Some key features of the Resurrection Icon on cover page
Christrsquos caperobe is flowing upward this symbolizes his radical descent into Hades to save those who have
died in the flesh
The golden bars by his feet are the gates of Hades which he has broken and torn apart There are keys
floating in the abyss below which symbolizes that he has entered and conquered both death and Hades
You may also note the skeletal figure who is chained up that is Death andor Satan He has been bound
and killed by Christ which is why all throughout Pascha we sing ldquoChrist has trampled down death by
deathrdquo The icon depicts Hebrews 214 ldquothat through death he might destroy him who has the power of
death that is the devilrdquo The power of the devil and death have been destroyed through the life-giving
death of our Savior
The two figures whom Christ has grasped and is pulling from tombs are Adam and Eve symbolizing that
his victory redeems all mankind even back to the beginning It also foreshadows the general resurrection
of the body before the Final Judgment
To the left we see three characters David and Solomon two of his ancestors according to his fleshly
nature We also see closest to him John the Baptizer who was his forerunner in both life and death
The figures on the right vary from icon to icon Initially I was told that they generic representatives for
those who are presently alive but after further research I have discovered that all of the characters (on the
left and right) are Old Testament prophets and saints Moses is usually depicted on the right as well as
other prophets Additionally there are the three youth who went into the fiery furnace and a shepherd the
latter of which may depict the ones who first venerated our Lord at His birth
The blue shape around Christ is called the Mandorla (which is Italian for almond which describes its
shape) The Mandorla is the uncreated eternal light of Christ In the writings of the Eastern Orthodox
mystics God is often prayerfully experienced as light This is not simply a pretty bright light It is the
same light which filled the apostles with wonder when they witnessed His Transfiguration It is the light
which Christ Himself described as the power of the Kingdom of God (Mark 91 Matt 1628 Luke 927) It
is the light that filled the once perpetual darkness of Hades when Christ descended and brought life into the
realm of death It is also the light that is seen when one purifies their heart and mind (Blessed are the pure
in heart for they shall see God)
The Mandorla becomes progressively darker as it moves toward its center which is Christ If God is
represented by light the Mandorla may seem confusing However those who seek God will find that the
more they know Him the less they comprehend Him To know God to experience Him is to walk in the
darkness of His light to enter into the mystery of His presence
One of the key things to remember is that icons are not meant to be ldquophoto recordingsrdquo of what
happened These are symbolic tools that assists us in comprehension of the gospel truth through our sense of
sight

floating in the abyss below which symbolizes that he has entered and conquered both death and Hades
You may also note the skeletal figure who is chained up that is Death andor Satan He has been bound
and killed by Christ which is why all throughout Pascha we sing ldquoChrist has trampled down death by
deathrdquo The icon depicts Hebrews 214 ldquothat through death he might destroy him who has the power of
death that is the devilrdquo The power of the devil and death have been destroyed through the life-giving
death of our Savior
The two figures whom Christ has grasped and is pulling from tombs are Adam and Eve symbolizing that
his victory redeems all mankind even back to the beginning It also foreshadows the general resurrection
of the body before the Final Judgment
To the left we see three characters David and Solomon two of his ancestors according to his fleshly
nature We also see closest to him John the Baptizer who was his forerunner in both life and death
The figures on the right vary from icon to icon Initially I was told that they generic representatives for
those who are presently alive but after further research I have discovered that all of the characters (on the
left and right) are Old Testament prophets and saints Moses is usually depicted on the right as well as
other prophets Additionally there are the three youth who went into the fiery furnace and a shepherd the
latter of which may depict the ones who first venerated our Lord at His birth
The blue shape around Christ is called the Mandorla (which is Italian for almond which describes its
shape) The Mandorla is the uncreated eternal light of Christ In the writings of the Eastern Orthodox
mystics God is often prayerfully experienced as light This is not simply a pretty bright light It is the
same light which filled the apostles with wonder when they witnessed His Transfiguration It is the light
which Christ Himself described as the power of the Kingdom of God (Mark 91 Matt 1628 Luke 927) It
is the light that filled the once perpetual darkness of Hades when Christ descended and brought life into the
realm of death It is also the light that is seen when one purifies their heart and mind (Blessed are the pure
in heart for they shall see God)
The Mandorla becomes progressively darker as it moves toward its center which is Christ If God is
represented by light the Mandorla may seem confusing However those who seek God will find that the
more they know Him the less they comprehend Him To know God to experience Him is to walk in the
darkness of His light to enter into the mystery of His presence
One of the key things to remember is that icons are not meant to be ldquophoto recordingsrdquo of what
happened These are symbolic tools that assists us in comprehension of the gospel truth through our sense of
sight

