Artist's Description
Sycamore trees grew abundantly on the low lands of Judea, and were very little esteemed; 1 Kings 10:27; 2 Chronicles 1:15; 2 Chronicles 9:27.
According to Isaiah 9:10, �The bricks have fallen, but we will build with hewn stones; the sycamores have been cut down, but we will put cedars in their place.� The language of this verse is figurative. Sun-dried bricks and the cheap timber of the sycamore (1Kings 10:27) were the common materials used for the dwellings of the poor, hewn stones and cedar for the palaces of the rich. The meaning is, that their former state was less splendid than they designed their subsequent state to be. Desolation had come in upon their country, and this they could not deny. But they confidently boasted that they would more than repair the ruined houses and walls with hewn stones.
This is a signed original work drawn in soft pastels on paper in the shade of an expansive, spreading sycamore tree near Ashdod, Israel.
