"How marvelously illumined the Bible becomes in the light of this ancient lamp!" The lamp's flame is captioned with the words: "THE BLESSED HOPE OF OUR LORD'S RETURN". The writing on the lamp says: "FIRST CENTURY CHRISTIANITY". The man studying the Bible is E. J. Pace: it's a self-portrait!

These 400+ Christian cartoons by E. J. Pace originally appeared in The Sunday School Times magazine between 1916 and 1925. Now safely preserved on the Internet Archive, you can browse this historic collection through his weekly teaching series, "The Lesson Cartoon for This Week."
