Sapphira stands in ancient dress with both hands extended, her face caught in a startled reply. The scene draws from Acts 5:7-8, when she enters after the death of Ananias and is questioned by Peter about the price of the land they sold. Her open palms and speaking expression focus the moment on accountability before God and the danger of deceit within the early church. The passage teaches that the sin was not the sale itself, but the false witness offered before the apostles and the Holy Spirit. This artwork is suited for sermons, Bible lessons, and teaching materials on honesty, hypocrisy, stewardship, church discipline, and the holiness of God among His people.
