02 Samuel 18 - Ahimaaz runs
[File size: 0.38 MB] Downloaded: 2748 times
02 Samuel 18:23 ‘Ahimaaz son of Zadok said, "Come what may, I want to run." So Joab said, "Run!" Then Ahimaaz ran by way of the plain and outran the Cushite [who was running to King David to tell him of the death of his rebellious son Absalom.]’
This cartoon is set in a dark forest. Ahimaaz was a fast runner who took messages to the king. You can see the Cushite running off in the distance! I was inspired by the reference to running & thought it would make a good cartoon to celebrate the Olympic Games.

Galatians 05 - Cut up in race

Galatians 5:7 [The apostle Paul wrote to the church in Galatia] 'You were running a good race. Who cut in on you and kept you from obeying the truth?'
A literal picture of a spiritual observation - that someone can upset our walk (or run!) of faith. Here we see the central woman hurdler pushing another woman over in this Olympic athletics race.
Isaiah 25 - Prideful swimmer

Isaiah 25:11 'They will spread out their hands in it, as a swimmer spreads out his hands to swim. God will bring down their pride despite the cleverness of their hands.'
Isaiah was talking about the pride of the ancient people of Moab in this Bible verse. To illustrate the idea in Olympic terms, I have shown a swimmer missing the start of a swimming race because he is pridefully taking audience applause, rather than getting on with the event!
Ecclesiastes 03 - Hammer throwing

Ecclesiastes 3:1 & 6 'There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven ... a time to keep and a time to throw away... '
This is a famous quote about everything having its time. When I read “a time to throw away” I immediately thought of Olympic hammer throwing, although I have a war hammer being throw on a battlefield. Maybe that’s how the sport of hammer throwing started?!

Isaiah 22 - Shot put
[File size: 0.33 MB] Downloaded: 2791 times
Isaiah 22:17-18a '"Beware, the Lord is about to take firm hold of you and hurl you away, O you mighty man [Shebna, the treasurer or governor of the King’s palace]. He will roll you up tightly like a ball and throw you into a large country..." '
When I read “He will roll you up tightly like a ball and throw you...” I immediately thought of Olympic shot putting. The scripture talks about a man being thrown by the Lord God (due to his sin (wrong-doing)), so I have the shot put as a spherical man, being watched by a crowd!
