His face has youthful features and has been painted with dense touches according the Byzantine tradition. Primarily, however, as our Church teaches, he protects the souls of the people who are eager to the Lord, from the attacks of the demons and their efforts to prevent souls in their course to God. Archangel Michael is the one who appeared to Abraham at Isaac’s sacrifice. Then to Lot when he redeemed him with his family from the Sodom disaster. He appeared to Jacob when he was saved by his brother Esau who wanted to murder him.When Lucifer, who belonged to the angels, rebelled because of his pride against God, a battalion of Angels detached from God and followed him. These angels, along with Lucifer, were persecuted and turned into demons. Then, Archangel Michael, with humiliation and allegiance to God, gathered and united the ranks of angels, shouting them \"Πρόσχωμεν\", that is, let us be careful not to fall from the light into the darkness like Lucifer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"TheHolyArt","offers":[{"title":"9x7cm (3.54 x 2.76 in.)","offer_id":53737516073301,"sku":"RED OUTLINE1aamazon-7234","price":15.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"12x10cm (4.72 x 3.94 in.)","offer_id":53737516106069,"sku":"RED OUTLINE2aamazon-7235","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"19x15cm (7.48 x 5.91 in.)","offer_id":53737516138837,"sku":"RED OUTLINE3aamazon-7236","price":27.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"25x20cm (9.84 x 7.87 in.)","offer_id":53737516171605,"sku":"RED OUTLINE4aamazon-7237","price":37.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/8115\/4983\/files\/Archangel-Michael-icon-Handmade-Greek-Orthodox-icon-of-St-Michael-Byzantine-art-wall-hanging-on-_1945_1.jpg?v=1726336273"},{"product_id":"saint-sozon-icon-handmade-greek-orthodox-icon-st-sozon-of-lemnos-byzantine-art-wall-hanging-on-wood-plaque-icon-religious-decor-300174153","title":"Saint Sozon icon, Handmade Greek Orthodox icon St Sozon of Lemnos, Byzantine art wall hanging on wood plaque icon, religious decor","description":"\u003cp\u003eBring the spiritual elegance of Byzantine art into your home with this exquisite, handmade Greek Orthodox icon of Saint Sozon.

He was born in Lykaonia and was a shepherd by trade. Other than that, we don’t actually know much about him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, we do know that once he did convert to Christianity, he was passionate about the beliefs. He often approached defending his beliefs with zeal, and was devoted to letting others know of the truth of Christianity. He was devoted to teaching those around him of the ills of idol worship and paganism. He even once entered a temple of Artemis, cut off a golden hand as part of an idol, and distributed the precious metal to the poor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis actions did eventually gain the notice of Christian persecutors.

Christ does not deny anyone his blessing and it was He who always approached alone not only the righteous, but also the misguided to stand by them and show them God's way. With his hand, therefore, he blesses the whole world, showing his boundless love for each one of us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandmade icon of Jesus Christ imprinted on premium quality aged putted hagiography canvas.

She conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit. She was cared for by her betrothed husband, Joseph, who took the child and his mother into his home as his own. One very strong tradition in the Orthodox Church holds that the birth of Jesus was also miraculous and left Mary's virginity intact as a sign; it is also the tradition of the Church that Joseph and Mary did not have relations after the birth of Jesus. She is also called Panagia, the \"All-Holy,\" indicating her closeness to God in her obedience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wonderful canvas icon has been crafted on solid natural wood and it was carved by hand. The creator of this icon has learned the canonization of iconography in workshops of the Monasteries of Mount Athos, where he was taught the technique of hagiography and the process of handmade artificial ageing, which bears the image with the representation of Virgin Mary \/ Panagia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a title for the Virgin Mary, Theotokos was recognized by the Orthodox Church at Third Ecumenical Council held at Ephesus in 431. It had already been in use for some time in the devotional and liturgical life of the Church. The theological significance of the title is to emphasize that Mary's son, Jesus, is fully God, as well as fully human, and that Jesus' two natures (divine and human) were united in a single Person of the Trinity. The competing view at that council was that Mary should be called Christotokos instead, meaning \"Birth-giver to Christ.\" This was the view advocated by Nestorius, then Patriarch of Constantinople. The intent behind calling her Christotokos was to restrict her role to be only the mother of \"Christ's humanity\" and not his divine nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNestorius' view was anathematized by the Council as heresy, (see Nestorianism), since it was considered to be dividing Jesus into two distinct persons, one who was Son of Mary, and another, the divine nature, who was not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"TheHolyArt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41937945067687,"sku":"2amazon7142","price":106.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/8115\/4983\/products\/Virgin-Mary-icon_-Handmade-Greek-Orthodox-Icon_-Mother-of-God-Byzantine-art-wall-hanging_-Theotokos-wood-plaque-30x21cm_-religious-decor-TheHolyArt-1657436064.jpg?v=1726336276"},{"product_id":"saint-dionysius-of-zakynthos-icon-handmade-silver-greek-orthodox-icon-of-st-dionysios-byzantine-art-wall-hanging-religious-wood-plaque-300173732","title":"Saint Dionysius of Zakynthos icon, Handmade Silver Greek Orthodox icon of St Dionysios, Byzantine art wall hanging religious wood plaque - Handmade Greek Icon","description":"\u003cp\u003eBring the spiritual elegance of Byzantine art into your home with this exquisite, handmade Greek Orthodox icon of Saint Dionysius of Zakynthos.

He excelled in theology, became a monk in 1568, received his first degree of ordination as a priest in 1570 as Daniel; he later became hieromonk of Zakynthos and Strofades. In 1577 he was raised to Archbishop of Aegina and Poros and after a year abdicated from this dignity and settled in Zakynthos as an abbot of a monastery. In December 17, 1622 he fell asleep in the Lord. He had asked to be buried in this monastery and his grave is still to be found in the chapel of St George; a dependent of the monastery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has been found that his body remains intact and emits a mixed fragrance of flowers and frankincense. Therefore he is venerated, and his sainthood has been proclaimed by the Patriarch of Constantinople.

When St. Dionysius asked him why he was being pursued, the man told him that he had killed a man. The murderer did not know that he had killed the saint's own beloved brother Constantine. St. Dionysius was very grieved but hid the man and did not surrender him to the law. Instead he instructed him and brought him to repentance.

His face has youthful features and has been painted with dense touches according the Byzantine tradition. Primarily, however, as our Church teaches, he protects the souls of the people who are eager to the Lord, from the attacks of the demons and their efforts to prevent souls in their course to God. Archangel Michael is the one who appeared to Abraham at Isaac’s sacrifice. Then to Lot when he redeemed him with his family from the Sodom disaster. He appeared to Jacob when he was saved by his brother Esau who wanted to murder him.When Lucifer, who belonged to the angels, rebelled because of his pride against God, a battalion of Angels detached from God and followed him. These angels, along with Lucifer, were persecuted and turned into demons. Then, Archangel Michael, with humiliation and allegiance to God, gathered and united the ranks of angels, shouting them \"Πρόσχωμεν\", that is, let us be careful not to fall from the light into the darkness like Lucifer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"TheHolyArt","offers":[{"title":"7x10cm (2.76 x 3.94 in.)","offer_id":53737509880149,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7097","price":15.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"11x15cm (4.33 x 5.91 in.)","offer_id":53737509912917,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7098","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"15x21cm (5.91 x 8.27 in.)","offer_id":53737509945685,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7099","price":27.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"20x27cm (7.87 x 10.63 in.)","offer_id":53737509978453,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7100","price":37.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"30x40cm (11.81 x 15.75 in.)","offer_id":53737510011221,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7101","price":67.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"35x45cm (13.78 x 17.72 in.)","offer_id":53737510043989,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7102","price":81.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"40x50cm (15.75 x 19.68 in.)","offer_id":53737510076757,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7103","price":103.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/8115\/4983\/files\/il-fullxfull-3368288888-110y-_1.jpg?v=1726336282"},{"product_id":"jesus-christ-icon-handmade-greek-orthodox-icon-byzantine-art-wall-hanging-of-our-lord-on-wood-plaque-religious-decor-300173674","title":"Jesus Christ icon, Handmade Greek Orthodox icon, Byzantine art wall hanging of our Lord on wood plaque, religious decor - Catholic Icon","description":"\u003cp\u003eBring the spiritual elegance of Byzantine art into your home with this exquisite, handmade Greek Orthodox icon of Jesus Christ.

