Salbung der Lippen

Daniel kneels in prayer as a radiant heavenly hand reaches from the glory and touches his lips. His lifted eyes, folded hands, and reverent posture portray the moment when the prophet is strengthened to speak after an overwhelming vision. The golden light surrounding the hand suggests divine presence and angelic ministry, while the touch upon the mouth recalls the biblical theme of God consecrating His servants for holy speech. This artwork draws from Daniel 10, where Daniel is humbled before a heavenly messenger and receives strength to answer. The scene emphasizes that prophetic understanding is not self-produced; it is given by God. The touched lips symbolize a restored voice, prayerful obedience, and the sacred responsibility of speaking what heaven reveals.
