Lady Macbeth plays a critical role, especially in the beginning of the play. She cajoles her husband to murder Duncan in order to satisfy her greed. There was not a single moment when I felt sorry for Lady Macbeth while reading the play. In fact, I thought her suffering and distress from guilt was an obvious outcome. Reading Macbeth, especially Lady Macbeth’s lines, reminded me of the bible verse:
Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin; and the sin, when it is full grown, brings forth death.
Lady Macbeth’s lust of authority and more power have begotten sin, which Lady Macbeth suffered from. Then, her sin brought forth her death. I think Lady Macbeth shows a perfect illustration of the verse.