Critics of Procopius—whose work reveals a man seriously disillusioned regarding his rulers and out to defame them—have dismissed his work as vitriolic and pornograpic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is believed by some scholars that sometime before meeting Justinian she became an adherent of Monophysite Christianity, which claims Christ was of one nature, remaining their partisan throughout her life. Others instead argue that her association with Monophysitism is largely because of Justinian's putting her in charge of courting the Monophysites' reunion with the Chalcedonian party in the Church, and so while remaining Chalcedonian herself, she was pastorally favorable toward the non-Chalcedonians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 523 Theodora married Justinian, the magister militum praesentalis in Constantinople. On his accession to the Roman Imperial throne in 527 as Justinian I, he made her joint ruler of the empire, and appears to have regarded her as a full partner in their rulership. This proved to be a wise decision. A strong-willed woman, she showed a notable talent for governance. In the Nika riots of 532, her advice and leadership for a strong (and militant) response caused the riot to be quelled and probably saved the empire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"TheHolyArt","offers":[{"title":"7x10cm (2.76 x 3.94 in.)","offer_id":53737508438357,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7051","price":15.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"11x15cm (4.33 x 5.91 in.)","offer_id":53737508471125,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7052","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"15x21cm (5.91 x 8.27 in.)","offer_id":53737508503893,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7053","price":27.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"20x27cm (7.87 x 10.63 in.)","offer_id":53737508536661,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7054","price":37.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"30x40cm (11.81 x 15.75 in.)","offer_id":53737508569429,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7055","price":67.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"35x45cm (13.78 x 17.72 in.)","offer_id":53737508602197,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7056","price":81.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"40x50cm (15.75 x 19.68 in.)","offer_id":53737508634965,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7057","price":103.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/8115\/4983\/products\/il_fullxfull.3328158713_6b3s.jpg?v=1726336287"},{"product_id":"saint-zenobia-icon-handmade-greek-orthodox-icon-of-st-zinovia-byzantine-art-wall-hanging-icon-on-wood-plaque-religious-decor-300174328","title":"Saint Zenobia icon, Handmade Greek Orthodox icon of St Zinovia, Byzantine art wall hanging icon on wood plaque, religious decor - Byzantine Icon","description":"\u003cp\u003eBring the spiritual elegance of Byzantine art into your home with this exquisite, handmade Greek Orthodox icon of Saint Zenobia.

