This is a further painting of the The Gospel of John series 1,4, created in 1997. Inside the 18 rays 18 Hebrew words are written. The title of the painting "And the Life was the Light of Man" is written between the spaces of the rays in English.

After this painting, which hurts the rules of the Count-Art style, because the brush strokes are not counted, the work on the John series broke off and also painting at all. But there are 18 rays because chaj, or chet-jod, which is a Hebrew word for life, has a figure equivalent of 18.
