EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a pivotal moment in biblical history - the first Passover. Taken from "The Bible Picture Book" published by Thomas Nelson in the mid-20th century, this image transports us back to ancient Egypt during the time of Moses. Intricately detailed costumes bring to life the characters involved in this significant event. The solemn expressions on their faces reflect both fear and hope as they prepare for God's final plague upon Egypt. This divine sign, symbolized by blood smeared on doorposts, would spare their households from tragedy. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the power of faith and obedience. The celebration depicted here is not merely a feast but an act of profound gratitude for deliverance from slavery. It marks the beginning of a new chapter - the Exodus - where God leads His people out of bondage towards freedom. This photograph serves as a visual testament to one of Christianity's most important stories found within the Old Testament. Its historical significance resonates with believers worldwide, offering insight into our religious heritage. Preserved through meticulous photography techniques by William Henry Margetson, this image stands as a reminder that art can illuminate moments that words alone cannot fully capture or convey. Through its timeless appeal, it continues to inspire contemplation and reflection on our spiritual journey today.
