Kuponywa kwa Mwana wa Ofisa (La guérison du fils de l'officier)

James Tissot · 1886–1894
Brooklyn Museum, New York

Ofisa wa mfalme anakuja kwa Yesu kupitia soko lililoezekwa, lenye vibanda, nyama inayoning'inia na vikapu chini ya maturubai. Tissot alimvika kama mtu mkubwa wa Mashariki, akiwa na kofia ndefu nyekundu na ya dhahabu na joho lenye pindo, na wahudumu wawili nyuma yake.

Anaunganisha mikono yake na kutazama chini, akisubiri. Yesu, akiwa amevaa kijivu na nyeupe, amesimama kati ya wanafunzi wake upande wa kulia na kuinua kidole kimoja anapozungumza.

Kutoka maandiko

Ofisa ambaye mwanawe alikuwa mgonjwa huko Kapernaumu (Yohana 4:46)

“Nenda,” Yesu akasema, “mwanao ni mzima.” (Yohana 4:50)
