EDITORS COMMENTS
The Murrain Amidst the Beasts: A Biblical Account of the Plague of Egypt (Old Testament) This evocative image depicts the biblical account of the Plague of Murrain, one of the ten devastating plagues inflicted upon Egypt during the time of Moses. The Old Testament book of Exodus recounts how God sent this affliction upon the livestock of the Egyptians as part of His divine intervention to free the Israelites from their oppression. In this print, we witness the heart-wrenching scene of diseased cattle and other beasts, their once-robust forms now weakened and emaciated, lying in the desolate landscape. The murrain, a term used to describe a contagious disease that affects livestock, had spread rapidly throughout the land, causing widespread devastation and despair. The Egyptians, who had previously mocked and ridiculed the Israelites for their faith in God, now faced the grim reality of their own suffering. The once prosperous land was now a scene of desolation, with the beasts lying motionless amongst the barren terrain. This powerful image serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of arrogance and disregard for the divine. The plagues, including the Plague of Murrain, were intended to demonstrate God's power and sovereignty over all creation, and to bring about the release of His chosen people from their bondage. The exact date and artist of this print are unknown, but its haunting imagery and historical significance make it a valuable addition to any collection of biblical or historical art. The print invites us to reflect upon the power of faith, the consequences of pride, and the enduring impact of God's intervention in human history.
