Description

Jesus stands beneath a stone archway at a waterfront tax station, extending His call to Matthew, the tax collector seated among ledgers, coins, scales, soldiers, and bystanders. Behind them, boats rest along the shore of the Sea of Galilee, placing the encounter within the daily commerce of first-century life. The moment captures the turning point when Matthew leaves his booth and his former identity to become a disciple of Christ.

The scene reflects the Gospel witness that Jesus did not avoid those despised by religious society. By calling a tax collector, He reveals the mercy of God toward sinners and the authority of His invitation: “Follow me.” This artwork is well suited for teaching on discipleship, repentance, grace, evangelism, and the calling of ordinary people into the kingdom of God.

Scriptures	Luke 5:27-32 Mark 2:13-17 Matthew 9:9-13 Luke 5 27 After this he went out and saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the tax booth. And he said to him, “Follow me.” 28 And leaving everything, he rose and followed him. 29 And Levi made him a great feast in his house, and there was a large company of tax collectors and others reclining at table with them. 30 And the Pharisees and their scribes grumbled at his disciples, saying, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?” 31 And Jesus answered them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. 32 I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.” Mark 2 13 He went out again beside the sea, and all the crowd was coming to him, and he was teaching them. 14 And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax booth, and he said to him, “Follow me.” And he rose and followed him. 15 And as he reclined at table in his house, many tax collectors and sinners were reclining with Jesus and his disciples, for there were many who followed him. 16 And the scribes of the Pharisees, when they saw that he was eating with sinners and tax collectors, said to his disciples, “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?” 17 And when Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.” Matthew 9 9 As Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax booth, and he said to him, “Follow me.” And he rose and followed him. 10 And as Jesus reclined at table in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and were reclining with Jesus and his disciples. 11 And when the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?” 12 But when he heard it, he said, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. 13 Go and learn what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.’ For I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.”
