God raised up Moses, who would lead the slaves in a great Exodus out of Egypt. There were plagues that God brought upon the Egyptians, ending finally with the death of every firstborn male, both people and animals. It was the final, terrifying plague that convinced the Egyptians to release the Hebrew slaves. The Hebrews were protected by sacrificing a lamb and placing the blood on the lintel of the doorways of their homes. An angel of death would “pass over” their households leaving them unharmed, but anyone who did not observe the “Passover” lost a firstborn male.  This Passover was to be observed throughout their generations. Once again, this was a symbol of Jesus who was to come, who was called the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e By the miraculous parting of the waters of the Red Sea, the people crossed over on dry land as the waters parted like a wall on either side of them, to the right and to the left. However, when the pursuing Egyptian army tried to do the same thing, the waters came back upon them and they all drowned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 4 people are passing the standing waters on dry ground with various types of fish swimming in the wall of water behind them. The chains of their slavery lie on the ground to the left. The figure furthest to the left looks back at the Egyptians who are in pursuit. The second figure delights at the fish staring at him and pokes his finger into the standing wall of water. The third figure, representing doubt, hasn’t quite grasped the idea that the waters of the Red Sea have parted for her to cross, yet she's not drowning. The figure furthest to the right represents people of faith and courage as she dances with the fruit of the Promised Land in her arms, the promise awaiting after the Red Sea is crossed by the entire nation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis painting received an award on exhibition at the Museum of Art, Florida.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cpre class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e\n\u003cpre class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e","brand":"Chapel Galleries","offers":[{"title":"small 24 x 30 Archival Canvas Giclee","offer_id":29724372303954,"sku":"","price":372.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"medium 36 x 45 Archival Canvas Giclee","offer_id":29725779755090,"sku":"","price":837.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"full size 48 x 60 Archival Canvas Giclee","offer_id":29725779787858,"sku":"","price":1215.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/0381\/8066\/products\/Crossing_the_Red_Sea_1501.JPG?v=1565460041"},{"product_id":"noah-and-the-animals-before-the-great-flood","title":"Noah and the Animals Before the Great Flood Archival Canvas Giclee","description":"\u003ch3 class=\"faso-user-p\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eNoah and the Animals Before the Great Flood \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eArchival Canvas Giclee\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faso-user-p\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eby Rosemarie Adcock\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faso-user-p\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faso-user-p\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faso-user-p\"\u003eIn the book of Genesis, God saw that “the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” God decided to blot out His creation with a great flood because the earth was filled with violence, but a man named Noah found favor in His eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faso-user-p\"\u003eNoah was told by God to build an ark in preparation for the flood that would cover the entire surface of the earth, giving him exact instructions as to the composition and measurements of the vessel.

This painting is an allegory of the virtue of endurance. The woman is in the boat with no oars, moving forward with closed eyes, not knowing where she is going, as she moves through the water propelled by a current, not by her own strength. The wilted and drying rose hints at the length of the journey, yet the facial expression is one of peace, implied by the Greek word in the golden letters, which is written as the name on the boat. The Greek word for Endurance is not the way we often think of enduring, in other words, tolerating or putting up with something. Rather, the Greek word for endurance implies a hopeful and expectant waiting for something, which is the very thing that carries us through a difficult unknown, the\u003ca name=\"_Hlk31706596\"\u003e expectation \u003c\/a\u003eof a good outcome at the end of the long journey.

In one of the most famous verses in Micah 6, God declares His pleasure is not in spectacular wealth and offerings we might bring him as if to pay for our wrongdoings, but instead Micah declares that God has indeed declared what he desires and it isn’t complicated; we are to display His very character:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \"Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, with ten thousands of rivers of oil?

Without her own strength to stand, she supports herself by wrapping her hands around his arms as he begins to lift her. The woman is depicted as one poor in spirit, rather than poor in earthly goods.

