Which detail from The Hobbit best reveals the development of the theme of friendship above all else? How?

1)The dwarves allow Bilbo to accompany them on their quest. This shows that the dwarves value his friendship.


2)When the spiders have tied up all of the dwarves, Bilbo sets them free with Sting. This reveals that one can overcome fear when needed to help friends.


3)The Master of Lake-town abandons his city and people when Smaug approaches. This reveals that friendship is not as important as one's own self-preservation.


4)The eagles do not come to the aid of the men, dwarves, and elves in the final battle. This shows that friendship cannot always overcome fear.

Respuesta :

it would be 2 because bilbo saved their lives so they were thankful for it and started a relationship so hope that answers your questions

The answer you'd be looking for is 2. Bilbo is their friend so he'd do anything to save them.
