Let Children come to me


Matthew 19, 13 - 15

Then were there brought unto him little children, that he shouldput his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebukedthem. But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid themnot, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.

Mark 10, 13 - 16

And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them:and his disciples rebuked those that brought them. But when Jesussaw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein. And he took them up in his arms, put hishands upon them, and blessed them.

Luke 18, 15 - 17

And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touchthem: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them. ButJesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children tocome unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdomof God. Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive thekingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.

The Magdeburg panel, Ottonian, around 965 CE. Ivory panel with a scene from the gospel of Saint Luke: Christ and a group of disciples meet a bier being carried out of the city gate. The background is pierced with equal-armed crosses.
The panel would have been backed with gold or copper and is one of sixteen depicting scenes from the Life of Christ, originally in the cathedral at Magdeburg, Germany. The mounting was destroyed around the middle of the 11th,
when plaques from the series were incorporated into the book cover of a codex. The panel was made in Milan.
