The Hand of God

At the heart of the narrative of the Martyrs of Israel (2 Maccabees, chapter 7), faith, elevated to the level of sublime love, transforms death into birth into eternal life. Faced with the persecution of Antiochus IV, a heroic mother and her seven sons choose fidelity to divine Law rather than material survival, thus embodying the promise of resurrection.
