In the works of Shakespeare and the King James (or 'Authorised') Bible, the word 'hath' is used a lot. In Matthew's gospel chapter 19 verse 29 Jesus says to his followers, "Every one that HATH forsaken houses, brethren, sisters, fathers, mother, wife, children or lands for myt name's sake, shall receive an hundredford, and shall inherit everlasting life." So in that verse it means 'has'.
All the best with your homework! (It's worth it, really!)

Old English for "have". Religious people like to use Old English because one version of the Bible was written in it. They think it makes them sound more authoritative.
The other day, on a Yahoo chat forum, someone said, "Jesus was begotten of God". I asked the person if he was begotten. He said no! People frequently don't know what a word means when they use it, especially Old English.

It means "have" (or "has)
Like "hell hath no fury like a woman scorned", means hell has no fury like a woman scorned.
