EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image from the first century, Paul and Barnabas are depicted in the midst of an astonishing scene at Lystra in Anatolia. According to the New Testament account in the Book of Acts (14:8-18), the two missionaries had recently healed a man who had been lame from birth. Grateful for this miracle, the people of Lystra mistakenly believed that Paul and Barnabas were gods, and they began to offer sacrifices and worship them. Paul and Barnabas are shown here in the act of discouraging this idolatrous behavior, with Paul holding up his cloak to prevent the offerings from being placed upon it. Paul's expression conveys a mixture of surprise, dismay, and determination, while Barnabas looks on with a more patient and understanding gaze. The crowd, composed of men, women, and children, presses forward in their fervor, their faces expressing various emotions ranging from awe to devotion. This moment in the early Christian mission represents a significant turning point in the spread of the new religion. While Paul and Barnabas were not gods, they possessed the power of God through the Holy Spirit, and their miraculous healings served as evidence of the divine presence among the people. This event at Lystra highlights the complex interplay between religious beliefs and cultural practices in the ancient world, as well as the challenges and opportunities faced by early Christian missionaries in spreading the message of their faith. The intricate details of this print, with its rich colors and dynamic composition, bring the scene to life and transport us back to the bustling streets of Lystra in the first century. The image serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring impact of religious beliefs and the transformative power of faith.