The young woman rests with peace lilies as a symbol of her trust in God. Our peace and trust in God is described in the New Testament as a peace that passes all understanding. And in some circumstances is truly a miracle and therefore a testimony of God’s presence in our lives no matter what our circumstances may be, knowing that God has all power to control the outcome of any circumstance, and we are never hidden from His sight. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cpre class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e\n\u003cpre class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e","brand":"Chapel Galleries","offers":[{"title":"full size Archival Canvas Giclee 24 x 30","offer_id":29725739647058,"sku":"","price":372.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/0381\/8066\/products\/D._Perfect_Peace-RA-oil-30x24_1b65fa3b-4f16-44ca-8cc7-ad78f719913d.JPG?v=1565484355"},{"product_id":"a-reading-from-the-book-of-isaiah-giclees","title":"A Reading from the Book of Isaiah Archival Canvas Giclees","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Reading From the Book of Isaiah\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArchival Canvas Giclees\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eby Rosemarie Adcock\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Your dead will live;\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eTheir corpses will rise.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eYou who lie in the dust,\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eAwake and shout for joy,\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eFor your dew is as the dew of the dawn,\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eAnd the earth will give birth to the departed spirits.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eIsaiah 26:19\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe painting is a depiction of the first mention in the Bible of the resurrection, which Jesus would teach during His life, although no one really grasped what He was saying.

This crossing of a body of water differs from the Crossing of the Red Sea in many ways. During the Red Sea crossing, it was recorded that there was a wall of water to the right and left of the people, depicted with a wall of fish in my Crossing the Red Sea painting. During this Jordan crossing, the water was stopped a long distance away from where the people crossed. In Red Sea, the people left as slaves, with images of their shackles on the ground. In Crossing the Jordan, we do not see terrified slaves, but instead, equipped warriors, singers and musicians carrying the Word of God, into their promised new land. Pages from the book scatter in the sky, depicting God's word being distributed throughout the new lands.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Jordan River flows at the bottom of a deep valley between two, sometimes three ledges, and the water is ordinarily less than 100 feet wide. The banks are overgrown with trees, and in the spring, the water overflows these banks. Occasionally the rising water can fill the ravine to the brim, making the waters extremely treacherous to cross, as it was at this time. The spies who had crossed into the land alone, strong young men, could swim across, but this would have been impossible for the entire nation. And unlike when all the people crossed the Red Sea, the waters were not already parted. This time the priests carried the ark of the covenant which contained the 10 commandment tablets, and passed before the rest of the people. The dangerous waters began to part only as the priests’ feet touched the waters. What courage! The entire nation of people crossed over on dry land and arrived just outside the great walled city of Jericho, where God miraculously caused the walls to fall down flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cpre data-hook=\"description\" class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e\n\u003cpre data-hook=\"description\" class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e","brand":"Chapel Galleries","offers":[{"title":"single card with envelope","offer_id":46538922459303,"sku":null,"price":3.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set of 5 Cards with envelopes","offer_id":29740535709778,"sku":"","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set of 10 cards with envelopes","offer_id":29740535742546,"sku":"","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/0381\/8066\/products\/CROSSING_THE_JORDAN_40x60_c0f022c2-a9c1-406a-be69-d021b37f935d.JPG?v=1565484992"},{"product_id":"joseph-and-his-brothers-giclees","title":"Joseph and His Brothers Archival Canvas Giclees","description":"\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eJoseph and His Brothers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eArchival Canvas Giclees\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJoseph was a direct descendant of Abraham. As a boy, Joseph was favored by his father Jacob in such a way that his brothers hated him. When he had dreams that his parents and brothers would all bow down to him someday, the brothers had enough. Given an opportunity, they threw Joseph into a pit and sold him for 20 pieces of silver to slave traders who were on their way to Egypt. In this way, Joseph was a “type” of Jesus whom Judas betrayed for 30 pieces of silver. The brothers then took Joseph’s torn robe to their father to convince him Joseph was killed by a wild animal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYears passed, and Pharaoh, king of Egypt, had 2 identical dreams that only Joseph was able to interpret. The first dream involved ears of corn both healthy and withered; the second dream involved cows, one healthy, one starving and ugly. Joseph interpreted both dreams, saying that God was warning that 7 years of great abundance would come to Egypt, followed by 7 years of the worst famine they ever knew, and instructed Pharaoh how to prepare. Pharaoh, seeing that God had blessed Joseph with great wisdom, appointed him as the ruler second in power so that the people might survive the great famine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the famine spread, Joseph’s brothers eventually travelled to Egypt for food so they wouldn’t starve.

