Claims Goods Heavenly Image Possessions Sayings Temporal Things Worldly Coin
EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Jesus Christ, Render Unto Caesar" by the English School in the 19th century beautifully captures a pivotal moment in biblical history. The print showcases Jesus Christ, surrounded by his disciples, as he holds up a coin with an expression of wisdom and grace on his face. The image represents the famous story from the Bible where Jesus is confronted about paying taxes to Caesar. In this thought-provoking scene, Jesus utters the profound words "Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's and unto God what is God's". This powerful statement reminds us of the delicate balance between our earthly possessions and our spiritual connection with divinity. Through this artwork, we are reminded that while we live in a material world filled with worldly goods and possessions represented by the coin in Jesus' hand, it is essential to remember our heavenly purpose. The superscription on the coin symbolizes temporal claims that often distract us from focusing on matters of greater significance. This enchanting print serves as a visual reminder for viewers to reflect upon their own lives and consider how they allocate their time, energy, and resources between worldly pursuits and spiritual growth. It encourages contemplation about finding harmony between these two realms while staying true to one's beliefs. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, let us ponder upon its deep meaning and strive towards aligning our actions with both earthly responsibilities and divine purpose.
