Answer 1

Answer:

This is the answer for this question

Answer 2

Answer:

The child reminds one of Jesus Christ. When the Giant met the little child for the second time, he saw imprints of nails on his palms and feet.

The little boy in the story is Christ in disguise, and he assumes this form so as to offer the Giant a chance at redemption.

Explanation:

The Christ Child’s first interaction with the Giant follows this age-old plot, while also hearkening to the famous Biblical passage, Matthew 25:40: “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” It underscores the Christian theme that a person’s behavior towards their neighbor, and especially towards children and the poor, is a metric of their moral standing. At the end of the story, the Christ Child reveals his true identity—the wounds of the Crucifixion appear on his hands and feet, and the tree he had once tried to climb, symbolic of the cross, is transfigured in gold and silver. This is how he shows the Giant that his kindness to the children has redeemed his soul, and after this he welcomes the Giant into Paradise.
