The Bible In Paintings 106A: JESUS RISES FROM THE DEAD! Part 1

c.2,200 BC - c.95 AD | by the Father, Son & Holy Spirit

[Hebrews 11:6]

JESUS

IS

RISEN,

INDEED!

Bible Timeline

The Bible reports on Jesus rising to life on Sunday morning in the tomb, but it does not give us details on HOW it occurred — God has left that most momentous of events entirely to our imaginations.

So, today's artwork showing the risen Jesus appears a cappella, without accompanying biblical text.

Good Morning, Dan.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Say-hey, Mary-Lou.

[etabeta]

Hallelujah, Christ has risen! Triumph over death, freedom once and forever. God bless us all in Jesus name.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Resurrection Monday in September. Hallelujah, indeed!

[spankalib]

I'm sure you noticed how many St. George's Crosses are depicted in several of these.

"Interpreting" kindly, I'll take it symbolize "victory" over death...

For me, its symbolism 'takes me out' of the meditation of the scene, iow, not appropriate. Too militaristic for me, maybe in an 'onward christian soldiers' sense...I can get that...still, its an element that seems...out of place...like its insertion into the composition was too obvious..."look at this symbol", I dunno. Just me mebbe.

[Hebrews 11:6]

One is never wrong to focus closely on Jesus and Him crucified--and risen.

Turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full in His wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace

[Albion Wilde]

Team Caravaggio again today! Beautiful composition.

I have no knowledge of the St. George Cross, nor its connotations, militaristic or otherwise. I recognize it as a common symbol, like several national flags and the Red Cross.

Excuse my ignorance, but what are the connotations that are objectionable?

He is risen!

[Hebrews 11:6]

He is risen, indeed!

[spankalib]

For me it has militaristic connotations.

Thanks! I have studied medieval history to some extent, that is, the 30 years war and the various emperors of the Holy Roman Empire, but I missed that.
