The image captures their intense focus and dedication to their monumental task. Each individual plays a crucial role in ensuring that the sacred text is accurately translated into Chinese, bridging cultural gaps and making it accessible to a wider audience. The composition exudes a sense of unity and shared purpose as these men come together across different backgrounds and nationalities for a common cause.
