The selected sample consists of 2 English religious texts and 2 Arabic religious texts. In both types of data, linguistic devices are resorted to when approaching religious texts in respect to the descriptive persuasive strategies. The macrostructures whereby comforting is included can be different between English and Arabic religious contexts due to the religious differences between these two types of data.
