This Gospel Book, with richly painted evangelist portraits, canon tables and marginal illuminations, was made in Armenia in the early seventeenth century. An extensive colophon reveals that it was commissioned by a woman named Napat' as a memorial for herself and her family, and the book was consequently given by her to the Church of Saint Sargis in Amida. The illuminator of the manuscript, Hovannes, was one of the most prolific among the artists and scribes at the Amida scriptorium. On the present codex he worked with the scribe Melk'on. Known collaborators, Hovannes and Melk'on executed a number of codices together.

If you are familiar with my photostream, you know I have a passion for churches, especially old ones. Perhaps I am a bit partial to them because of my Christian faith, as well as the fact that I have been a Baptist preacher for over twenty years.
Another thing that tends to catch my eye are church steeples. Every once in a while, one will just "stick out" and grab my attention. While photographing this church, my eyes were drawn to the steeple more than the structure. After adding a couple layers of texture, I added this verse that I thought was appropriate to go along with the photo. I hope you enjoy.

;;;;; O Lord my God, how great you are! You are robed with honor and majesty. You are dressed in a robe of light. You stretch out the starry curtain of the heavens: you lay out the rafters of your home in the rain clouds. You make the clouds your chariot; you ride upon the wings of the wind. Ps 104: 1-3

"People desperately seek truth and light. We can make a significant impact on individuals, relationships and societal structures if we will shine our spiritual light for others to see. As we experience God's deliverance in our lives, we can share God's LOVE with others and extend HOPE to hurting people." (Commentary from the SPIRITUAL RENEWAL BIBLE, Zondervan Publishing)
