Graphic Bible · Scene 5 of 6

The narrator bows his head over two open hands on supported stone.
Artwork is an interpretation, not authenticated portraits,places or events. The anonymous dark-curly narrator, prayer gestures, clothing, sky, landscapes, leaves, water and ungerminated seed are disclosed visual staging. God, divine face/body/hand,throne occupant and divine feet remain unpictured. No specific angels or modern people are identified as guilty. The petitions do not become pictures of completed destruction, named survivors,an answered prayer or miraculous seed growth. The images distinguish the plea to spare a remnant in 84:5 from the petition in 84:6. See the notes on “sovereign power” in 84:2 and the wording about wisdom and the throne in 84:3. The images do not establish a manuscript reading. Disclosed prayer,landscape and seed-metaphor staging
