EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the moment when Jacob obtains the Blessing by Fraud, a pivotal scene from Genesis XXVII. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print transports us back to a time before Christ, specifically 1760 years before his birth.
The intricate details and expert craftsmanship of this engraving bring to life the deception and cunning of Jacob as he tricks his father Isaac into giving him the blessing meant for his brother Esau. The tension in the scene is palpable as we witness Jacob's deceitful actions unfold before our eyes.
This illustration was originally featured in Scripture History with the Lives of the Most Celebrated Apostles by E Miller in 1829, showcasing how biblical stories were brought to life through art during that time period. The black and white composition adds a timeless quality to this piece, emphasizing the moral complexity of Jacob's actions.
As we gaze upon this engraving, we are reminded of the enduring power of storytelling and art to convey important lessons and truths from ancient scriptures. Jacob's story serves as a cautionary tale about dishonesty and its consequences, making this print not only visually striking but also thought-provoking.
