Africa African Bible Book Coptic Ethiopia Reading Sacred
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Philippe Lissac from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are transported to the enchanting town of Lalibela in Ethiopia. The image captures a powerful moment of faith as an adult man engrosses himself in reading outside a church, surrounded by the spiritual aura that permeates the air. The scene exudes a sense of tranquility and devotion, with the man's unwavering focus on his sacred book reflecting his deep connection to Christianity. As he immerses himself in scripture, one can almost feel the weight of centuries-old traditions and beliefs resting upon his shoulders. Lalibela is renowned for its rock-hewn churches, which hold immense significance for both Coptic Christians and Roman Catholics alike. This particular church stands as a testament to Africa's rich religious heritage and serves as a gathering place for believers seeking solace, guidance, and communion with God. The photograph beautifully captures not only the physical surroundings but also the intangible essence of spirituality that pervades every inch of Lalibela. It reminds us that faith knows no boundaries or limitations; it transcends cultures and continents. As we gaze at this image, we cannot help but be moved by the profound commitment displayed by this faithful reader. His presence serves as an inspiration to all who witness it—a reminder that even amidst life's challenges, finding solace in our beliefs can provide strength and hope. Through Lissac's lens, we are invited into this sacred space where religion intertwines
