Creator: Christ Church (Philadelphia, Pa.) and Dorr, Benjamin, 1796-1869 Date: 1859/1867 Contributing Institution: Christ Church, Philadelphia, PA Description: Reverend Benjamin Dorr served as rector for Christ Church from 1839 to 1868, and undertook the difficult job of holding the congregation together during the Civil War. This sermon lays out Reverend Dorr's thoughts on Luke 4:25 and 4:26, "But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land; but to none of them was Elijah sent, save unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow." Dorr narrates the visit of the prophet Elijah/Elias to a widow outside of Sarepta, a Phoenician town in what is now Lebanon. A severe famine has sent Israel into distress and mourning, but God directs Elijah to visit a humble unbeliever with a generous heart. Of particular interest is the travel narrative that Dorr includes in his sermon, which recalls a trip that he and his son made to the Near East where they traced Elijah's route. He made many edits to his remarks about their journey over time. The inside front cover notes five dates Reverend Dorr delivered this sermon, from 1859 to 1867.

Illuminated images from Armenian Gospels
User CollectionCreator: Tʻoros Tarōnatsʻi, active 14th century Contributing Institution: Hartford Seminary Library Description: The collection consists of the full-page illuminations from two Armenian manuscripts of the four Gospels. One vellum manuscript, created between A.D. 1307-1331, contains 300 folios and measures 25.5 x 18.5 cm. This manuscript was created at the monastery of Noravank` by the scribe Momik, who was assisted by the vardapet Pawlos. These two scribes completed most of the writing by 1307. Another scribe, Yohanes, completed it when Momik developed a problem with his eyes. The miniatures and illuminations are painted in brilliant colors against a gold background, by Torso Taronac`i. Taronac`i is well known through his work in a number of manuscripts that have survived. A second vellum manuscript, created ca. A.D. 1656, contains 291 folios and measures 20 x 14.5 cm. This manuscript was written by the scribe, Nicholas. -
