Pedro predica en Pentecostés

Peter stands above a gathered crowd in Jerusalem, one hand lifted toward heaven and the other held over his heart as he proclaims the risen Christ. Around him, men in Judean robes and head coverings listen, question, and turn toward one another, capturing the charged public moment after the Holy Spirit was poured out at Pentecost. The setting suggests a city courtyard or stairway, placing the sermon among the people rather than in a private room.

The artwork centers on Acts 2, when Peter stood with the apostles and explained that the wonders heard in Jerusalem fulfilled the prophet Joel: God was pouring out His Spirit, and salvation was offered to all who call on the name of the Lord. His preaching moves from the crucifixion to the resurrection and exaltation of Jesus, ending with the call to repent and be baptized. This subject is especially fitting for teaching on the birth of the Church, evangelism, Spirit-filled witness, repentance, baptism, and apostolic preaching.
