Divine Gallery

The Gospel of Luke is rich in visual imagery, often likened to a gallery or painting. Luke is portrayed as an artist who paints vivid literary portraits of Jesus, emphasizing the visual over the auditory, unlike John’s Gospel. The stained-glass windows of Maynooth College Chapel visually reflect this Lukan narrative, depicting key events from Jesus’ life. Themes such as mercy, prayer, forgiveness, and humility are woven through the Gospel in narrative rather than doctrinal form. Luke’s theological insights emerge through story and encounter, offering a spirituality rooted in vision and experience—drawing readers into a journey of discipleship marked by grace and hope.
