A WOMAN WHO HAS FAITH |
One might say this is the most touching story in the Bible.
Wow
This story has been treated so beautifully by so many artists
I think this is my favorite gallery showing for the year
thank you for this beautiful presentation
What a difficult scene to depict on canvas — so much going on. Others are touching, jostling Jesus and the disciples. Surely she’s not the only one who reached for his cloak, yet she is the one Jesus responded to and healed — for her faith.
He could have just healed her without comment. Who knows how often that happened (John 21:25). Here he purposefully made a public display of her act of faith amidst a crowd, as Tissot portrays. Thus my vote for no. 1!