Some key features of the Resurrection Icon on cover page
Christrsquos caperobe is flowing upward this symbolizes his radical descent into Hades to save those who have
died in the flesh
The golden bars by his feet are the gates of Hades which he has broken and torn apart There are keys
floating in the abyss below which symbolizes that he has entered and conquered both death and Hades
You may also note the skeletal figure who is chained up that is Death andor Satan He has been bound
and killed by Christ which is why all throughout Pascha we sing ldquoChrist has trampled down death by
deathrdquo The icon depicts Hebrews 214 ldquothat through death he might destroy him who has the power of
death that is the devilrdquo The power of the devil and death have been destroyed through the life-giving
death of our Savior
The two figures whom Christ has grasped and is pulling from tombs are Adam and Eve symbolizing that
his victory redeems all mankind even back to the beginning It also foreshadows the general resurrection
of the body before the Final Judgment
To the left we see three characters David and Solomon two of his ancestors according to his fleshly
nature We also see closest to him John the Baptizer who was his forerunner in both life and death
The figures on the right vary from icon to icon Initially I was told that they generic representatives for
those who are presently alive but after further research I have discovered that all of the characters (on the
left and right) are Old Testament prophets and saints Moses is usually depicted on the right as well as
other prophets Additionally there are the three youth who went into the fiery furnace and a shepherd the
latter of which may depict the ones who first venerated our Lord at His birth
The blue shape around Christ is called the Mandorla (which is Italian for almond which describes its
shape) The Mandorla is the uncreated eternal light of Christ In the writings of the Eastern Orthodox
mystics God is often prayerfully experienced as light This is not simply a pretty bright light It is the
same light which filled the apostles with wonder when they witnessed His Transfiguration It is the light
which Christ Himself described as the power of the Kingdom of God (Mark 91 Matt 1628 Luke 927) It
is the light that filled the once perpetual darkness of Hades when Christ descended and brought life into the
realm of death It is also the light that is seen when one purifies their heart and mind (Blessed are the pure
in heart for they shall see God)
The Mandorla becomes progressively darker as it moves toward its center which is Christ If God is
represented by light the Mandorla may seem confusing However those who seek God will find that the
more they know Him the less they comprehend Him To know God to experience Him is to walk in the
darkness of His light to enter into the mystery of His presence
One of the key things to remember is that icons are not meant to be ldquophoto recordingsrdquo of what
happened These are symbolic tools that assists us in comprehension of the gospel truth through our sense of
sight

his victory redeems all mankind even back to the beginning It also foreshadows the general resurrection
of the body before the Final Judgment
To the left we see three characters David and Solomon two of his ancestors according to his fleshly
nature We also see closest to him John the Baptizer who was his forerunner in both life and death
The figures on the right vary from icon to icon Initially I was told that they generic representatives for
those who are presently alive but after further research I have discovered that all of the characters (on the
left and right) are Old Testament prophets and saints Moses is usually depicted on the right as well as
other prophets Additionally there are the three youth who went into the fiery furnace and a shepherd the
latter of which may depict the ones who first venerated our Lord at His birth
The blue shape around Christ is called the Mandorla (which is Italian for almond which describes its
shape) The Mandorla is the uncreated eternal light of Christ In the writings of the Eastern Orthodox
mystics God is often prayerfully experienced as light This is not simply a pretty bright light It is the
same light which filled the apostles with wonder when they witnessed His Transfiguration It is the light
which Christ Himself described as the power of the Kingdom of God (Mark 91 Matt 1628 Luke 927) It
is the light that filled the once perpetual darkness of Hades when Christ descended and brought life into the
realm of death It is also the light that is seen when one purifies their heart and mind (Blessed are the pure
in heart for they shall see God)
The Mandorla becomes progressively darker as it moves toward its center which is Christ If God is
represented by light the Mandorla may seem confusing However those who seek God will find that the
more they know Him the less they comprehend Him To know God to experience Him is to walk in the
darkness of His light to enter into the mystery of His presence
One of the key things to remember is that icons are not meant to be ldquophoto recordingsrdquo of what
happened These are symbolic tools that assists us in comprehension of the gospel truth through our sense of
sight

