EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Pannemaker, as featured in Gustave Dore's 'The Bible in Pictures,' depicts the dramatic biblical episode of Heliodorus, the Syrian minister of King Seleucus IV Philopator, being expelled from the Temple of Jerusalem by heavenly messengers in the 2nd century BC. According to the Old Testament, Heliodorus had attempted to seize the treasures of the Temple, an act that was met with divine intervention. In this stunningly detailed image, we see Heliodorus being driven out of the temple interior, surrounded by a fantastical scene of furious animals and otherworldly beings. The colorful depiction adds to the sense of otherworldly wonder and religious significance of the event. This historical scene is a testament to the rich religious and cultural history of the ancient world, and continues to captivate and inspire viewers to this day.
