Which two sections of this excerpt from T. S. Eliot's "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" contain a biblical allusion? I should have been a pair of ragged claws
Scuttling across the floors of silent seas.
And the afternoon, the evening, sleeps so peacefully!
Smoothed by long fingers,
Asleep ... tired ... or it malingers,
Stretched on the floor, here beside you and me.
Should I, after tea and cakes and ices,
Have the strength to force the moment to its crisis?
But though I have wept and fasted, wept and prayed,
Though I have seen my head (grown slightly bald) brought in upon a platter,
I am no prophet-and here's no great matter;
I have seen the moment of my greatness flicker,
And would it have been worth it, after all,
After the cups, the marmalade, the tea,
Among the porcelain, among some talk of you and me,
Would it have been worth while,
To have bitten off the matter with a smile,
To have squeezed the universe into a ball
To roll it toward some overwhelming question,
To say: "I am Lazarus, come from the dead,
Come back to tell you all, I shall tell you all"—
If one cattling a nillow her head,
Should say: “That is not what I meant at all; that is not it, at all.”

Though I have seen my head (grown slightly bald) brought in upon a platter,

To say: "I am Lazarus, come from the dead,  Come back to tell you all, I shall tell you all"—

Explanation:

The two sections of this excerpt from T.S Eliot's "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" that contain a biblical allusion are  Though I have seen my head (grown slightly bald) brought in upon a platter, and

To say: "I am Lazarus, come from the dead,  Come back to tell you all, I shall tell you all"—

From the two sections, allusions are made first of all to John the Baptist whose head was brought on a platter for King Herod and Lazarus who was raised from the dead by Jesus. These are two valid events that happened and are recorded in the Bible.

government is strong when they have the ability to persuade those they govern to believe government has enough power to force them or should be forcing them to do government’s will.

when enough of the citizenry do not believe government can force them or should force them to do its bidding, government has lost or will lose its strength and power to coerce.

when enough of the citizenry do believe government can force or should force them to do its bidding, they become passive at the least or actively pro-government and repeat government’s own rhetoric to pass on what they have been persuaded by government’s propaganda.

a true majority isn’t always needed to govern or to stop government. many times all that is needed is a strong minority. if a determined 30% of the population rises up against government in a concerted effort to bring it down, this size minority usually will succeed as long as those actively opposing the minority are less in force than the minority. so if 41% of the population sits at home watching tv rooting for one side or the other, they don’t matter. it’s the active parties who make a difference.