He was well educated. His father, Theodore, was secretary to the emperor Constantine V Copronymus, a iconoclast. Theodore, however, was an iconodule and came into conflict with the emperor who removed him from his position and then had him scourged and tortured before banishing him. Thus, Nicephorus grew up with his father's example of defending the veneration of the images before his eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Constantine VI and Irene came to the imperial throne and restored the use of sacred images in churches, Nicephorus came to their notice and soon obtained their favor and was placed in his father's former position. He distinguished himself greatly by his zeal against the Iconoclasts. He also was secretary to the Seventh Ecumenical Council. After the death of Patriarch Tarasius of Constantinople on February 25, 806, no one was found more worthy to succeed him than Nicephorus. To give an authentic testimony of his faith, during the time of his consecration he held in his hand a treatise he had written in defense of holy images, and after the ceremony was concluded, he laid it in back the altar as a pledge that he would always maintain the tradition of the Church.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"TheHolyArt","offers":[{"title":"7x10cm (2.76 x 3.94 in.)","offer_id":53737505489237,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7033","price":15.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"11x15cm (4.33 x 5.91 in.)","offer_id":53737505522005,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7034","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"15x21cm (5.91 x 8.27 in.)","offer_id":53737505554773,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7035","price":27.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"20x27cm (7.87 x 10.63 in.)","offer_id":53737505587541,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7036","price":37.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"30x40cm (11.81 x 15.75 in.)","offer_id":53737505620309,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7037","price":67.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"35x45cm (13.78 x 17.72 in.)","offer_id":53737505653077,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7038","price":81.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"40x50cm (15.75 x 19.68 in.)","offer_id":53737505685845,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-7039","price":103.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/8115\/4983\/products\/il_fullxfull.3329913923_c6h9.jpg?v=1726336290"},{"product_id":"palm-sunday-jesus-christ-icon-handmade-greek-orthodox-icon-of-jesus-christ-triumphal-entry-byzantine-art-wall-hanging-on-wood-plaque-icon-300173817","title":"Palm Sunday Jesus Christ icon, Handmade Greek Orthodox icon of Jesus Christ Triumphal Entry, Byzantine art wall hanging on wood plaque icon - Byzantine Icon","description":"\u003cp\u003eBring the spiritual elegance of Byzantine art into your home with this exquisite, handmade Greek Orthodox icon of Palm Sunday Jesus Christ.

A mere few days before His crucifixion, Jesus Christ was received by adoring throngs at his entry into Jerusalem on the back of a young donkey. The believers meet him, and spread out before him his clothes and olive branches. When He and His students approached the city Jerusalem, He ordered them to go to the near-by village, and bring him the donkey and his little who were tied-up in the beginning of the village. If they were asked, they should say that this was God's will. When the people knew that the donkey was for Jesus, they did not prevent his students. They gave Him the donkey, and He solemnly entered Jerusalem. The news of the resurrection of Lazarus already got ahead and thousands of people went to Bethany to meet him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Orthodox celebrate this day with joy, but with the realization that very sad events are soon to come. Orthodox peoples who live in areas without palms, including the Russian Orthodox, use pussy willow branches rather than palms in the celebration of this event. Therefore in Russian Church this feast and is called Вербное (Pussy Willow) Воскресенье (Sunday).

Converted to Christianity through a vision, she denounced Maxentius for persecuting Christians. Fifty of her converts were then burned to death by Maxentius. Maxentius offered Catherine a royal marriage if she would deny the Faith. Her refusal landed her in prison. While in prison, and while Maxentius was away, Catherine converted Maxentius' wife and two hundred of his soldiers. He had them all put to death.St. Catherine was likewise condemned to death. She was put on a spiked wheel, and when the wheel broke, she was beheaded. For this reason these saint icons picture her with a spiked wheel. She is venerated as the patroness of philosophers and preachers.

