Der Prophet schreibt

An aged prophet sits beside a flowing river, bending over a parchment scroll with a feather quill in hand. His long white hair and dark robe give the scene the gravity of an ancient messenger recording the word entrusted to him. The wilderness riverbank, dry brush, sandals, scroll, and quill place the moment in the world of Israel’s prophets and scribes, where revelation was preserved for God’s people through written testimony.

The image reflects the biblical pattern of the prophet as both hearer and recorder: the Lord commands His servants to write the vision, preserve the warning, and make His word plain for future generations. It is well suited for ministry themes of prophecy, Scripture, obedience, revelation, study, teaching, and the faithful transmission of God’s message.