The bridegroom is coming!” During the period of time of waiting, the bride would have spent preparing for the wedding day.\u003cbr\u003eThe 5 wise virgins described in a parable of Jesus are seen with their lanterns, prepared for their Lord’s return. The groom’s friends announce His return. The wine glass is broken, symbolizing a covenant that cannot be changed again. Easter lilies are in full bloom, and roses are thrown in celebration. When the couple became engaged, the groom went to the house of the bride to ask her father for her hand in marriage; but this time the groom meets the bride in the street, not all the way to her home, and takes her back to the father’s house where the wedding feast was to take place. Likewise, when Jesus returns, the Bible describes Him meeting His bride in the air to take her back to His Father, to Heaven, where the great Marriage Supper will someday take place, when all believers, referred to as His bride, will be taken into the presence of God to celebrate with joy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cpre class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e\n\u003cpre class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e","brand":"Chapel Galleries","offers":[{"title":"small 21 x 24 Archival Canvas Giclee","offer_id":29725829202002,"sku":"","price":261.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"medium 42 x 48 Archival Canvas Giclee","offer_id":29725844963410,"sku":"","price":945.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"large 56 x 66 Archival Canvas Giclee","offer_id":29725844996178,"sku":"","price":1530.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/0381\/8066\/files\/Marriage_Supper_Home_Viewing-v2-50_-60.jpg?v=1759435608"},{"product_id":"ruth-and-the-barley-harvest-giclees","title":"Ruth and the Barley Harvest Archival Canvas Giclees","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRuth and the Barley Harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArchival Canvas Giclees\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eby Rosemarie Adcock\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe story of Ruth (c. 1140 BC) occurs during the period of the Judges, aptly described by the writer of the Book as a time when “Everyone did what was right in his own eyes.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe widow Ruth, a Moabitess, came with her widowed mother-in-law back to Israel after the death of their husbands.

Most of the men came back terrified, saying they were like grasshoppers in the eyes of the inhabitants. The people also became terrified, at one point referring sarcastically to all the Egyptian graves and pyramids saying, “Were there not enough graves in Egypt that you brought us out here to die in this wilderness?” Because they didn’t believe God fully, Moses and the Israelites wandered in circles in the desert for 40 long years until that entire generation died, except for the faithful two men, Joshua and Caleb, who became the next leaders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis crossing of the Jordan river differs from the Crossing of the Red Sea in many ways. During the Red Sea crossing, it was recorded that there was a wall of water to the right and left of the people. However, during this Jordan crossing, the water was stopped a long distance away from where the people crossed. In Crossing the Red Sea, the people left as slaves, with images of their shackles on the ground. In Crossing the Jordan, instead of terrified slaves, we see equipped warriors, with singers and musicians carrying the Word of God, the Law, into the new land they were about to occupy. Pages from the book scatter in the sky, depicting their duty and calling by God to distribute His righteous Law throughout the new land, which would also serve as a testimony against the lawlessness of the inhabitants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Jordan River flows at the bottom of a deep valley between two, sometimes three ledges, and the water is ordinarily less than 100 feet wide.  The banks are overgrown with trees, and in the spring the water overflows these banks. Occasionally the rising water can fill the ravine to the brim, making the waters extremely treacherous to cross, as it was filled to the brim at this time. The spies who had crossed into the land alone, strong young men, could swim across, but this would have been impossible for the entire nation. And unlike when the people crossed the Red Sea, the waters were not already parted. This time the priests carried the ark of the covenant which contained the 10 commandment tablets and passed before the rest of the people. The dangerous waters began to part only as the priests’ feet touched the waters. The entire nation of people crossed over on dry land and arrived just outside the great walled city of Jericho which would be their first conquest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cpre class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e\n\u003cpre class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e","brand":"Chapel Galleries","offers":[{"title":"small 20 x 30 Archival Canvas Giclee","offer_id":29740574834770,"sku":"","price":309.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"medium 28 x 42 Archival Canvas Giclee","offer_id":29740602949714,"sku":"","price":606.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"large 32 x 48 Archival Canvas Giclee","offer_id":29740602982482,"sku":"","price":792.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"full size 40 x 60 Archival Canvas Giclee","offer_id":29740603015250,"sku":"","price":1164.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/0381\/8066\/products\/CROSSING_THE_JORDAN_40x60_d7a18a54-eebc-470e-8758-cd721b69abc1.JPG?v=1565647682"},{"product_id":"crossing-the-red-sea-note-cards","title":"Crossing the Red Sea Note Cards","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCrossing the Red Sea Note Cards\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eby Rosemarie Adcock\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eCrossing the Red Sea by Rosemarie Adcock depicts the Exodus led by Moses, and the miraculous parting of the waters of the Red Sea. The people crossed over on dry land as the waters parted like a wall on either side of them, to the right and to the left. However, when the Egyptians who were in pursuit tried to do the same thing, the waters came back upon them and they all drowned. The 4 people are passing the standing waters on dry ground with various types of fish swimming in the wall of water behind them. The chains of their slavery lie on the ground to the left. The figure furthest to the left looks back in fear at the Egyptians. The next figure delights at the fish staring at him and pokes his finger into the standing wall of water. The third figure, representing Doubt, hasn’t quite grasped the idea that the waters of the Red Sea have parted in order for her to cross and she's not drowning. The figure furthest to the right represents people of faith and courage as she dances with the fruit of the Promised Land in her arms, the promise awaiting after the Red Sea is crossed by the entire nation.

