EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Rehoboam forbidden by the Prophet Shemaiah to engage in War with the Revolted Tribes of Israel" transports us back to ancient biblical times. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures a pivotal moment from the Old Testament. The scene depicts Rehoboam, son of King Solomon and ruler of Israel, being advised by the revered Prophet Shemaiah. The tribes of Israel had revolted against Rehoboam's rule, demanding relief from heavy taxation and labor imposed during his father's reign. Faced with mounting tensions and eager for conflict, Rehoboam seeks guidance from Shemaiah. In this powerful image, we witness Shemaiah firmly forbidding Rehoboam from engaging in war with his own people. The prophet's wisdom shines through as he imparts divine counsel upon the young king. This illustration is part of Cassells Illustrated Family Bible Superior Edition (Cassell, Petter and Galpin), published around 1880. Through intricate details and masterful composition, this engraving brings to life a significant event that resonates throughout biblical history. It serves as a reminder of the complexities faced by leaders when confronted with rebellion within their own kingdoms. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported into a world where faith intertwines with political strife—a testament to both human nature and divine intervention found within
