*An allusion is a reference to a widely known person,place or event. The subject of an allusion is referred to rather than explained in detail.
-Allusions engage the reader and will often help the reader remember the message or theme of the passage.
-Allusions allow the writer to give an example or get a point across without going into a lengthy discourse.

*Flashbacks are interruptions that writers do to insert past events in order to provide background or context to the current events of a narrative. By using flashbacks, writers allow their readers to gain insight into a character’s motivation and provide a background to a current conflict. Dream sequences and memories are methods used to present flashbacks.
-Flashback examples. In the Book of Matthew, we see a flashback has been used when Joseph, governor of Egypt, sees his brothers after several years, Joseph “remembered his dreams” about his brothers and how they sold him into slavery in the past.
