Presentation 2018

Details from Mosaic of the Presentation in the Temple, Marko Rupnik.
"Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother,'Behold, this child is destined
for the fall and rise of many in Israel,
and to be a sign that will be contradicted
—and you yourself a sword will pierce—
so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed'"
(Luke 2:34-35).
