EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Jacob blessing Ephraim and Manasseh" takes us back to biblical times as we witness a profound moment of familial love and divine intervention. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures a scene from the Book of Genesis. In this powerful image, Jacob, the patriarch of Israel, bestows his blessings upon his grandsons Ephraim and Manasseh. The tender expression on Jacob's face reveals his deep affection for these two young boys who represent future generations. With one hand resting gently on each child's head, he imparts not only his earthly blessings but also invokes God's favor upon them. The significance of this event lies not only in its familial context but also in its spiritual implications. Through this act of benediction, Jacob symbolically sanctifies Ephraim and Manasseh, setting them apart for a special purpose within God's plan. As we contemplate this engraving today, it serves as a reminder that our actions have far-reaching consequences beyond our immediate circumstances. It encourages us to seek opportunities to bless others with kind words or gestures that can bring about positive change in their lives. With its intricate details and rich symbolism drawn from the Old Testament stories found within the Hebrew Bible, this print invites us to reflect upon themes such as blessedness and sanctification while reminding us of the timeless wisdom contained within the pages of scripture.
