St John the Baptist

Description
"As they came down from the mountain the disciples put this question to Jesus, ‘Why do the scribes say then that Elijah has to come first?’ ‘True;’ he replied ‘Elijah is to come to see that everything is once more as it should be; however, I tell you that Elijah has come already and they did not recognise him but treated him as they pleased; and the Son of Man will suffer similarly at their hands.’ The disciples understood then that he had been speaking of John the Baptist." - Matthew 17:10-13, the Gospel for the 2nd Saturday in Advent. Detail from the retable in St John the Baptist's church in Newcastle. -
