     Explanation: In Jeremiah 45 when Baruch complained about his affliction, the LORD told him not to live in the illusion of expecting great things for himself, but to expect to have his life delivered everywhere he went (1-5).
          Today's painting depicts the emotional impact of lost illusions, similar, perhaps, to the emotional impact which Baruch felt when his illusions were lost.

     1 The word that Jeremiah the prophet spake unto Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book at the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying, 2 Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, unto thee, O Baruch; 3 Thou didst say, Woe is me now! for the LORD hath added grief to my sorrow; I fainted in my sighing, and I find no rest. 4 Thus shalt thou say unto him, The LORD saith thus; Behold, that which I have built will I break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up, even this whole land. 5 And seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not: for, behold, I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith the LORD: but thy life will I give unto thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest.
