Goya did not give titles to the paintings, or if he did, he never revealed them. Most names used for them are designations employed by art historians

Goya is the one I like probably the most

How can God understand what it's like to be finite? You could say Jesus, being a part of the trinity, understands what it's like to be finite, but does he even count? Lets suspend our disbelief and pretend that Jesus really did ascend and that he was the son of god. Does his experience as a human being even count when he knew full and well that there was an afterlife? He requires no faith, he knows that there is a Kingdom in heaven and he knows that he'll be returning to rule over it eternally. Returning to my initial question, how could God possibly understand the concept of finality and time constrains when he is an infinite being? He can't die, he has no end, which makes me wonder if infinite beings are as confounded by finality as finite beings are as confounded by infinity.
