EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Saint Matthias the Apostle, Patron Saint of Carpenters and Tanners - The Moment of His Martyrdom This evocative image captures the final moments of Saint Matthias, the apostle chosen by the early Christian community to replace the notorious Judas Iscariot. The solemn expression on his face and the determined gaze of his eyes convey a sense of acceptance and courage in the face of imminent death. Saint Matthias is depicted here with an axe, a symbol of his martyrdom. According to tradition, he was beheaded during the persecution of Christians under Emperor Claudius II in Rome around AD 68. The axe, a brutal instrument of death, is transformed into a sacred object, a reminder of the ultimate sacrifice made by this humble disciple of Jesus Christ. The historical significance of this image lies in its representation of a pivotal moment in the early Christian church. The selection of Matthias to fill the vacant apostolic seat was a crucial event in the early history of Christianity, as it ensured the continuity of the apostolic mission. The image serves as a testament to the enduring faith and resilience of the early Christians, who faced persecution and death with unwavering commitment to their beliefs. Saint Matthias, a carpenter by trade, is also the patron saint of carpenters and tanners. His image is a source of inspiration and protection for those in these professions, reminding them of the importance of hard work, dedication, and faith in the face of adversity. This powerful and moving image invites us to reflect on the enduring legacy of the apostles and the lessons they offer us in our own lives.
