The Biblical World in The Sound and the Fury (Location)

In the Negro church on Easter Sunday, the Reverend Shegog transports the congregation back to the world described in the Bible: Egypt, where the Israelites were held as slaves; Bethlehem, where the Roman soldiers came to kill Mary's infant; Jerusalem, with the hill at Calvary and "de sacred trees" (the three crosses, 296) and the tomb that was the site of "de resurrection" (297).
