In reflecting upon Charles de la Fosse’s depiction of the Finding of Moses and the passages we explore today, it becomes apparent that the Old and New Testaments are not distinct in their witness to God’s mercy and love. The parallels between the missions of Jesus, Moses, and Elijah are remarkable. Moses liberated the Hebrews from slavery; Elijah liberated Israel from idolatry, and through Christ, we find liberation from the fearful grip of sin and death. The artwork showcased here goes beyond mere happenstance surrounding the infancy of Moses. Moses’ escape foreshadowed the eventual freedom of the Hebrew people, mirroring Christ’s escape from Herod, which ultimately signifies the salvation of the entire world.
