Biblical Hebrew Jeremiah Prophet
EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century illustration depicts the biblical prophet Jeremiah in deep contemplation, surrounded by symbols of his prophetic ministry. Jeremiah, one of the major prophets of the Hebrew Bible, is traditionally credited with authoring the Book of Jeremiah, as well as the Books of 1 and 2 Kings and the Book of Lamentations. The prophet is depicted here with a scroll in hand, symbolizing the divine messages he received from God. The tears streaming down his face represent the sorrow and anguish he felt as he delivered God's messages to the people of Israel, often met with resistance and rejection. The burning city in the background serves as a reminder of the impending destruction of Jerusalem, a prophecy that Jeremiah delivered to the Israelites. The use of rich colors and intricate details in this illustration adds to the emotional depth and intensity of the scene, making it a powerful representation of Jeremiah's story and the importance of his prophetic role in Jewish and Christian traditions."
