Fine Art Friday on Sunday?

Since today is Sunday, I thought that Fine Art Friday (a few days late!) should have a religious subject instead of a secular one. So today I'm featuring the paintings of the prophets by James Tissot. You can read a little bit about the artist here, in his Wikipedia entry. But you don't have to. You can just let the images speak for themselves.

Ezekiel

When the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive. Ezekiel 18:27

Micah

But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel. Micah 5:2

Malachi

But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings. Malachi 4:2

Jeremiah

Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! Jeremiah 15:10

Isaiah Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me. Isaiah 6:8
