To: Hebrews 11:6

All great paintings! I love the powerful and emotional intensity of the Caravaggio (#55). The raising of Lazarus is perhaps the best example of Jesus’ active reshaping of reality around him to birth hope in hopelessness.
Also in #71 moving is the grateful, joyous expression of Mary being touched by the hand of Jesus.

A very good morning to you, Alba! You ably articulate a profound point at this early hour, one which provokes reflection. At first glance, I think you're right.
