Christopher Vogler The Writers Journey
brings punishment on those who offend the order of the gods. T h e god in this case
is Marsellus Wallace. Brett and Roger have offended M r . Big by trying to cheat h i m
in the deal for the briefcase.
Jules makes his power manifest by shooting Roger without provocation. Before
executing Brett, Jules performs a ritual, reciting the Bible passage from Ezekiel
2 5 : 1 7 which is his trademark:
"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities o f the
selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good
will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's
keeper and the finder of lost children. A n d I will strike down upon thee with great
vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brother.
And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you."
