1688 Asleep Biblical Calm Disciples Forces Gospel Jesus Matthew Miracle Sleep Sleeping Storm Testament Wake Waking Woken Awakened Calming Calms
EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century print depicts a tranquil moment from the New Testament's Gospel of Matthew (8:23-27). In the image, Jesus sleeps peacefully in the stern of a small boat as his disciples navigate through turbulent waters. The sea, once calm, has been whipped into a frenzy by the fierce winds and waves. The disciples, fearful for their lives, awaken their Master, crying out, "Lord, save us! We're going to drown!" Jesus, with a gentle touch, rebukes the wind and waves, commanding them to cease. Instantly, the storm abates, and the sea becomes calm once more. The disciples are left in awe of their Lord's divine power over the forces of nature. This beautiful print, created in the late 17th century, captures the essence of this miraculous event. The use of light and shadow, as well as the intricate details of the boat, disciples, and Jesus, transport us back in time to this pivotal moment in Christian history. The image serves as a powerful reminder of Jesus' divine nature and his ability to calm even the most chaotic of situations. The print, which is part of the rich artistic and cultural heritage of the Christian faith, is a testament to the enduring power of the biblical story and its ability to inspire and uplift generations. Whether used as a decorative piece in a home or as a study aid for religious scholars, this print is a valuable addition to any collection.
