Simeon Reverencing the Christ Child, by Greg K. Olsen


Joseph and Mary brought Jesus "to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord;.....And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout...And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.

And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law, Then took he him up n hi arms,and blessed God, and said, Lord now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to they word: For mine eyes have seen thy salvation....And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him." (Luke 2:22, 25-30, 33)

Jerusalem, by Eric Dowdle

"Awake, awake; put on they strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city." (Isaiah 52:1). From the words of David in the Old Testament to those of Christ in the New Testament, from teh teaching of Lehi in the Book of Mormon to those of the Prophet Joseph Smith in the Doctrine and Covenants, Jerusalem's sweep of influence includes the past, present and future.
