Saul Anointed
A standing elder lifts a vessel over the head of a kneeling man beside a wall and stone steps. The printed caption names the scene Saul Anointed. Bennett places the image within his account of Israel’s early rulers, allowing the gesture of anointing to carry the episode. It is a later book illustration rather than a portrait made from life.
