Sanhedrin'e konuşma

Stephen stands before the assembled Sanhedrin, raising his hand as he gives bold testimony before Israel’s religious council. Around him sit elders and rulers in council robes, listening from a curved tribunal as the accused servant of the early church speaks with authority. The setting evokes the trial recorded in Acts, where Stephen, full of faith and the Holy Spirit, answers charges brought against him and proclaims the faithfulness of God through Israel’s history. His lifted finger points beyond human judgment toward divine truth, foreshadowing his vision of the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God. This artwork is suited for teaching on Christian witness, persecution, courage before authorities, the early church, and the cost of faithful gospel proclamation.
