EDITORS COMMENTS
BETHANY: RUINS. Ruins of the House of Simon the Leper in Bethany, near Jerusalem. This hand-colored photograph from the 20th century transports us back to ancient times, capturing the essence of early Christianity and its connection to this holy land. The image showcases the exterior view of the House of Simon the Leper in Bethany, a place steeped in history and religious significance. The ruins stand as a testament to time's passage, with scattered rubble and weathered stones telling stories that span centuries. Amidst this desolation, a solitary tree stands tall, symbolizing resilience amidst decay. Bethany holds great importance within Christian tradition as it was here that Jesus performed miracles and shared profound teachings. This particular house is believed to be where Jesus dined with his disciples before his crucifixion—an event immortalized by Mary Magdalene anointing Jesus' feet with expensive perfume. The Granger Collection has beautifully captured this moment frozen in time—a reminder of our spiritual heritage and the enduring power of faith. As we gaze upon these ruins, we are reminded that even amidst destruction and decay, there is beauty to be found—both in physical remnants like these ruins themselves but also in our own ability to find strength through adversity.
