EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Judas Iscariot bargaining with the Chief Priests" transports us to a pivotal moment in biblical history. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures the intensity and drama of Matthew XXVI, verses 14 and 15. In this scene from the Gospel of St. Matthew, we witness Judas Iscariot engaging in a fateful negotiation with the Chief Priests. The composition skillfully portrays their clandestine meeting as they discuss Jesus' fate behind closed doors. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this engraving. From the expressions on each character's face to their body language, we can almost feel the weight of their decision hanging in the air. The use of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to this powerful image. Originally created as an illustration for Cassells Illustrated Family Bible Superior Edition around 1880, this artwork serves as a visual aid for those seeking deeper understanding of New Testament stories. It reminds us that even within sacred texts lie complex narratives filled with moral dilemmas and human frailties. As we gaze upon this print, let us reflect on our own choices and actions. May it serve as a reminder that our decisions have consequences – both intended and unintended – just like those faced by Judas Iscariot all those centuries ago.