The wilted and drying rose hints at the length of the journey, yet the facial expression is one of peace, implied by the Greek word in the golden letters, which is written as the name on the boat. The Greek word for Endurance is not the way we often think of enduring, in other words, tolerating or putting up with something. Rather, the Greek word for endurance implies a hopeful and expectant waiting for something, which is the very thing that carries us through a difficult unknown, expecting a good outcome at the end of the long journey. This expectancy is the very thing that gives us a sense of peaceful and resting endurance. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cpre data-hook=\"description\" class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e","brand":"Chapel Galleries","offers":[{"title":"single card","offer_id":46538924785831,"sku":"","price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 card set","offer_id":46538928685223,"sku":"","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 card set","offer_id":46538929897639,"sku":"","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/0381\/8066\/products\/A._Endurance-RA-oil-48x24_0791eae4-7398-4977-9792-a701394bef7b.jpg?v=1565649401"},{"product_id":"perfect-peace-and-broken-peace-note-cards","title":"Perfect Peace and Broken Peace Note Cards","description":"\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect Peace and Broken Peace Note Cards\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eby Rosemarie Adcock \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePeace, also known as Perfect Peace Broken Peace by Rosemarie Adcock is an allegorical painting showing 2 young women holding peace lilies.

And in some circumstances is truly a miracle and therefore a testimony of God’s presence in our lives no matter what our circumstances may be, knowing that God has all power to control the outcome of any circumstance, and we are never hidden from His sight. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cpre data-hook=\"description\" class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e\n\u003cpre data-hook=\"description\" class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e","brand":"Chapel Galleries","offers":[{"title":"Single Card with Envelope","offer_id":46539491311783,"sku":"","price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set of 5 cards with envelopes","offer_id":29741014909010,"sku":"","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set of 10 cards with envelopes","offer_id":29741014941778,"sku":"","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/0381\/8066\/products\/D._Perfect_Peace-RA-oil-30x24_11402888-1d13-49ef-a5a5-fab47c571b38.JPG?v=1565649980"},{"product_id":"psalm-23-in-the-presence-of-my-enemies-note-cards","title":"Psalm 23-In the Presence of My Enemies Note Cards","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003ePsalm 23-In the Presence of My Enemies\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eby Rosemarie Adcock\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Thou preparest a table before me \u003cbr\u003ein the presence of mine enemies.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ePsalm 23\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the Presence of My Enemies, a 24\" x 48\" oil painting by Rosemarie Adcock, is a representation of a verse from what is probably the most well-known and beloved of Psalms, Psalm 23.

