EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Nehemiah and Sanballats Servant" takes us back to biblical times, offering a glimpse into an ancient story. Created by the English School in the 19th century, this print is now part of a private collection. The scene depicted here is from the Book of Nehemiah in the Old Testament. It showcases Nehemiah, a prominent figure known for his role in rebuilding Jerusalem's walls after their destruction. Standing before him is Sanballat's servant, who appears to be engaged in conversation or perhaps even confrontation with Nehemiah. The intricate details and skilled craftsmanship of this engraving bring these characters to life, allowing us to imagine ourselves witnessing this significant moment firsthand. The intensity on Nehemiah's face suggests determination and resilience as he faces opposition while carrying out his mission. This artwork was originally created as an illustration for Cassells Illustrated Family Bible Superior Edition around 1880. Its inclusion in such a prestigious publication speaks volumes about its artistic merit and ability to capture the essence of biblical stories. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of the historical significance but also of the timeless themes found within religious texts that continue to resonate with people today.
