On page 10 there are two panels showing how people will pray in the future, after they learn what Jesus has to teach. This first panel shows a Samaritan family praying around the table before a meal.

This is the second of two panels on page 9. In the story, Jesus and the woman are discussing how their people pray, and this panel shows how Jewish men pray at The Second Temple. (If you look close, you might notice that only the men are going up into the temple.)
I had to use historical references to draw the temple because the actual temple was destroyed in 70 CE. Luckily, I found some archeological drawings and photos of models depicting what The Second Temple was supposed to have looked like.

Pages 9 and 10 are drawn with panels instead of the two-page spread I’ve used so far. This is the first of two panels on page 9. It shows some Samaritans climbing Mount Gerizim to pray.
In the story, Jesus and the woman are discussing how their people pray, and this panel shows how Samaritans pray three times a year on Mount Gerizim.