The painting, like the Psalm, speaks of God’s provision and care even during times of danger and difficulty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cpre data-hook=\"description\" class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e\n\u003cpre data-hook=\"description\" class=\"_28cEs\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e","brand":"Chapel Galleries","offers":[{"title":"Single Card with Envelope","offer_id":46539637260455,"sku":"","price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set of 5 cards with envelopes","offer_id":29741036011602,"sku":"","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set of 10 cards with envelopes","offer_id":29741036044370,"sku":"","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/0381\/8066\/products\/5._In_the_presence_of_MyEnemies_24x48_9ec29437-1f1c-413c-b477-8adf53a83a5b.jpg?v=1565650508"},{"product_id":"the-arrival-of-jonah-at-nineveh-note-cards","title":"The Arrival of Jonah at Nineveh Note Cards","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Arrival of Jonah at Nineveh Note Cards\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eby Rosemarie Adcock\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"For just as Jonah was three days and three nights\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003ein the belly of the sea monster,\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eso shall the Son of Man be three days and three nights\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003ein the heart of the earth.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eMatthew 12:40\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the\\is very large painting by Rosemarie Adcock we see the figure of Jonah spilling out of the mouth of the fish, onto a sandy shore. Nineveh was still a distance from this shoreline, so Jonah had to walk on foot until he completed his journey. Jonah was instructed by God to go to the great city and preach repentance to the people, who were known to be ruthless and cruel. Wanting that these evil people should be judged and destroyed rather than they have an opportunity for God to forgive them, Jonah refused to go to Nineveh, and instead paid the fare for a ship sailing in the other direction to Tarshish. But the real price of the refusing God's instructions cost Jonah more than just the fare!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDuring a deadly storm, Jonah knew he was the one endangering everyone on board the ship because he was running from God. Finally, the sailors threw Jonah overboard, and the Bible says the Lord appointed a great fish, which swallowed Jonah whole. Jonah remained in the belly of the fish for three days and three nights until the fish vomited him onto the shoreline where God had originally instructed him to go.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen asked for a sign of His authority, Jesus said there would be no sign given except the \"sign of Jonah\", predicting that after His own death he would be raised to life in 3 days.

This man was called by God to leave his family and go to a place that God was to show him, difficult enough to be far from family and friends, but certainly more so in ancient times without the assurance of basic food and water. Abraham was a wealthy man, but for all his wealth the one thing he didn't have was a child, even though God had spoken to him of having many descendants. In his old age, when all hope was long gone, finally, by a miracle, a son Isaac was born to him and his aging wife.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe day came that God instructed Abraham to sacrifice the young man, an unthinkable act practiced by the pagans of his ancient culture, yet in utter obedience (likely in complete horror) Abraham prepared to do exactly that, knife raised, until an angel stopped him and declared he shouldn't harm the boy. In that very moment, Abraham saw that there was a ram caught in some branches, which was to be the sacrifice God provided in place of the precious son Isaac. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe artist chose to call the painting The Restoration of Isaac because essentially, in the mind of the father, the boy was already sacrificed; the decision had been made to give him up; he was willing to give up everything and anything God required of him. The part of this story that has always been so precious to me is the part that speaks of God's faithfulness to us even today, the restoration of the very thing we gave up on, the thing truly dead to us, brought back to life.

How often I wanted to gather your children together, the way a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were unwilling. Behold, your house is being left to you desolate!

Symbols of the Trinity are embroidered into His garments, the garments themselves are purple, a sign of royalty. A woman in the background is touching Jesus, our reachable, touchable, King; a gesture that would have been totally unacceptable in that culture. In fact it was unacceptable for a man to speak to a woman publicly, yet He did so to the Samaritan woman at the well when He declared Himself to be the Messiah for whom the world was waiting, the One who could forgive even the most humiliated of outcasts, making the way for inclusion into God’s family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cpre class=\"_28cEs\" data-hook=\"description\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e\n\u003cpre class=\"_28cEs\" data-hook=\"description\"\u003e\u003c\/pre\u003e","brand":"Chapel Galleries","offers":[{"title":"Single Card with envelope","offer_id":46539714429095,"sku":"","price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set of 5 cards with envelopes","offer_id":29741131792466,"sku":"","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set of 10 cards with envelopes","offer_id":29741131825234,"sku":"","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/0381\/8066\/products\/Triumphal_Entry_40_x_60_5cb41c48-72c8-458a-b722-24440eb58003.jpg?v=1565651759"},{"product_id":"mother-and-child-giclee","title":"Mother and Child Archival Canvas Giclee","description":"\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eMother and Child\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eby Rosemarie Adcock\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e16\" x 20\" giclee\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMother and Child, (Portrait of Lena and Her Son Michael) by Rosemarie Adcock.
