EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration is taken from Wynkyn de Worde's 1530 edition of "The XII Profytes of Tribulacyon," a collection of biblical stories that focused on the trials and triumphs of God's chosen people. Among the stories retold in this edition was the legendary tale of David and Goliath. In this illustration, we see the young shepherd boy, David, standing before the towering Philistine giant, Goliath. With a determined look in his eyes, David reaches into the nearby brook and selects a smooth, round pebble. The contrast between the tiny figure of David and the colossal Goliath is striking, yet it is David's faith in God and his quick thinking that will ultimately lead to victory. David's sling is slung over his shoulder, and with a steady hand, he prepares to launch the pebble towards Goliath's head. The giant, seemingly unfazed by the small projectile, taunts David, goading him to come closer. But David remains steadfast, trusting in the power of God to guide his aim. The historical significance of this illustration lies in its depiction of the underdog story that has resonated with generations. The tale of David and Goliath serves as a reminder that size and strength are not the only factors that determine success. Faith, courage, and determination can overcome even the greatest of challenges. This illustration, created in the early 16th century, is a testament to the enduring power of religious stories to inspire and uplift. It is a visual representation of the triumph of the human spirit over adversity, a theme that continues to be relevant in today's world.
