EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled 'Jesus Preaching by the Sea of Galilee,' is an exquisite 19th-century interpretation of an episode from the New Testament's Gospel of Luke. The illustration, created by renowned artist Gustave Dore and masterfully engraved by Hildebrand, transports us back to ancient times as we witness Jesus in the midst of a large crowd, preaching by the tranquil waters of the Sea of Galilee. According to the biblical account in Luke Chapter IV, Verses 1-3, Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit after being baptized by John. He went to Nazareth, where he was brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went to the synagogue and stood up to read. The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him, and he opened it and found the place where it was written: 'The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.' In this scene, we see Jesus, a man of the people, addressing a group of men and women, their rapt attention focused on his every word. The water of the Sea of Galilee reflects the calm serenity of the moment, while the vibrant colors of the engraving bring the biblical narrative to life, inviting us to reflect on the profound impact of Jesus' teachings and the enduring power of the Christian faith.
