About 376 Catholic Orthodox Wooden Resurrection Of Christ
On the back of the triptych there is Russian Text - here is Translation Jesus Christ our Lord was predicted by the prophets, to rise from the dead on the third day after his burial. The Resurrection of the Lord is the foundation of our Christian faith and the most joyful day for Christians. The Feast of the Resurrection is the oldest Christian holiday; it is the Feast or Feasts and the Celebration of Celebrations. “Pascha” is the Jewish word for “Exodus.” The Old Testament “Pascha” is a commemoration of the “exodus” from Egypt and deliverance from slavery. The New Testament “Pascha” is a celebration of deliverance from slavery – the slavery of sin. Troparion In Tone 6 Thy resurrection, O Christ our Saviour, the angels in heaven sing. Make us also who are on earth worthy to gloify thee with a pure heart. Troparion in Tone 5 Christ is risen from the dead trampling down death by death and upon those in the tombs bestowing life. The Feast of the Resurrection is really two feasts: (1) Christ’s Decent Into Hell to release the bonds of Hates and (2) His physical resurrection from the dead. CENTRAL PANEL: The glorified risen Christ holding a banner with the life giving Cross in his left hand. “IC XC” the first letters of His name in Greek are on either side of him. Christ is standing on an X shaped Cross over hell. His hand is extended to our forefather Adam and Eve on the other side. The text above Christ in Russian is “Christ’s Resurrection.” This icon triptych combines the main elements of both feasts – showing Christ raising our forefathers (Adam and Eve) and His physical Resurrection. LEFT PANEL: The Prophet John the Baptist, a female representing the righteous females of the Old Testament and a King representing Solomon and David RIGHT PANEL: Moses with the Tablets of the Law, our Father in Faith Abraham and Noah with the Ark in his hands.
