EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Elymas struck Blind, Acts, Chapter 13, Verses 6-12" is a powerful illustration by Raphael (Raffaello Sanzio of Urbino) from the 19th century. The print depicts a significant biblical moment when Elymas, a sorcerer who opposed Paul and Barnabas on their missionary journey in Cyprus, was struck blind by the power of God. The artist skillfully captures this dramatic scene with intricate details and masterful technique. The image showcases Elymas recoiling in shock as his sightless eyes convey his sudden loss of vision. This visual representation emphasizes the divine intervention that occurred during this encounter. The engraving not only portrays the physical blindness inflicted upon Elymas but also symbolizes spiritual blindness and resistance to God's message. It serves as a reminder of the consequences one may face when opposing divine will. This artwork originated from an illustrated publication called "The Pictorial History of the Bible" by John McGowan in 1835. Its inclusion in this collection highlights its significance as an artistic interpretation of biblical events. With its timeless appeal and profound symbolism, this engraving continues to captivate viewers today. It stands as a testament to Raphael's talent for bringing religious narratives to life through his artistry while inviting contemplation on themes such as faith, obedience, and divine justice.