Some key features of the Resurrection Icon on cover page
Christrsquos caperobe is flowing upward this symbolizes his radical descent into Hades to save those who have
died in the flesh
The golden bars by his feet are the gates of Hades which he has broken and torn apart There are keys
floating in the abyss below which symbolizes that he has entered and conquered both death and Hades
You may also note the skeletal figure who is chained up that is Death andor Satan He has been bound
and killed by Christ which is why all throughout Pascha we sing ldquoChrist has trampled down death by
deathrdquo The icon depicts Hebrews 214 ldquothat through death he might destroy him who has the power of
death that is the devilrdquo The power of the devil and death have been destroyed through the life-giving
death of our Savior
The two figures whom Christ has grasped and is pulling from tombs are Adam and Eve symbolizing that
his victory redeems all mankind even back to the beginning It also foreshadows the general resurrection
of the body before the Final Judgment
To the left we see three characters David and Solomon two of his ancestors according to his fleshly
nature We also see closest to him John the Baptizer who was his forerunner in both life and death
The figures on the right vary from icon to icon Initially I was told that they generic representatives for
those who are presently alive but after further research I have discovered that all of the characters (on the
left and right) are Old Testament prophets and saints Moses is usually depicted on the right as well as
other prophets Additionally there are the three youth who went into the fiery furnace and a shepherd the
latter of which may depict the ones who first venerated our Lord at His birth

and killed by Christ which is why all throughout Pascha we sing ldquoChrist has trampled down death by
deathrdquo The icon depicts Hebrews 214 ldquothat through death he might destroy him who has the power of
death that is the devilrdquo The power of the devil and death have been destroyed through the life-giving
death of our Savior
The two figures whom Christ has grasped and is pulling from tombs are Adam and Eve symbolizing that
his victory redeems all mankind even back to the beginning It also foreshadows the general resurrection
of the body before the Final Judgment
To the left we see three characters David and Solomon two of his ancestors according to his fleshly
nature We also see closest to him John the Baptizer who was his forerunner in both life and death
The figures on the right vary from icon to icon Initially I was told that they generic representatives for
those who are presently alive but after further research I have discovered that all of the characters (on the
left and right) are Old Testament prophets and saints Moses is usually depicted on the right as well as
other prophets Additionally there are the three youth who went into the fiery furnace and a shepherd the
latter of which may depict the ones who first venerated our Lord at His birth
The blue shape around Christ is called the Mandorla (which is Italian for almond which describes its
shape) The Mandorla is the uncreated eternal light of Christ In the writings of the Eastern Orthodox
mystics God is often prayerfully experienced as light This is not simply a pretty bright light It is the
same light which filled the apostles with wonder when they witnessed His Transfiguration It is the light
which Christ Himself described as the power of the Kingdom of God (Mark 91 Matt 1628 Luke 927) It
is the light that filled the once perpetual darkness of Hades when Christ descended and brought life into the
realm of death It is also the light that is seen when one purifies their heart and mind (Blessed are the pure
in heart for they shall see God)
The Mandorla becomes progressively darker as it moves toward its center which is Christ If God is
represented by light the Mandorla may seem confusing However those who seek God will find that the
more they know Him the less they comprehend Him To know God to experience Him is to walk in the
darkness of His light to enter into the mystery of His presence
One of the key things to remember is that icons are not meant to be ldquophoto recordingsrdquo of what
happened These are symbolic tools that assists us in comprehension of the gospel truth through our sense of
sight

Some key features of the Resurrection Icon on cover page
Christrsquos caperobe is flowing upward this symbolizes his radical descent into Hades to save those who have
died in the flesh
The golden bars by his feet are the gates of Hades which he has broken and torn apart There are keys
floating in the abyss below which symbolizes that he has entered and conquered both death and Hades
You may also note the skeletal figure who is chained up that is Death andor Satan He has been bound
and killed by Christ which is why all throughout Pascha we sing ldquoChrist has trampled down death by
deathrdquo The icon depicts Hebrews 214 ldquothat through death he might destroy him who has the power of
death that is the devilrdquo The power of the devil and death have been destroyed through the life-giving
death of our Savior
