chapter 18

The relationship of the characters to God is fearful. Up until now, the characters of the book have been taking advantage of not being able to see God. But now that God has been made into this real object (the hurricane) they have begun to watch him. Their Eyes were Watching God because they were waiting to see what he would do next. Would he continue to bring destruction to their lives, or would thier finally be peace.
