ESCAPING

#35 is splendid. All the other paintings are worth mentioning. So much beautiful art all around us that also lifts our spirit. Thank you again, Dan.

I liked Raphael, #12 and #21 where the iron door is depicted. That portion of story always seemed significant to me. “And the iron door opened on its own.” Not only were all the guards somnolent, but even the chains, locks, and doors were subject to God’s will.

No wonder Peter thought he was dreaming.

By the way, this escape was repeated in modern times with a Chinese Christian. He was beaten nearly to death, and couldn’t walk. An angel opened his door, he walked out of the prison without being seen, having been healed of all his injuries. He got to the wall around the prison, topped by barbed wire. The angel said ‘Jump’ and he did, clearing the barbed wire and landing many feet away.

Needless to say, the guards had no idea what happened.

I’ll have to look up the book where I read this.
