The Parables of Christ - The Parable of the Ten Virgins
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating chromolitho print that beautifully illustrates one of Jesus' most profound teachings. Created by an English School in the 19th century, this artwork showcases a scene from "The Little Ones Own Coloured Picture Paper" a publication aimed at educating children about biblical stories. In this image, we see ten virgins depicted as women and girls dressed in elegant robes, each holding a lamp. They stand outside a locked gate, anxiously waiting for the arrival of the bridegroom. As night falls, their lamps begin to flicker due to dwindling oil reserves. Five wise virgins are prepared with extra oil while five foolish ones have none. This parable from the Gospel of Matthew emphasizes the importance of being spiritually prepared and vigilant for Christ's return. It serves as a reminder that true faith requires both belief and action. The artist skillfully captures the tension and anticipation on each virgin's face as they realize their fate hinges on their level of readiness. Through vibrant colors and meticulous details, this print transports us back to biblical times, allowing us to reflect upon our own spiritual preparedness. "The Parables of Christ: The Parable of the Ten Virgins" is not only an exquisite piece but also serves as an invaluable tool for teaching Christian values and religious principles to children. Its timeless message continues to resonate with believers today, encouraging them to live faithfully and be ever watchful for God's coming kingdom.
