Picture:  Judas from  Das Newe Testament Deuotzsch.  The image is from Martin Luther’s (1483-1546) September Testament.  Two men attempt to kill a bird on a pole. The first with a bow and arrow and the second by blowing a pellet out of a tube. This is an image of the term “judas bird” in which a bird acts as a trap for hunted birds. Woodcut 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 [email protected].  These images are made available by the generous contribution of Thrivent Financial for Lutherans Foundation.
