EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the pivotal moment when Matthew (Levi) is called upon to become a disciple of Jesus Christ. The image, taken from the Bible by William Brassey Hole, beautifully depicts this significant event in biblical history. In the foreground, we see Matthew, also known as Levi, seated at his place of toll as a tax collector. Suddenly, Jesus approaches him and utters those life-altering words: "Follow me". It is at this precise moment that Matthew's destiny takes an extraordinary turn. The artist skillfully portrays the emotions on Matthew's face - surprise mixed with curiosity and perhaps even apprehension. Yet without hesitation or reservation, he forsakes all worldly attachments and rises up to follow Jesus. This act of faith exemplifies the transformative power of encountering Christ. Matthew's decision to become a disciple not only signifies his personal journey but also symbolizes the universal call for believers to leave behind their old lives and embrace a new path guided by faith. Through this image, we are reminded of the profound impact that encounters with Jesus can have on individuals' lives. As viewers engage with this powerful artwork, they are invited to reflect upon their own spiritual journeys and consider how they too can respond courageously when called upon by God.
