EDITORS COMMENTS
. This coloured engraving from the 19th century depicts a powerful scene of faith and courage. In this image, we witness a moment of unwavering devotion to Jesus Christ, portrayed by an unknown English artist. The central figure in the print is shown kneeling amidst a storm of stones, seemingly unperturbed by the imminent danger surrounding him. The inscription below references Acts VII from the Bible, suggesting that this brave individual finds solace and strength in their unbreakable bond with Jesus. The delicate hand-colouring adds depth and vibrancy to the artwork, enhancing its emotional impact. It serves as a reminder that even in times of adversity and persecution, having Jesus as our companion can grant us unparalleled peace and resilience. This illustration was originally created for "Scripture History for the Improvement of Youth" published around 1850 by Kelly. Its inclusion in this educational text suggests its purpose was to inspire young readers with tales of biblical heroism and instill within them unwavering faith. As we gaze upon this remarkable print today, it invites us to reflect on our own relationship with Jesus Christ – reminding us that no matter what challenges we face or how dark our circumstances may seem, his presence can provide comfort and fortitude beyond measure.
