a dead mother who therefore was no longer a living, breathing woman but a corpse.
What is an offer in drama?
In drama, an "offer" refers to a proposal or suggestion made by a character that advances the narrative or enhances interaction within a scene. Offers can take many forms, including dialogue, actions, or emotional expressions, and are essential for creating dynamic exchanges between characters. They invite responses, shaping the direction of the story and the development of relationships on stage. Essentially, an offer is a way to initiate conflict, collaboration, or revelation in the performance.
What reasons did Macbeth give for not killing Duncan?
Macbeth in his soliloquy in Act 1 Scene 7 starting with the words, "If it were done when 'tis done, then 'twere best it were done quickly" gives a number of reasons why he should not kill Duncan. He had many more reasons for not killing King Duncan than for carrying out the killing. For example, he owed the King respect as as cousin, host, and subject. Killing the King disrespected Duncan's position as benefactor, cousin, guest, and king. Additionally, the King was beloved and respected by the people of Scotland, and they were likely to be outraged by his murder. Finally, if people got the idea that you could become king by killing the king, wouldn't they do the same to Macbeth if he became king in this way? (And of course this is exactly what happened.) In addition he says to his wife that he should enjoy his new titles while they are still new. There was only one reason that Macbeth could offer himself in favor of the murder. That sole reason was his ambition, and Macbeth didn't think much of it, calling it "vaulting ambition which o'erleaps itself". Macbeth was a loyal servant to Duncan and saw Duncan as a great king. Duncan was also an esteemed guest at the house of Macbeth at the time. Killing Duncan went against all of these logical reasons Macbeth had thought of.
What is Friar Laurence discussing aloud to himself at the beginning of act 2 scene 3?
He is discussing the science of herbology, the study of the "powerful grace that lies in herbs". He has gone out in the early morning ("grey-eyed morn") with a basket ("osier cage") to pick plants which he will make into potions. This is preparing us for Act IV Scene 1 when he will offer Juliet a knockout potion so she can fake her death.
