Alive Biblical Bringing Elijah Elisha Prophet Raise Raises Raising Shunammite
EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century illustration depicts the biblical story of Elisha raising the Shunamite son to new life. The scene unfolds with the prophet Elisha, dressed in the traditional garb of the time, standing over the lifeless body of the young boy. His hands are extended, palms facing the child, as he prays fervently for his restoration. The mother, a picture of despair and grief, cradles her son in her arms, her eyes filled with tears and anguish. The Shunamites, a people from the region of Shunem in ancient Israel, had shown great kindness to Elisha and his companion, Elijah, by providing them with a place to rest during their travels. In gratitude, Elisha had promised the woman that her son would be raised from the dead if he should die. As Elisha prays, the boy's body begins to tremble, and he is brought back to life. The mother's face transforms from one of sorrow to one of joy and relief, as she holds her living son in her arms once more. The scene is filled with a sense of wonder and awe, as the miracle of new life unfolds before the eyes of those present. This beautiful and evocative illustration, from the Reuben Luke Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the rich and vibrant world of biblical storytelling, and the enduring power of faith and prayer.
