Biblical Cora Swallowed Dathan
EDITORS COMMENTS
Cora Dathan Swallowed Up: A Biblical Scene from the 19th Century This illustration depicts a dramatic moment from the Old Testament story of Cora Dathan, a character from the Book of Numbers in the Bible. In this scene, Cora, along with her husband Dathan, and 50 other Israelites, had challenged Moses' leadership and God's authority. As a punishment, the earth opened up and swallowed them alive, along with their families and all their possessions. This evocative print, believed to date from the late 19th century, captures the moment of divine retribution. Cora, with a look of terror and despair on her face, is shown being consumed by the earth, her outstretched arms reaching out in a desperate plea for mercy. The swirling earth around her creates a sense of chaos and destruction, while the somber colors and intricate detailing add to the overall sense of solemnity and awe. The illustration serves as a powerful reminder of the consequences of challenging God's authority and the importance of faith and obedience. It is a poignant and thought-provoking depiction of a biblical story that continues to resonate with audiences today, offering a glimpse into the rich history and symbolism of Christianity in the 19th century.
