Illustration from "La Sainte Bible : Ancien Testament . . . / Compositions par J.-James Tissot"; with preface by Antonin Gilbert Sertillanges (1863-1948), introduction by Maurice de Brunoff (1861-1937) and the translation into French of Isaac-Louis Lemaistre de Saci (1613-1684). 2 volumes. Paris: M. de Brunoff & Cie, 1904. The illustrations were originated by James Tissot (1836-1902) who sketched as he read Scripture.
The edition, of which 561 copies were printed, contains 360 mounted colour, black-and-white and duo-tone illustrations in the text and 40 plates in three states: sepia-tone, partly hand-coloured, and finished coloured state. The plates are protected with captioned tissue-guards. The paper size is 15.75 x 13 ins; image size varies (circa 8.5 x 5.5 ins).
The paintings for all 400 Illustrations were based exclusively on the complete sketches (the inspiration being entirely Tissot's). The first 200 illustrations covering the Book of Genesis through to the story of Jephthah's daughter in the Book of Judges were painted by Tissot. The last remaining 200 illustrations were painted after Tissot's death in 1902 by Henri Bellery-Desfontaines, Auguste François Gorguet, Charles Hoffbauer, Louis van Parys, Michel Simonidy and Georges Bertin Scott.

Today I thought of water. All day the Holy Sprit kept on prompting me to think about water, and I didnt realise until late in the day when I had got home; that this was something the Lord wanted me to look into.
The first time I thought of water was in drama. We had to come up with a piece of theatre of the absurd drama to show a feeling/view/opinion and make the audience think. The other group in our drama class came up with the idea of "what we take for granted, other people need" and they based their performance on water, and thirsty people in Africa in need of this lush water to keep them alive and healthy. We take water for granted so, so often.
The second time was around lunchtime. I skived general studies *woops* and instead went into town with my friends. With my money I bought an absurd amount of snacks, crisps, chips and generally unhealthy produce. At lunchtime I was going crazy for a drink of water. Running around the common room looking for something I could put water in, and kicking myself as I had spent all of my money on rubbish food, so hadnt any money to buy water from the cafeteria... But... my gorgeous friend Rachael lent me some money...
My thirst was solved.
The last time I felt like the Holy Spirit was prompting me to think of water and it's relevance was at home. I've started getting into the routine of going home, puttnig on some worship music, then at 5 I will watch "friends" until dinner at 6. I was listening to some HILLSONG, and had a cup of water in my hand. To solve my slight boredom I invented a new game; where you get one single solitary drop of water onto your finger, and hold your hand up as you watch it slowly crawl down your hand and arm. It is such a strange sensation! But relaxing.
See, now I have spent about 4 paragraphs explaining the importance of water to me today. Yet I havenmt explained the relevance of water in relation to Jesus, my Saviour!!
Revelation 21:6 should explain it all. :)
God bless you!
