Painting: William Bouguereau (1825-1905) Pieta |
And Simeon blessed them,
and said unto Mary his mother,
Behold this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against; Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also, that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.
"Then cast your sins from yourself upon Christ, believe with a festive spirit that your sins are his wounds and sufferings, that he carries them and makes satisfaction for them..." Martin Luther
