A biblical scene inspired by Judges 12:7 where Jephthah, a Middle-Eastern man with traditional attire of the time, is shown judging Israel. The scene lasts for a representation of six years, symbolized by different phases of the sun from sunrise to sunset happening six times. Following this, a representation of his peaceful passing is depicted with a solemn, respectful crowd of diverse men and women from Israel, ranging from Caucasians to Black. In the final part of the scene, Jephthah's burial in one of the cities of Gilead is shown, highlighting the architecture of the time. The image is evocative of colors and techniques used in illuminated manuscripts, a prominent artistic movement before the 20th century, but instead uses digital medium.
