Abraham's Farewell to Haran: A Journey of Faith and Obedience (1560-92, Abraham Leaves Haran, oil on canvas) marks the beginning of Abraham's epic journey from his hometown Haran, as per God's command. In contrast, Jacob's Dream at Bethel (1852, Jacobs Dream, oil on canvas) recalls his peaceful sojourn near the well in Haran, where he encountered the divine. Haran, a place of both departure and divine encounter, is symbolized in this Rikka flower arrangement. The well at Haran (Jacob talks with Rachel, Gerrit Bleker, Frederik de Wit, 1638) was a focal point for Jacob's encounters with Rachel and Leah, as well as his encounter with the men (Jacob and the men at the well, print maker: Jan van Londerseel, Gillis Claesz). The Native American woman's head-and-shoulders portrait (1907, Photograph by J) reminds us of the diverse people who have lived in the land throughout history. The stone pit (Jacob rotates the stone pit, Claes Jansz. Visscher (II), Nicolaes Visscher Jan van Londerseel) is a testament to Jacob's perseverance and determination. Haran, a place of both challenges and blessings, continues to captivate our imagination.