One such innuendo is the appearance of God to Abraham, in the form of three messengers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs we are told by the Book of Genesis (18,1), while Abraham was seated near the oak trees of Mambre where he had pitched his tent, he was visited by three men, totally unknown to him. The Patriarch welcomed them openheartedly and lovingly, albeit they were total strangers. He then prepared a sumptuous meal for them. During their conversation, the strange visitors announced to Abraham that his wife Sarah would give birth to a child within that year, which was indeed fulfilled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this biblical event, the Fathers of the Church saw a pre-defining of the mystery of the Holy Trinity, which was fully revealed in the New Testament. This is why the event of Abraham's Hospitality was portrayed from a very early stage. As the biblical event unfolds, the two of the three men later appear as angels: \" Two angels came to Sodom at dusk \" (Genesis 19,1), which is the reason the three figures seated at Abraham's table are depicted in their angelic form. Besides, this is another ideal way to denote that the three men are heavenly visitors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe superiority of the central angel was predominant in many icons of the Hospitality. This is attributed to the interpretation given by several Fathers of the Church (John the Chrysostom, John the Damascene), as well as other ecclesiastic authors ( Justin, Tertullian, Theodoretus Kyrou) on this other Epiphany. They saw in the Hospitality of Abraham the person of Jesus Christ, accompanied by two angel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"TheHolyArt","offers":[{"title":"7x10cm (2.76 x 3.94 in.)","offer_id":53737502835029,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-6947","price":15.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"11x15cm (4.33 x 5.91 in.)","offer_id":53737502867797,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-6948","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"15x21cm (5.91 x 8.27 in.)","offer_id":53737502900565,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-6949","price":27.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"20x27cm (7.87 x 10.63 in.)","offer_id":53737502933333,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-6950","price":37.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"30x40cm (11.81 x 15.75 in.)","offer_id":53737502966101,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-6951","price":67.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"35x45cm (13.78 x 17.72 in.)","offer_id":53737502998869,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-6952","price":81.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"40x50cm (15.75 x 19.68 in.)","offer_id":53737503031637,"sku":"RED OUTLINEamazon-6953","price":103.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/8115\/4983\/files\/il-fullxfull-3329909113-qdzm-_1.jpg?v=1726336293"},{"product_id":"saint-constantine-icon-saint-helen-icon-handmade-greek-christian-orthodox-icon-st-constantine-and-helen-byzantine-art-wall-hanging-300173654","title":"Saint Constantine icon \u0026 Saint Helen icon, Handmade Greek Christian Orthodox Icon, St Constantine and Helen Byzantine art wall hanging - Orthodox Supplies","description":"\u003cp\u003eBring the spiritual elegance of Byzantine art into your home with this exquisite, handmade Greek Orthodox icon of Saint Constantine  \u0026amp; Saint Helen.

The abbot noticed that the face of Virgin Mary came alive while Jesus raised his right hand and tried to cover with it the mouth of Virgin Mary saying: “No my mother, punish them as they deserve it” . But Virgin Mary grasped the hand of her Son and turning her head away from it, in order to free her mouth, she repeated the same words. The latter arrangement is depicted on this icon. The monks, after being miraculously saved by the pirates, thanked Virgin Mary. They named the icon Paramythia, which means “calming down” or restrain.The icon is a wall-painting and is on the right choir of the chapel named after it.

Then there was a voice from heaven saying “do not be afraid of George, for I am with you” and an angel freed the saint by healing his wounds.Then they threw George into a pit with lime and water to dissolve his bones.

She is also called Panagia, the \"All-Holy,\" indicating her closeness to God in her obedience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a title for the Virgin Mary, Theotokos was recognized by the Orthodox Church at Third Ecumenical Council held at Ephesus in 431. It had already been in use for some time in the devotional and liturgical life of the Church. The theological significance of the title is to emphasize that Mary's son, Jesus, is fully God, as well as fully human, and that Jesus' two natures (divine and human) were united in a single Person of the Trinity. The competing view at that council was that Mary should be called Christotokos instead, meaning \"Birth-giver to Christ.\" This was the view advocated by Nestorius, then Patriarch of Constantinople. The intent behind calling her Christotokos was to restrict her role to be only the mother of \"Christ's humanity\" and not his divine nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNestorius' view was anathematized by the Council as heresy, (see Nestorianism), since it was considered to be dividing Jesus into tw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"TheHolyArt","offers":[{"title":"20x14cm (7.87 x 5.51 in.)","offer_id":53737501983061,"sku":"10amazon6906","price":39.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"24x14cm (9.45 x 5.51 in.)","offer_id":53737502015829,"sku":"10amazon6907","price":43.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"30x14cm (11.81 x 5.51 in.)","offer_id":53737502048597,"sku":"10amazon6908","price":48.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/8115\/4983\/products\/il_fullxfull.3356972255_myy6.jpg?v=1726336292"},{"product_id":"jesus-christ-icon-pantocrator-virgin-mary-icon-glykophilousa-diptych-handmade-greek-orthodox-icon-byzantine-art-wall-hanging-22-x-16-cm-300174101","title":"Jesus Christ icon Pantocrator Virgin Mary icon Glykophilousa diptych, Handmade Greek Orthodox icon, Byzantine art wall hanging 22x16cm","description":"\u003cp\u003eBring the spiritual elegance of Byzantine art into your home with this exquisite, handmade Greek Orthodox icon of Jesus Christ  Pantocrator Virgin Mary  Glykophilousa diptych.

