Who is The Apostles?
Several mature Jewish teachers in layered undyed linen and wool robes, earth-colored mantles, head-cloths or simple shawls, and leather sandals. Their beards, prayer scrolls, and calm seated silhouettes distinguish them as respected leaders in a plain limestone upper room; their faces shift from caution to thoughtful welcome.
Featured in 2 Bible Heroes storybooks, first appearing in Acts 9:1-31.
