Summary

Description
Zimri and Cozbi are slain by Phinehas. In this interpretation of chapter 25 of the Book of Numbers (Numbers 25), Phinehas killed the Israelite man Zimri and the Midianite princess Cozbi (Kozbi) (verse 7–8) as they were having sex in an ordinary tent in the Israelite military camp (verse 6) at Shittim near Mount Peor (verses 1–3). Outside the tents, people lay dead; apparently these are Israelites struck by the plague (verses 8–9). On the edge of the camp, soldiers stand on guard. Just outside the camp, a number of people are impaled (verse 4–5): the chiefs of the Israelite men, who engaged in sexual immorality with Moabite women and worshipped their gods (verse 1–3); this last act appears to be shown in the far background, with people on a mountain gathering around a pole, perhaps a Moabite godly idol. Engraving from Historie des Ouden en Nieuwen Testaments : verrykt met meer dan vierhonderd printverbeeldingen in koper gesneeden) ("History of the Old and New Testaments: enriched with more than four hundred printed illustrations cut in copper") (1700), published by David Martin in Amsterdam, Netherlands (then known as the Dutch Republic). David Martin (1639–1721) was a French Protestant theologian who, following the 1685 Edict of Nantes, had fled to the Netherlands and became a pastor at a Walloon Church there. This 1700 book with 420 engravings was printed by Pieter Mortier I (1661–1711), and therefore also known as "Mortier's Bible".

Public domain

The author died in 1721, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
