Chapter 15

Now the tax collectors and “sinners” were all gathering around to hear him. But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”

Then Jesus told them this parable: “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Does he not leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ I tell you that in the same way there will be more REJOICING IN HEAVEN OVER ONE SINNER WHO REPENTS than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.”

Finally
I have been lurking for years and I finally get to see NC Wyeth painting on FR.
Thank you!
NC was a master of color but his son’s work was earth tones and
a bit depressed.

[Hebrews 11:6]

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Two more to follow. Here are hints:

#2: CLINKCLINKCLINKCLINK

#3: "GIMMEGIMMEGIMME"

[Hebrews 11:6]

Glad you finally hit paydirt!

I have not withheld his works—I just never encounter them. Apparently, his biblical output was low.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Remembered one from here (#7):

[SisterK]

Ah...Thank you. It appears that I did not visit the gallery on that day.

[Hebrews 11:6]

That’ll learn ya!

[InkStone]

Thank you Dan; I followed your link back... much great artwork there indeed. This one is a real beauty!

[nomorelurker]

Tissot at 13 is good as usual. 9 I like. Many different new artist on this post very good, nothing against Rembrant etc. but the new views are good. Thanks again for all the hard work.

[Hebrews 11:6]

The enormous number of artists painting biblical scenes has astounded me since I began this series. To be sure, no subject matches its importance, so in that sense it’s not at all surprising—but every single day I spot a new one.

I don’t regret not indexing them as I went along, because that would have been too much.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Glad I remembered it. I suppose its strong image and the iconic Wyeth style are what stuck with me.

[Scott from the Left Coast]

I neglected to post how taken I was by Kim (again) #41…amongst so many really great works here, that one just grabs me.