The Israelites were commanded to sacrifice an unblemished lamb and smear the blood of that lamb on the doorposts of their homes. The blood would be the sign for the Angel of Death to “pass over” that house, leaving those covered by blood in safety.

Although he first lived with a \"company of virtuous men,\" soon a miracle the holy man performed, fixing a broken vessel, attracted attention. He fled once again and took up residence in a mountain cave at Subiaco, near the site of a villa built by Nero. Here St. Benedict lived in continual prayer and asceticism for three years. Eventually, God allowed his fame to spread once again, and he was asked by a nearby community of monks to become their abbot. The saint reluctantly agreed. However, the men rebelled against his ascetic directions and attempted to poison him. St. Benedict was unharmed, because as he made the sign of the cross over the poisoned drink, the cup shattered. He returned to his cave. Gradually individuals began to come to live near him at Subiaco, and in the end St. Benedict built twelve monasteries for these spiritual children, living himself at a thirteenth, Monte Cassino.

The Israelites were commanded to sacrifice an unblemished lamb and smear the blood of that lamb on the doorposts of their homes. The blood would be the sign for the Angel of Death to “pass over” that house, leaving those covered by blood in safety. When Jesus came to John to be baptized, John recognized Him and cried, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!” (John 1:29), thereby identifying Him and God’s plan for Him to be sacrificed for sin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"TheHolyArt","offers":[{"title":"38x25cm (14.96 x 9.84 in.)","offer_id":53737501000021,"sku":"A9 A10amazon-6845","price":81.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"52x28cm (20.47 x 11.02 in.)","offer_id":53737501032789,"sku":"A9 A10amazon-6846","price":103.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/8115\/4983\/products\/il_fullxfull.3546427731_p8gw.jpg?v=1726336297"},{"product_id":"saint-sussana-icon-handmade-greek-orthodox-icon-st-susan-byzantine-art-wall-hanging-on-wood-plaque-icon-religious-decor-300174029","title":"Saint Sussana icon, Handmade Greek Orthodox icon St Susan, Byzantine art wall hanging on wood plaque icon, religious decor","description":"\u003cp\u003eBring the spiritual elegance of Byzantine art into your home with this exquisite, handmade Greek Orthodox icon of Saint Sussana.

Diocletian, wishing to obtain the consent of this very beautiful maiden to marry his favorite, Maximian, sent a certain Claudius, another member of her family, to propose the espousals. She refused to consent, making known to her father and Saint Caius her vow, and saying that even if she had not resolved to conserve her chastity, she would not wish to marry a man responsible for the massacre of an infinite number of Christians.

She conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit. She was cared for by her betrothed husband, Joseph, who took the child and his mother into his home as his own. One very strong tradition in the Orthodox Church holds that the birth of Jesus was also miraculous and left Mary's virginity intact as a sign; it is also the tradition of the Church that Joseph and Mary did not have relations after the birth of Jesus. She is also called Panagia, the \"All-Holy,\" indicating her closeness to God in her obedience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a title for the Virgin Mary, Theotokos was recognized by the Orthodox Church at Third Ecumenical Council held at Ephesus in 431. It had already been in use for some time in the devotional and liturgical life of the Church. The theological significance of the title is to emphasize that Mary's son, Jesus, is fully God, as well as fully human, and that Jesus' two natures (divine and human) were united in a single Person of the Trinity. The competing view at that council was that Mary should be called Christotokos instead, meaning \"Birth-giver to Christ.\" This was the view advocated by Nestorius, then Patriarch of Constantinople. The intent behind calling her Christotokos was to restrict her role to be only the mother of \"Christ's humanity\" and not his divine nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNestorius' view was anathematized by the Council as heresy, (see.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"TheHolyArt","offers":[{"title":"17x17cm (6.69 x 6.69 in.)","offer_id":53737500311893,"sku":"2amazon6819","price":36.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"24x24cm (9.45 x 9.45 in.)","offer_id":53737500344661,"sku":"2amazon6820","price":43.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/8115\/4983\/products\/il_fullxfull.3327293549_rf8t.jpg?v=1726336298"},{"product_id":"saint-anthony-icon-handmade-greek-orthodox-icon-of-saint-antonius-byzantine-art-wall-hanging-wood-plaque-icon-religious-decor-300174026","title":"Saint Anthony icon, Handmade Greek Orthodox icon of Saint Antonius, Byzantine art wall hanging wood plaque icon, religious decor - Catholic Icon","description":"\u003cp\u003eBring the spiritual elegance of Byzantine art into your home with this exquisite, handmade Greek Orthodox icon of Saint Anthony.

Distributing to the poor all he had, and fleeing from all the turmoil of the world, he departed to the desert. The manifold temptations he endured continually for the span of twenty years are incredible. His ascetic struggles by day and by night, whereby he mortified the uprisings of the passions and attained to the height of dispassion, surpass the bounds of nature; and the report of his deeds of virtue drew such a multitude to follow him that the desert was transformed into a city, while he became, so to speak, the governor, lawgiver, and master-trainer of all the citizens of this newly-formed city.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Significance of Saint Anthony\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cities of the world also enjoyed the fruit of his virtue.

In the Christian Church, the candle is put in frοnt οf the sacred icοn. The οne lοcated in frοnt οf the Crucified , in the sanctuary, is always kept alight and that is why it is called the “ vigilant” candle. A candle is alsο put in the hοuse’s reredοs and accοrding tο the traditiοn it is lighted every day. It is a habit that maintains its deep Christian symbοlism with the Light οf Christ which enlightens every man , warms the hοpe, cοnsοles and keeps cοmpany tο οur endless hοurs οf lοneliness. The lightning οf the candle symbοlizes that this is an οffer as a sacrifice οf respect and hοnοr tο the Gοd and his Saints. It symbοlizes the Christ’s light which enlightens every man but it alsο symbοlizes the well knοwn Lοrd’s οrder tο be Christians , the lights οf the wοrld.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe οil which is burnt in οur candles as Saint Simeοn οf Thessalοniki has written, is the Gοd’s mercy which was shοwn when Nοah’s dοve came back tο the ark tο shοw the end οf the cataclysm , having a branch οf an οlive tree in its beak, οr when Jesus during His prayers was watering the οlive tree with the drοps οf His sweat, as He was kneeling under it, that martyr night οn the Mοunt οf Οlives. Οf cοurse, we all knοw hοw infinitely mοre superiοr the internal and mental enlightenment is than the material οne. The Gοdbearer pater Gregοry οf Nanzianzus has written : “ Enlighten yοur wοrds” and his annοtatοr added :” Has it been managed” ?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe οil symbοlizes the Gοd’s mercy but the candles symbοlize the Church which transmits it and enlightens us.

His face is painted scrawny and dark skinned in order to declare the intense heat of the desert.
