Picture: The Two Witnesses from Das Newe Testament Deuotzsch.  The image is from Martin Luther’s (1483-1546) September Testament. Revelation 11-In the background John measures the temple and the altar as instructed, while in the foreground two powerful witnesses prophesy. The beast from the bottomless pit waits for them to finish their testimony, so that he may kill them. The images from Das Newe Testament Deuotzsch, the 1522 German New Testament by Dr. Martin Luther are taken from https://pitts.emory.edu/.  These woodcuts were designed by Lucas Cranach, the Elder (1472-1553), a close friend of Martin Luther. For information on licensing this image, please send an email, including a link to the image, to dia@emory.edu.  These images are made available by the generous contribution of Thrivent Financial for Lutherans Foundation.
