Jacob Folkema's 1791 etching, "Jonathan beklimt de door de Filistijnen bezette berg en Jonathan proeft honing op vastendag," depicts two scenes from the biblical story of Jonathan. The top scene portrays Jonathan scaling a mountain occupied by Philistines, while the bottom panel shows him tasting honey while breaking the fast of a religious day. The engraving's detail and the inclusion of descriptive captions contribute to a deeper understanding of the biblical narrative.
